Ir- seekers. SOiouin a month in

Aph.austery for particular people,
Vacation on 101 ranch with 100000
'nilas to rido over. rare days on the
Jersey coast. Red Eagle Glacier in
northwest Montana, quebec the
oua.ut, are some OF the alluring cap
tons that are staring one in the face
these days when somehow you long
10 cross the threshold OF home,
leave the envlrons of the old home
town and seek new pastures just for
summers day and diversion.
That people are vacation bound
Is proven by the fact that one going
east or west finds 1t almost ifnpos-
sble TO get reservations to leave
within two or three days after max
Ing application. The usual people
that patronize Colorado Springs, are
again going there, the usual influx
from tnis city to points in southern
California are taking the same trip,
there are people going TO points on
the Atlantic coast and the same are
going 20 northern fakes and cities.
The Ozarks, beautiful and alluring
las ever, are claiming large colony
Z and Tulsans who have chosen Bella
Vista, are planning to leave at this
Weekend so az TO be there on the

summer tourist go, It is for change
OF scene and the diversion brought
about hy mingling at new places
and with new people. Long we have
sung about Tulsa summer pleasures
and they continue to exist for those
who like home best.
How to Behave in Society" and
How to Shine in Society are the
names of two popular selling vol
unes found at booksellers today.
Would YOU believe It? The author
Is unknown. 1t is difficult to
realize in this modern generation
that there is a demand for such fic-
tlon as How to Behave in Society"
or what is even worse, How to
Shine in Society" The clerk tells
you many interesting facts among
these that the writer wrote the
books In good faith and that there
is demand for the books. The idea
is sufficient to drive one into gales
Of laughter. To think of breaking
into society through such a medium
! as aIIlown by our versatile literary
yfrtend. II rs TOO rIliculous for
words yet the statement of the sales
man is that peophs buy the books
and thaf,. f,,g
data on the two subjects.
Really there should be some law
against imposing on the credulous
In such a manner. Both hooks are
a huge travesty on the way the fash
lonable world behaves and are so
silly that stage comedians are MISS
Ing some good material by not pro-
curing copies. No one ever shone
in society by doing the set things
laid down in a book or doing the
things other people did. This is m
age Of individuality and personality.

family tree, iryOu have personality
