This facility, which we often take for granted, ac tually is quite indispen sable-even on vacation. Take planning your trip for instance. Before you leave, list the clothes you'll need, places to visit, and estimated expenses. Write down the numbers of your travelers checks and credit cards and leave them with a friend, together with serial numbers of cameras, binocu lars. portable radios and such. On the trip, list daily ex penditures for food, lodg ing. amusements, etc., to avoid running over your budget. Personal ratings of lodgings and restaurants, evaluations of highways and charges for tolls can be helpful for next time. Photographs can make a vacation, but take notes on the what, where and how of each snapshot, so there’s no guessing when you're home. A diary for reminiscing and reference for future trips, is a must, as are post cards and letters home. And here, legible handwriting is most important. No one wel comes a message they can’t read, and the most precise notes are meaningless if illegible. Busy lives demand good handwriting—even on vaca tion.
