Items of Interest on the North
Side.
Where will you spend your vaca-
ton % This question is heard on all
sides this time of the year. This is
the season when trade is comparative
~ dull and employees of different con-
Germs are given a one or two weeks
rest.
To those who are fortunate enough
to get longer vacation than two
weeks, the Seattle exposition appeals
strongly. However, many North siders
are planning for Just flying visit to
the great fair. AS usual Colorado and
its summer resorts are as popular as
ever with the recreation seekers. A
very few are planning to spend part
of the summer in eastern summer re-
sorts.
However, a great many intend to
stay at home and keep cool when
their vacation comes. Those of this
intention contemplate spending many
peaceful hours in a hammock in Gar
field park.
The men folk who will stay at home
will probably help WHEY about the
house. One North side man is figur-
ing on painting the house during his
spare time. Then of course a wife or
mother can always hunt up weeds
which need cutting or broken fences
which need repairing If men folks are
near to do the work.
Altogether it is safe to say that the
North siders will spend their leisure
time to the best advantage.
