A good many yers go 'tke French and Germans 'Had a contemptuous way of rUUintht English'" -'tton of shopkeepers." Any . "American who take a ' motor trip during hi sum 'tntr vacation mint wonder "fccaaionalljr tf -the United Btatea" will not soon be ''ailed a nation of inn keep w. - There hasn't been any 'special increase in the rnmber of hotels, to be 'sure. But the main high Vays through the nation dotted today with an 'almost infinite number , of private' homes where tour '1ats can hire rooms for an veralght stop. In many of 'them meals are served as elL . . ; No an has ever counted 'these places. The number "must be high in the thou sands. On a well-traveled r road one can count scores f of them in an hour's drive. yAnd the surprising thing "about it all is that most of J them are very good places 'to stay. As a general thing 1 they are clean and com fortable, and the people who run them are friendly. , Here is a new industry, 'born, of the automobile, whose annual gross income 'must be very large. But it is not as a new industry 'that it is interesting. It is 'a new social custom, a new manifestation o f modern ( democracy; as such, it is 'worth a little study. ; When you travel about ' the country and stop over- night at these "Tourists' -Rooms" places, you get a 'new and - intimate contact -with your fellow citizens. ;You get to know them, 'however, briefly, and you 'get a glimpse into their -lives. You make friends 'dth their xhildren, you sit 'in their parlors, you eat in -their dining rooms and you 'sleep in their beds; and "Vhen .you move on you feel 'that doing all of those 'things has beeu an enjoy ''able experience. You are 'not a stranger, driving 'through a strange part of 'the country; all along the 'road there, are houses 'where you can stop and be a guest for a few hours a Spaying guest, to be sure, 'but a guest nevertheless, 'admitted for a short time to 'the intimacy of the family circle. . . : . All of this, perhaps, isn't " 'especially important. Yet there is something demo ' cratic and friendly about it that warms one's heart. It is reassuring to discover that this far-flung, utterly 'informal "industry" has not found a lot of rules and regulations necessary; to : learn mat. traveler ana cost 'can take one another at .' face value and that It is on 'ly very rarely that either 'has causa to regret it.
