us in the lead OF all the counties III the
state. 1t is a happy circumstance, to
our minds, that the first county IN so
many other respects, should also always
be found in the lead in any index to the
charms Of Vermont, This first place is
accorded in new Directory of Hotels
and Boarding Houses which the state
Bureau of Publicity has just issued Tor
the 1918 season under the title Where
to stop in Vermont"
Though the whole book is full OF
good tips" it will save the inquiring
tourist the confusion Of long search
if he turns to the first few pages OF
mention OF Addison County places,
There is one misfortune in the listing,
as the book only refers TO some OF the
more prominent resorts, and, in fact,
misses even such prominent ones as
Lake Dunmore House Aside from the
regularly established places there are a
countless number of less pretentious
ones which the resourceful tourist can
discover" as happy solutions OF the
question where to Spend Vacation
The Register quotes all the references
which the book makes to our county,
reminding not only outsiders OF the OPP
portunity for vacation visits, but sug-
costing perhaps to some OF our own
people that in this year OF costly trans
portation il may be desirable to plan
to spend our vacations-ii we are iortu-
nate enough to plan any at all-at some
of the county resorts
