Hikinq to New York
Editor Of Iyomar's Page:

TO the Editor Of woman's Page:
Dear Madam-My girl friend and
are thinking of walking to New York on
our vacation and would like to know
how many miles it is" How long would
it take US to reach there? We are good
walkers and can walk about three TO
four miles an hour.
What things would be necessary to
take on this trip; also. what route shall
We follow? ). AND T.
You certainly ought not to undertake
this trip unless you have an older per.
son with you. Don't you know some
one who is fond cf walking, as you are,
and whom you would also like To be
with? 1t is about ninety miles TO New
York from here. and you don't want to
go too fast. 1t gets rather tirescme
walking along the regular automobile
highway, and yet this is the route YOU
want 10 take. 50 why. not allow for
fifteen miles a day" You won't be in
special training to walk great dis
tance at stretch, and will not want TO
tire yourself out At this rate, 1t would
take you six days to reach your destina-
tion OF course, some days. you may
want TO push on a little further, and, in
this way, may lessen the time but this
YOU can decide for yourself.
The best route to take is an automo-
bile route which is as follows Broad
street to Rising sun lane, Feltonville, out
OXford pike 10 Ryers, Bustleton, Trappe
toll gate Langhorne, oxford Valley.
Delaware here to Trenton, then through
/ LawrenCevlle, Princeton, Kingston,
/ Rocky Hill. Belle Mead, Somerville,
bound Brook. Planfeld. Scotch Plains.
Springfield, IrVngtOn, Newark, Jersey
| City to New York.
Before you go, you should decide
where you are going to spend each
night. Wear middes and clCth skirts
while you are hiking. AS to what else
you should take with you, you haven't
told me enough about your trip for me
to be able to tell you. 1t all depends
upon whether you are going to camp cut
each night or not. and where you in.
tend TO stay when YOU reach New York
/ In any case, thCuEh you Will need a
suitable costume to wear In the city
and you may find that you will have
to send suitcase on ahead Cf you.
hope you have splendid time.

Neutral COIOrS
Neutral colors are so named because
they are neither warm and advancing
nor cool and rcccding. In other words,
the warm or advancing elements and
the cool or reccding clements are evenly
balanced in their makeup. Thus. for
example, a pure green. exactly one-half
yellow. which is warm or advancing,
and exactly one.half blue, which is
cool or rcceding, is neutral. Also. n
pure violet. exactly one half red and
half blue, is neutral. Such colors
seem neither to come toward you nor
to go away from you.

The tenth floor of the Willard

by fire at six O'Clock Sunday
morning. only few hours before
Tie Spring BANG uet Of the Grid
iron Club had been held in the
ball room on this floor.
Although practically every
room in the hotel was being oc.
cupiedS because OF the Gridiron
dinnerand the hold overs from
the convention of the Daughters
Of the American Revolution, not
a life was lost nor an injury suS-
tanned. The property damage is
estimated at anywhere from S20O,.
900 TO $500, 900. The entire tenth
floor and a part of the ninth floor
are gone. Many Of the rooms
and floors below are water soakt d
as tiremen poured steady strea ms
of water into the tenth floor and
its big banquet. hall for an hour
or more.
National notables whose Sab
bath sleep was broken up by the
fire included Vice President Mr.,
and Mrs. Calvin Coolidge, Brig.

to President Harding; John Pl j.

mittet; HanGord MacNider, nat.
commander of the American
Legion; Senator Coleman Du
Pont, Of Delaware. part owner Of
the hotel. and Charles McCord,
chairman of the Interstate Com
merce Commission.
The origin OF the fire is undo
ternIired 1t is suggested that it
might j.rve started from a cigar
or cigarette dropped as the Grid
iron bsnqueters departed, or ~
the short-circuiting of the elec
