Pleasurable Outing.

Many Westinghouse during the long
not summer days resolve that never again
Will they be forced to stay at home
through not having saved up for a vaca-
ton Next year they will be fully pre-
pared But when the year has rolled
around most of them are a far as ever
from that coveted vacation
Saving is difficult when one has a fam
lily or a small income, or both, and the
majority of people feel too poor to take
funds out Of the general living expenses
and too rich to enjoy the free summer

eligible. In the evenings one can get
holiday at whichever resort appeals most
to ones tastes. Even when many a

that her transportation and hotel bill
will be covered.
What the Opportunity Brings.

bathing every morning in the surf,
promenading the Boardwalk every after
noon and dancing every night. Think Of
