The Connecticut labor news., 1922-08-04

When this world was created, various sec tions seem to have been selected for the partcu- lar purpose of afording pleasure and enjoyment for mankind, and this is especially evident in this neighborhood, for the Shore Resorts-Savin Rock, Momauguin, and Lighthouse Point fur nish ideal playgrounds for the residents of New Haven and vicinity Endowed by nature with many advantages man has added numerous at- fractions for the enjoyment of all who care to visit these resorts and partake of the amuse- ments and pleasures offered.
 The sur prising feature is that SO large number of our people have failed to realize the opportunities offered To many a vacation of two weeks or more during the heated term is not to be even considered and they are prone to be- moan their hard luck. But this trouble is more imagined than real, for with the Shore Resorts so conveniently located, the entire summer can be vacation by little planning. ...-
 Transportation facilities are so convenient that it is no task to take the entire family at least once each week for an outing that will do much 10 reneVe the ualy gf1nQ Ana III 1I IS not POSSl- ble to spend the entire day at the Shore at least the evening can be spent in this way. And how it will be enjoyed, and how much fresher one will tackle the duties of the coming days. Tried a few times and this weekly trip will be looked forward to with pleasurable anticipation.
 New Haven is particularly blessed by hav- ing such advantages SO close at hand and local residents enjoy for trolley fare what others gladly travel many miles to secure. The remarkable fact is that greater numbers do not take advantage of the opportunities offered. While enjoying all the comforts and conven- fences of home, one can at the same time secure all the pleasures and delights of a vacation, as we'll as the benefits.
