for outbursts on the holiday. The
change from the routine Of the
city and it's work is soothing to
nerves. The holiday spirit is easy
going and pleasure seeking. And
when a boy and q girl meet in an
environment new to each. each Is
under influences foreign to his

There is no rush and furry of
work, there Is no obligation to get
things done, there is no need OF
adjustment to the demands Of an
office or a store or even Of a home.
And so the holiday makers see
each other as they are two weeks
out Of a year-not as they are
fifty weeks out Of fifty-two.
Apart from the fact that folks
who meet casually on the vaca-
ton basis see each other under
easy and ease-making conditions,
they know nothing Of each others
backgrounds. And II they, plunge
