Live, Love, Laugh, Learn Dominate Farm Women Rally LOU ANN GOOD Lancaster Farming Staff READING (Berks Co.) —“The City of Reading is the Pretzel Capi tol of the world,” said Ruth Wal ters, Berks County Farm Women president. For this reason, the Berks Socie ty of Farm Women, which hosted the annual Pennsylvania Society of Farm Women on Tuesday at the Riveredge Restaurant, thought it appropriate to have as its theme: “Mind, Body, Soul Entertwined Like A Pretzel That Keeps Us Whole.” About 600 members of the statewide group met for its annual spring rally. Dr. Leo Frangipane, surgeon at The Reading Hospital, reinforced the concept that mind and soul have a lot to do with the healing of the body. In his talk, “Live, Love, Laugh, and Leant,” Frangipane recounted numerous anecdotes in his work with cancer patients to examine why some survive years longer than expected. Some of his “secrets to life” include the following: * Get up every morning and do something you like. You’ll get old when you stop doing what you like. • Bring who you are to your job. He said this in reference to statis tics that show the majority of heart (Turn to Pag* B 16) The committee that planned the day’s event were made up of women who were pre vious Berks County presidents of the organization. Seated from left are Janet Schlegel, Lillian Zechman, Catherine Yanos, Mary Fizz, Ruth Walters, Ellen Snyder, Dorothy Strlckler. Carolyn Feeg, Wendy Lingle, Fern Phllllpy, and Martha Klahr. Janet Schlegel reviews the book written by Dr. Leon Fran gipane, speaker at the rally. Frangipane writes about cancer patients who survive and how attitudes affect healing.
