/ "A writer in the Chicago Evening
Post, II. M. McC.," offers the follow.
ing suggestions on spending { week at
the Worlds Fair to best advantage.
He says:
Rooms at $1.25 and $15o day. with
breakfast, are abundant. When land
ing at the union station, II undecided
about location, go at once to the bureau
OF information in the station, where
lists Of rooming-houses and small
hotels may be had. Choose q place
near the grounds If possible. II In
walking distance so much the better,
Jas one may be Independent Of crowded
cars and save car fares.
1t is best to have breakfast ut the
boarding or near by, and depend
on the restaurants Of the Exposition
Tor luncheon and dinner. I have yet
to hear Of a case of extortion, and the
restaurants in the grounds are inter.
esting il one chooses wisely.
Just word about clothes. The wise
woman will wear lightweight walk.
Ing suit, with dark waist-as pretty as
ehe choose in neckwear-and the man
will have lightweight coat and get
rid Of heavy vest White shirtwaists
are JOY to womankind. but by mid
day they lose their freshness and at
hight they are distressing. A silk shirt
waist suit is not warm and Just the
thing.

Make it an outdoor day. Take map
bf the grounds and get your bearings.
Take the Intramural train at Station
!. or at Station II, the terminus, and
ride all the way around. keeping both
eyes wide open for points Of interest
noted on the map. Leaving the Intra-
mural after the round trip, walk to-
ward the Grand Basin and Cascade
Fountains, identifying the buildings
along the way, drinking in the beauty,
resting near the music pavilion to hear
pne or two numbers, studying the
Louisiana monument and finally climb.
Ing the Colonnade Of States.
Statuary has greeted one on every.
side. The artists names are conspi-
cuous and no time is lost in taking this
walk leisurely. From the Colonnade
of States, with map in hand, one,
may pick out the large buildings and
get enduring impressions Of the grand
eur Of the Exposition as whole.
"A return walk may be made to the
, right past the German building to the
Sunken garden and the imposing Cow
eminent building. But by all means

turned on. Choose place near a band
, stand and after dark take to the Pike
and keep out Of doors.
TUESDAY-1f one is lover of art
devote the early hours to the galleries.

left. Take lunch on some pleasant
porch along the way-a cup of tea in
Japan or Ceylon. Follow the water
ways to the Music pavilion and flower
