YATES After a few hours of sleep, the "Goodwill Tour" of Haywood 4-H ers left New York City via Har lem toward our destination?Pitts field, Mass. Among the observations that we made were the many rock fences surrounding lawns ? sometimes fields?fences about 3 feet high, which looked as if they had been placed there many years ago. The rocks, large and small, were care fully placed In the wall so that no cement was required. Too. the small fields, the well-kept lawns, painted barns attracted our atten tion. As we drove northward the air became cooler and the hills made us feel at home. We traveled north ward in New York almost parellel with the Connecticut State line un til we neared Canaan. Conn, There, a few miles out, we were met by a representative of the Canaan Chamber of Commerce who escorted us to a quaint res taurai<t for lunch. Rrservations had already been made and the menu chosen; so there was no de lay. The same is true of all our reservations. One amusing thing happened at (he Prince George Hotel in New York at breakfast time. Rservaf tions had been made but dining room management had been told ? hat a group of Boy Scouts were to have breakfast. Our group, half of which were girls, was puzzling! Every stop had been on schedule until noon of the third day. From Canaan, there was a distance of about 30 miles to reach Pittsfield and we were determined not to have the hosts wait a minute. A slight accident occurred when a New York car (driven by a woman!) pulled into us while we were wait ing at a traffic light. We were de layed about 30 minutes. We happily rolled into Pitts field where the Berkshire County 4-H leader met us and escorted us I to the General Electric Kitchen where we were welcomed by the ? mayor and were served refresh ments. Our happiness at being on schedule was dampened when we found they had been waiting one hour! We were observing Eastern . Standard Time; they. Daylight Saving! Berkshire is a large county with , several small towns and as our hosts and hostesses took us ? bag and baggage?into their automo biles. we soon became miles apart.! The hospitality with which we were greeted was akin to Southern hos-.! pitality. They have been most i gracious. Wednesday night and Thursday' we spent with our respective hosts. ! Varied forms of entertainment were planned with small groups?[ swimming, visiting places of inter-; est such as the Mohawk Trail, show places, the airport and the of fice of the American Institute of Economic Research at Great Bar-' rington. Mass. Great Barrington. we were told was the scene of the first open re sistance to the British Crown; also the spot on which the first Negro slave was auctioned. The court house. an old structure, was built in 1836. There are many industries in j the county of Berkshire, including! General Electric's biggest plant, | and a paper mill where paper is made from rags. The Square Dance Association of i Berkshire County entertained with i a partv Thursday night at Dalton ; in their new Community House. I i Around 150 people attended, and as the Tar Heels displayed their own peculiar trend of square danc ing in an exhibition, and the Mas sachusetts 4-H'ers did the same, jffieh learning from the other, there was a feeling that the Mason-Dixon Line had ceased to be. There was J one spirit?friendship. Friday the 4-H leaders group J sponsored a trip by city bus 60 miles from Pittsfield to Camp Howe, a trl-state 4-H camp, where all the North Carolinians were en FRANK RICH holds ? typical Hoc HI tic, which he has used in every annual shooting match at Catalooohee Ranch.
