When I see a picnic nowa
days it is, nearly always,
beside a highway. The com
pany engaged in it may be
having a good time —and if
they are satisfied, why
should anybody else com
plain?—but. in my view, the
closeness of the pavement,
the roar ox the cars whiz
zing by, and the fumes from
the gasoline impart a taint
of artificiality to the scene.
The mechanical age is in
truding upon nature. That
sort of picnic seems, in short,
sort of spurious.
There was something very
different from this, and de
lightfully old-fashioned,
about the gathering that my
wife and I came upon when
we went to Mrs. P. H. Win
ston’s down near the east
end of v the village just be
fore twilight last Saturday.
There under the trees, in
the soft spring air with a
clear sky above, the Win
stons were having a family
reunion; The company: the
hostess, Mrs. Winston; Rog
er Goiran, Mrs. Goiran (tht*
former Miss Carolyn Wins
ton) from Washington, and
their four children, Pierre,
Philip, Anne, and Jo-Lucie;
Mr. and Mrs. Pat Winston
from Greensboro, ami their
daughters, Phyllis and Sus

Winston, their son Barry
(with a pretty girl, name
unknown to me) and their
daughter Judy.
Mr. Goiran is in the U. S.
diplomatic service and has
served at many far-away
posts. He is now stationed
in Washington. Anne was
bori„ in Istanbul, Turkey, and
Jo-Lucie, named for her two
grandmothers, was born in
Tehran, Persia. Pierre and
