Msis Maillet, deputy treasurer, has
been doing a lot of figuring where she
would spend her vacation this summer
and recently sent information to one OF
the Chicago Summer Resort bureaus
to help her out in the matter. Mail
began to arrive by the bagfull and she
was nearly compelled to hire a private
secretary. The worst part of it is that
she is more undecided than ever now,
and by the time she opens all the
mail sent her, vacation time will be
over.

man usually throws them back into
the water.
