shall we go this summer? ?" il in
most cases the question i L s hard
to answer. Every man and woman
has a preference when it comes to
deciding on summer resort. Some
so to the mountains and enjoy the
solitude of quiet hotel, and that
clear, sparkling mountain stream that
they can ndver forget, and which
lures them back year after year until
the fish stories become so abnormal
that their friends fear for the next
summer to come. Some seek the
great lakes and the numerous resorts,
large and small, where one can live
either cheaply or eXtravagantly. Golf
ing, tennis, sailing, driving and, last
but by no means least, dancing, are
the chief pleasures of small northern
resort on the lakes. The golf links
at some of these resorts are most
excellent and, as the weather is al
most always cool, it is pleasure to
let Old Sol blaze away on treeless
golf course. Some of the more for
tunate go to the seaside and take up
their existence in one of the extreme
ly fashionable hotels At such re-
sort one can find everything to amuse
everybody, from the children with
their spades and buckets to the
prettiest girl in the place with doz-
ems of trunks and her small fortune
in jewelry There are others who
contemplate a quiet visit to some
friend or RELATIVES, and still others
who expect to spend a month or two
back at "our old home" 1t may have
been years and years since they were
there, and the pleasure is very keen
and the time seems long before the
final preparations are made for the
departure. Their summer is to be
spent in an old-fashioned farmhouse
covered with vines. The trees that
once seemed large are giants now,
and the old place has taken on
staid, prosperous look. The wide We
randa looks cool and pleasant, and
the open doors leading into the wide
hall show peace and hospitality. And

each summer to welcome the children
who have drifted away from this
calm to the hustling, living scenes OF
city life.
Summer in Pine Bluff is not the
most pleasant season of the year.
The business man and woman can
inform you of this fact, but none can
tell you more forcibly than the house
keeper. Every housekeeper, no mat
ter what her station in life, how
many servants she has Or what her
i allowance may be each month, has
the same trial to put up with-the
pulverzed condition of the soil-the
dust. The woman with servants does
not need to perform the laborious
task of "shoveling" out the dust
but she can't help but see her furni
ture and curtains becoming covered
with earth within an hour after the
| "shoveling' process has been com
pleted for the day. And if she be g
good housekeeper she will worry
about it and gradually the little wrin
kles will form at the corners of hel
eyes and on her forehead, and she
will be miserable until she finds ou
that it does no good to worry. But
on the other hand. if she be mo-
such particular housekeeper, she
will smile and either turn to her bool
or sewing, or put on her hat and dust
coat and go for drive through the
woods And all sensible people will
say the latter woman was in the right
