Fun for Five Dollars a Week.

/
| In the June Woman's Home Compan-
ion several contributors tell how they
| took their vacations economically and
attractively. Many practical suggestions
are made. Following is an account of
avacation planned and taken by eight
school teachers;
I'VE are eight girl school teachers,
and we rented log cabin on the third
ridge of mountain in Vermont at one
hundred dollars for the entire season.
II had five rooms comfortably furnished
with enough beds, tables. chairs, rockers,
a couch, oil stoves, some kitchen uten-
sils, rough dishes, plenty of hooks and
shelves; but best of all was the open
fireplace. We brought trunks. contain
ing the needed amount of clothing, lin
en-, pillows and blankets. and with
few curtains, college pennants, etc, we
made our little summer home quite
attractive.
I'VE learned of nearby farm where
we were able to purchase eggs, butter,
home made bread, pastry, etc. We got
our own breakfasts, gathered our own
berries and bought sugar, coffee, etc,
from the village in quantities.
''On the ridge below us was larger
log cabin where they kept boarders.
Here we had our big meal once day
lat noon). They charged twenty five
cents-but we had a regular dinner. In
the evening we fixed up our own tea.
Sometimes we got up at 5 a. m. and
took long tramps. We made it point
to take nap if for only half hour
every afternoon, either in hammocks or
