Vacationing ; Tho battle of tho vacation resort in un with enough r.olls for distribution to assure victory to all of tho com batant This annual battle is waged to decide whether I he summer vacationists will go to the imnmtains, to the Koiuthoro, automobile touring, to the summer cottage, camp ing, transcontinental railroad sightseeing or touring abroad. Next fall it will be learned as heretofore that the vacation l.sts have gone to all of these phiccs. There arc some people who' enjoy going to tho same resort, in the same way and at tho same time every year, but the greater portion of the American populace has an insatiable appetite lor the novel nd strange in vacation resorts as well as in everything else. So nine out of ten of us will go to the seashore one year, to the mountains another year and motor touring on still another year. Another phase of tho summer vacation is that strange, uncxpluinable urge which makes eveiybody at vacation time wish to get away from the scene of his labors. Peo ple who live at the seashore 50 weeks in the year go to the mountains or abroad at vacation time. Tito mountain dwellers flock down, to' the seashore resorts on the vaca tion excursions and the European and Asiatic probably r.11110 to America, while Mr. and Mrs. United Stales are vacationing abroad. A definition for tho word "vacation" iiiifht well lie "a sojounvuwny from homo," although Web ster's yrvtfit'ns '"an flTtoTfflfcislon from''sliiled''6mi)loyment.'"' The only available .explanation for the vacation wan derlust is the propensity of tho American to become bored with his surroundings and to crave new "hunting grounds." Perhaps it is a twentieth century out-cropping of the pion tev instinct of our frontier-pushing forefathers. 4 I - LAi-. ; !!i.5- TR . mz-a. . eCOirVJW frfi-s ivS"JtA mm -s-sito Wis shsJ van after -met mop haiicls sauesman A ! 1 "t tBl:Kr UMiMtS s eeny 'vV S! rrBK, Ei6tRT Vnu.

Many factors detract from the fun of motoring, camping in n tent, swim ming, vacationing and resort sojoujrning. .; Summer does have many discomforts and annoyances peculiar to itself, but perhaps they exist only to heighten by contrast the many luxuries that are summer' gift to mankind. Men must wrest everything from nature, even liw pleasures, and Invariably that which is achieved through tho greatest effort affords the greatest pleasure. - Nothing is perfection in this universe, so the philoso phers Kay, but this summer with its fair Hays, its gmd Motor roads, its fascinating resorts, its facilities for camp ing and swimming and its vacation time is as near summer perfection as mere man can hope for.
