Vacations are time of re-
freshment to the mind and to
the body. It is good to get away,
even from friends, for a time.
But thoughts go winging home
ward. And so - from our stay
in Vermont, as we enjoy the
soft air sitting through the tall,
slim trees and watch the lap
ping of the water and the boats
on Lake Hortonia, we think of
you people in the Germantown
area and of the activity buzzing
at the Montgomery County
Fair. Some news we can share
with you even from this dis
lance.
