    The care of the feet is very essential. There is more care taken of the feet now-a-days than there was in days gone by. Long ago people used to go barefooted the most part of the year, but now hardly anyone goes barefooted except children going to school in the Summer. It is not that boots were dearer that time than they are now but because the people are not able to walk barefooted in cold weather.
    In olden times, the people used to wear "clogs" - wooden soles and hence no spring - They were worn at this school by the children about twenty years ago. They are worn very much in North Monaghan yet. Monaghan town sells big numbers, and towards the Braggan Mountains, nothing else is worn.

    If it happened that a person had to throw it out you should say while throwing out the water, Huga, Huga, Huga, and not to throw it but seldom as you can for if the good people were passing their anger would be on you for many a day.
