VACATIONS

What, in fact is vacation? The dictionary sets it up
pretty we'll "a stated interval in round Of duties or EN-
poyment as and recreation Then the object of
vacation and recreation This the accepted
The idea is to get the most out of it.
To do that probably, complete change in the usual
routine of life and occupation will do the most good AS
rule, people recreae in the country along the lake
shores the mountains Country folks hurry to the city
Change of and environment is what both crowds
looking for. And correctly.
By sticking around the old haunts in vacation time,
one is apt to return his job whether in bank farm
or behind counter mind sick and limb weary. And his
time off will have done him little good.
Many at the vacation period try to forget
absolutely the being their usual form of existence
They step out of themselves it They brush the
mental cobwebs from their minds.
Perhaps the increased of labor will make
essary to raise the price of soap.
If that tabled golden fleece existed today would be
worth its weight in wool.
Every farmer that fix that he has but boy
to play for his country.

of hats in Imperial county the nomination of Senator
Warren Harding? It's the democrats who are doing it.

MASON WRITES
A POETIC GEM
TO SAN DIEGO
Famous Poet Finds Land Of
Hearts Desire in BGIMy San
Diego ard Horb0y of the
Sun; Breaks into Poetry.
Especial II The Press


SAN DIEGO, June 19.-Walt Mason
whose prose rhymes written from En-
poria, Kan. are printed in hundreds
of papers and are read daily by mil
lions of Americans, has broken into
actual verse.
Mason. when the temperature be-
gan to climb in the corn belt, packed
his bag and trunk-although ordinary
poets do not have anything to put in
a trunk, Mason is not that kind-and
headed for the cool breezes of South
ern California. After looking around,
he established himself at La Jolla,
the beautiful seaside village within
the city limits of San Diego, and he
is still there.
The longer Mason stayed, the better
he liked it, and finally he could not
contain himself. He seized his trusty
typewriter and began to write. This
is what Mason wrote:
"OH, SAN DIEGO"
Oh, San Diego, tranquil town.
From heat and cold forever free,
Serene and stately, looking down
Upon a blue and silver seal
No tempest round your portal screams
Nor storm king chants, barbaric
song;
You are the city of my dreams,
The Eden | have sought so long.
The waters of the mystic west
Come signing, sobbing to your piers,
And when they bore upon their crest
The ships of Spanish pioneers,
And when those mariners of old
Beheld the hills whereon you lie,
Stained with the sunsets ruddy gold.
They cried for joy-and so do |.
Oh. San Diego, to your bowers
The pilgrims Of the nation go,
To find you garlanded with flowers,
When their own towns are sunk in
snow.
Your sea-born breezes, cool and sweet
| Make summers threat seem all in
vain.
When cities. tortured by the heat.
Send up. their walls of death and
pain.
The gods who fashioned worlds, of
old,
Did some things well, and some
things worse;
And they invented heat and cold,
/ And spread them DER the universe
But when those gods with ardor
wrought,
Upon this fair Pacific shore,
They said. "We here shall have spot
/ Where Spring shall dwell. forever
! more"
Of the many rhapsodies which have
tbeen written concerning San Diego
beginning with that of Babrillo who
landed here in 1542, none has ex'
pressed more vividly what residents
j and visitors feel, but generally fine
bevond expression. Critics to whom
the verses were submitted said nothing
like them had been written since Bre
: Harte's "Angelus."
