Credit Is an essential factor In a
eommunity such as this, and for the
good Of the majority care should be
taken to safeguard 1t against abuse.

more widely extended In Hartford than

VACATION TINE

Now that the hot summer months
are on hand, vacation will soon be here
with a myriad Of joys for those 30
lucky as to get one. From the stand
point Of business rs well MS pleasure
II has long been proven that vacations
are profitable where II is at all possible
to work them out.
While on general principles change
means rest, It is very easy to overdo
Il. Not infrequently persons tied down
tight most Of the year, devote their va
cation period to plunging into an orgy
Of social events or strenuous athletics
until the strain Of the last few vaca-
ton days far offsets the physical good
Of the first As vacations are primari.
" rest period to relieve whatever
portion of the body must Withstand
the constant grind Of every day work,
moderation should be used in seeking
change.
Quite often vacations are looked
upon merely as pleasant event and
little thought is given to the implied
duty which goes with II. Whether we
be employer OF. employee the purpose
Of vacation Is the same, namely, to
break the monotony of work day life
and through rest and change give us
renewed yigor to tackle life's problems.
When q vacation Is looked upon In any
other light 1t is failure no matter
how pleasant the fieeting hours may
have been. To this end careful thought
should be given to planning the rest
period. Sports, physical labor, travel,
quiet resting, and social activities each
hold out their charms for individuals.
More often than not the matter of ex-
pense proves an important factor in
making choice but true vacationists
always find way to get maximum
of fun at minimum expense.
While our men are breaking the mo-
notony Of life by catching the finest
Specimen Of fish, may our pretty girl
workers experience still greater thrill
by landing their best beaux.

Up the corner of the Lodge back
of the Club casino, where were the

rick's rooms. \
A moment later he was bounding
up the stairs and had flung his
shoulder against the door. 1t did
not yield-until he turned the knob.
1t was unlocked Through the
stifle of smoke he fought his way
to the chest and flung it open. The

the shouts of the local fire fighters.

Garrick
| A small boat had put out from
her and was rowing toward the
| shipyard. The shipbuilder hims Elf
| joined them.
Take that former submarine pa
| troll boat" winked Garrick to him.
| .That's a fat craft, capable of go
ting anywhere. What might a boat
like that cost, if you could pick one
up?"
! The builder caught the cue. They
| were deep in designs and prices
| when Dick suddenly interrupted at
the approach of two men from the
street to the town. Professor Vario
| and, by Jove, jack!
The four stood talking boats as
| the skiff with a sailor neared them.
| Vario was a thick-set man with a
shock of hair and bushy eyebrows
His manner was the manner of a
scientist but his sun-bronzed skin
! showed intimate acquaintance with
/ the outdoors.
Dick, who had known him quite
well, soon discovered th.4t he was
on little vacation, his family hav-
ing taken a cottage over on Shelter
/
Island.
He's the best radio trouble finder
in the world" put in Curtis.
| There's a friend of mine down east

and pick me up. BUT they told me
their wireless was on tie blink. So
l thought of the professor here and
he Agreed to come over and look it
over If there's anything wrong.
he'll get it right"
The skiff had come alongside hy
this time. ''Sary, partner" inquired
the builder of Curtis. You seem
to know my customers, here. If
row them out would you mind if
they took look at the boat?" Then,
aside, II think 1 can make a sale
maybe get an order to build"
Dick nodded ungraciously and the
two skiffs set out
1t was perhaps en- hour, or even
more, that Vario buried himself in
the cabin, going over everything
from aerial to headgear, testing
vacuum tubes, getting a fine adjust
ment on the variable condenser. The
air fairly reeked with talk of tun
ing coils, transformers, v~riocoup-
lers and variometers, rheostats and
regenerative sets, the merits and
dement's of nearly every contro
versial piece of apparatus known to
radio. 1t was to be expected,
thought Garrick, with a practical
man like Vario meeting up with
Dick. of the inventive mind. In fact
he was pleased.
The second hour was frightening
when Vario had the apparatus
working properly Curtis, who had
spent most of the time in the little
pilot house going over some charts
with the navigator, rejoined them.

unbending "a bit, to Garrick and
