There is lot of significance in the

vacationing.
But there are fathers and fathers.
With the coming of the hot months
there is an exodus of the families of
the -Four Hundred from the cities.
Brigades Of fashionably dressed wives
crowd the piazzas of the resort hotels
Sons go the pace at the races or swell
resorts. Daughters go to Europe.
The man who draws the checks stays
in town, mostly by choice, to make the
wheels of business go round.
But there are others.
There are tired and nervous wives
and mothers who need rest and relaxa-
ton who go to some quiet place. The
children go along. They all need the
open spaces, the running water, the air
and sunshine.
The family purse permits no splurge.
Father stays by the stuff. To him
come souvenir postals and cute mes
sages for pop" To him come-most
precious!-love letters like "shen used
to write before they were married.
How the 'old man. CLOVIS and gloats
over the bits of news-how Johnny
tried to walk log and fell into the
creek, and how Susie fed the calf He
swells huge when Mollie and the kids
write they are having the time of their
lives.
1t might be hard to guess who is the
happier-those who go or him who
stays.
And when they all come back! 1t is
easy to pick out father as he waits
neryously and happily at the depot
The bunch-his bunch-is on that train
He looks anon at his watch anG
smiles. And when the train pulls il
his old sweetheart's kiss is on his
lips! There is big bear hug from the
kids. Father is about the happiest
man in the town.
Forgotten is the long. hard pull al
business; forgotten the hot, weary
days and forgotten the lonesome even
ings in the lonely house.
His folks are back! Mamma" il
strong again. And the kids are brown
and happy as the birds.
You see, the tie that binds the
| bunch, at home or in vacation, is tn,
kind that will not come united.
The vacation of the families of the
Four Hundred is simply husband ant
father desertion.
The other kind is
