Marry Routes and Different Priced Tickets
 Puzzle Woman Who Is Plannine Vacation Trip

lease on our vacation expires then. The young man with this information
 well in hand now begins to plan her trip He points out the many places of interest
 that are right in the line of march, as it
 were from Birmingham to Canada, and he
 rattles off with lightning like velocity
 all the data in regard to everything con-
 ,ted with summer travelling.
 Pick cut the very best way" says the
 woman amiably, and then tell me what | it will cost.''
 In less time than you'd think the affable young clerk has the trip all mapped out and planned and ready to take, the price of tickets with all sorts of stopovers and extras included, and the Lord only knows what else, at a rate s10 cheaper than
 the woman had ever expected it would cost.

 and then announces that she must tele- graph Susie"
 Have you ever seen a woman send telegram?
 It is one of the funnest things imag- inable. Talking without adjectives is hard enough for the average American woman,
 but to write without articles, adjectives or punctuation marks is awful
 After 10 minutes struggle and the con- fiscatior of seven perfectly good telegraph
 blanks she decides upon this:
 "Trip arranged just like we wanted it. Tickets cost $59.S9. Leave Tuesday morn- ing. When will you get here? Wire me- Lots of love"
 She is just about to fold the telegram up and start for the telegraph office when the amiable young clerk suggests that he will send it for her. Taking the message from her he spreads it out on the counter and begins to read it, and feeling in his pocket for his pen cil after perusing the words carefully and eliminating the unnecessary ones, he offers the corrected statement to her for inspection.
 Tickets bought; start Tuesday. Wire when you'll arrive. Much love" 2 sOf course you want to send your love- says he inquistively. You may as well. 1.-Two words to spare as it stands" And the woman thanks his best she can and goes away, more than a little disgusted with her own blundering ignor- ance of things, but quite much enlight- ened as to how easily things can be done by a nice young clerk who knows. =

r7HE woman who decides upon the
 vacation trip she wishes to take | | and sails forth to make arrange ments therefor. is soon out of all con ceit with herself
 Her own self-respect is soon trampled In the dust and she returns to her home with her preparations completed, her trip mapped out, her railroad tickets in her purse. her time tables and hand guides bulging out of her new leather hand bag, a much more knowing wom- an than when she left.
 Not that she is not treated with the utmost courtesy-but it is the wisdom of all folk with whom she comes in contact that makes her feel so worth e less. so ashamed of her unwisdom. so apologetie for cumbering the earth with her great ignorance.
 T want a ticket for a trip to the Thousand Islands and Quebec she an nounces to the affable clerk in the ticket office. How much will it cost"
 (Which route do you wish to take? Do you want to go by the way of Lake George or Lake Champlain? Do you want to take any side trips and do you wish any stop-overs9" he asks.
 Will you kindly say all that over again., the woman requests modestly, in a still small voice.
 The aimable young man does so, at the same time explaining that there are various ways of reaching the Thousand Islands and Quebec. and just as many ways of returning from those regions
 "I want to go the incest way" says the woman at last, in desperation.
 How long do you intend staying? 9" inquires the clerk
 Being a woman, she sees no reason whatever why the length of her vaca- tion trip makes any difference to this perfectly strange young man; and sc she flares up and declares to herself that she has no intention whatsoever of telling him.
