WHAT REAL VACATION MEANS
Play Is the Foundation, and That Con.
sists of Doing Anything That
is Not Work.

A real vacation, If you can get one.
consists of play, asserts Preston Slos.
son in the New York Independent.
Play is the opposite Of work. Play is
whatever is done for Its own sweet
sake. If you build fire to. warm
yourself or to cook dinner you are
ut work.
If you build bonfire because you
like to see sparks redden against the
sable background Of the night you are
at play. If you dance to improve
your waistline or to learn a new step
you are working.
If you dance because you "just
can't make your feet behave when
the orchestra starts, you are playing.
If you go fishing to catch fish you
are as much at work as If you were
building bridges or writing editorials
to make money. If you go fishing in
the true fisherman's spirit you won't
care much whether they bite or not.
The vacation mind is law unto
itself. If 1t enjoys an occupation it
keeps on while the enjoyment lasts.
thought every fiber of the tired body
may be shouting quit"
II it ceases to enjoy an occupation
1t stops at once, though 1t create con-
sternation all around. A real vaca-
ton is a trip into fairyland. where
the natives never heard of duties or
obligations and the only law Is "Do
what you really like"

AFRICAN GOLF" IS
W00ED DBYFRENCH
Commerce Report Shows Nation
Has Taken Up Doughboy
Pastime.

NEW YORK. April 15.-From the in
nards Of an otherwise ho-hum COM
merce report Is dragged the intma ton
that France has acquiesced with the
conclusion long ago expounded by the
"A. r. f., that the author of the First
Year Arithmetic was full of home
prev when he wrote that seven is fol-
lowed by eight.
The French have come to know, as
was often illustrated by doughboys in
between sessions of showing the
crown princes armies further back
than his chin, that the logical Sc
auence Is seven-eleven.
1t appears, IL one Is adept at in
terpreting the lines of q commerce re-
port. that the French have yielded to
the lure of the game OF shootzekrap;
that factories have been established
to fashion into cubes the tusks which
before the advent OF the A. f. r. the
French recognized as being merely a
means Of keeping an elephants face
In place.
These factories have been fashion
ing the rambling worries and bones
so numerousiy that IT has become
necessary to export them, and the
report tabulates prices quoted for
recent exports of this commodity.
As general thing one could wear
out his spectacles trying to fnd q
pithy paragraph in a commerce re-
port. for the telephone directory more
closely approximates q bIood-and
thunder style than this document.
From the commerce report at hand.
however, it is gathered that the Yam
kee doughboY compensated for hav-
ing left behind several nocks of cigar
coupons by also leaving with the
French an acquaintance with the
game which initiates or debates the
income tax and which, when dexter
ously practiced with appropriate ca
toling. Is sometimes ~ means of en-
suring that baby's feet will be parked
within a pair of shoes.
Being an adaptable race the French
are assumed to have finally fathomed
the mystic chantings Of Private John
Smith when he implored the specked
worries to provide the rent" and
moistened his palms a. he whaneed
the tusk chips through ReometricaI
proportions preparatory to their
eventual roll out on the greensward
or table cloth or curbstone.
There Is the consolation. however.
that this American game, imported
from the African golf links, cannot
be as successfully operated in France
as here, for. Private John Smith may
inform himself. what does a French
tongue know Of the essential exhor-
tations of fade two bits" and aIet

Six OF the twenty-eight inspectors
