about the wonderful vacation exodus from
New York in summer 10 the big sums the
tourists are willing to spend in travel.

aThe success Of personally conducted
parties is due to two things explained
the agent Of a well known vacation tour
company. First, in the lower priced
tours it is a question Of seeing as much
as possible in a given space OF time; This
appeals to the American idea OF hustle,
hustle, hustle. There are a few travellers
trip, who choose to subscribe to the least
energetic itinerary. On the other hand
we have many tourists who complain
that our most crowded schedule for a six
or seven or eight weeks trip Is not as full
as it might be, and who come home like
a man who has been to a three ring circus,
not quite sure which speciality belonged in
which ring.
Second, the personally conducted trip,
particularly Of the de luxe order, appeals
to the women who like to shelve all the
unpleasant features OF travel-and that
almost every American woman.
American women by rights thlnk they
are made to be waited on by the other
sex, and il they haven't a man around
