Extrsvassnce at High School Commence
ment-

ment
In an article in the May Woman's
Home Com panion it is stated that at
nearly every high school commence
ment great extravaganza is INDUCED
IN. In good many parts Of the eoun-
try efforts are being made to reduce
the amount Of money spent for these
occasions. A high school in New York
City, for example, last year kept the
average cost to 81 each, and this year
it proposes to reduce it to 80 cents. A
good many obstacles are confronted,
however, by those who undertake to
preach economy. Following is an in
teresting extract from the article ON
this point:
"For illustrations: in Xenia, Ohio,
there was deterinIned effort to lave
the graduation gowns simple and in

seeing Europe on $3.50 a Day

In the May Woman's Home Conn
panion, writer on the subject, "See-
ing Europe on $3.50 Day." says in
part:
Of course it can be done for less. A
stalwsrt college boy, with knapsaek
and bicycle, can get the figures down
to 81 20; but that does not concern the
present paper. The traveller now un-
der consideration is the salaried woman
who wishes to get the largest return in
pleasure and profit with the least out
lay of funds, and who does not want
TO miss The adventurous Zest of travel
by being taken care of in a conducted
party. 1t should be clearly stated that,
if she is subject to severe headaches, or
neuralgia which echoes very change OF
temperature; if she has weak ankle
or an uncertain stomach, she should
wait for her trip 10 Europe until she
can spend at least S. a day. But with
ordinary good health and the bodily
strength to run for train on occasion
aud not mind a slight dampening in
mountain nists, an expenditure OF
about three hundred dollars ia money
aud three months of time VIII bring
more definite pleasure than any i'm
aginable holiday at home.
Economical travelling does not
mean penurious travelling. 1t means
rather the putting of yourself for the
time in the place of the dwe.lers in the
country to be visited. 1t may be ac-
eepted that the expensive things are
supplied for the foreigner The En-
glishman, the German, the swiss, do
as they do, and the problem in quickly
simplified.
Economical travelling does not
mean necessarily, The hurried traveller.
The gibes flung at the "Europe in Ten
Weeks tourist should be accepted
with equanimity. Half loaf of Paris
or London is much better than none.
A week, if no more, in each will III
animate your reading for ten years to
come.
"Saving by means of scant meals
should be avoided. a travelling, both
mind and tody are keyed up with the
demands upon them. Interest and en-
thusiasm both spell fatigue which
must be met by regular and appetizing
repasts. Any nibbling of sandwiches
or pastry at noon, in place of hot soup
aud roasts, is most unwise'"
