Summer is here. »Simultaneously arrives the vacation season. By train and boat and stage
the exodus from the country to the various resorts has begun. The farmer and the countryman
are the world’s greatest holidaymakers. They seek change. And find it. Travel from the
country to vacation centers and bye-spots, is far, far in excess of that from the cities. Your
farmer knows the value of a holiday. So does liis family. We try to take one day’s rest in
seven. How much more important is it to take one or more weeks in the fifty-two and devote
than exclusively to change and rest. The vacation—rits exact location is not so important—re
stores the wasted tissues, adds years to one's life, reinvigorates and gives life an altogether
new and altogether pleasant aspect. If you have never vacationed, begin this year.
