HOW SPENT ONE VACATION
THIS vacation letter, by Lois Vir.

5,000-mile trip. Lois lives at 303 Lin

Dear Editor:
Il should like to write to you about
the most interesting vacation trip l
ever took. during which I travelled
about 5000 miles and on a good part
OF 1t I was unaccompanied.
First went with friends who were
driving to Memphis. where I expected
to spend month. We took two and
a half days to make the trip which
gave us some time to view the Won
derful scenery in parts of the Blue
Ridge and the Great Smoky Noun
tains.
Memphis is a nice city and is
called the Bluff City because it is
built high on the east bank of the
Father of Waters. The raising and
selling of cotton seems to be the prin-
cipal businesses and everywhere you
see cotton. 1t was interesting to
watch the boats being loaded. The
school books show the old side
wheelers on the Mississippi. but now
the water transportation is mostly by
improved barge One of the bits of thu
Old South still left on the river is
when the show boat comes to the rive.
towns.
From Memphis I went to Dallas,
Tex. by train. Another aunt met me
there and drove me north to Chandler
Okla, where I saw for the first time
oil derricks close at hand and had a
taste Of the duststorms. We drove
over a bridge and saw people actually
walking across the river on dust which
was so thick it had become hard and
formed cover except in little places
here and there Dust was every-
where, even inside the bureau drawers
etc
The men work on the oil derricks
all day and all night where I was
After being used to street traffic ano
tall buildings. it was strange to be in

THE Texas Centennial was on in
Dallas, 80 I came back there and
spent two days seeing the sights
There was one building there made
of glass and, when the light showed
on 1t. it was like a fairyland. I liked
the Indian villages, too, and the camps
of various people from foreign lands.

THE press. Peter explained. was a
gift from a friend-Mr. Emil
Hurja, prominent member Of the
Democratic party. Back of Mr..
Hurja's gift was his desire to see Peter
with hobby which also provided a
way to make money When he was a
young man. Mr Hurja himself had a
printing press which enabled him to
earn funds for his university educa-
ton and he's convinced that printing
Is one of the most worthwhile hobbies

1T was two casters ago We got our

screen over the top and placed it in

down with nails. and used one nail as
q hook with which to open the cage.
But this didn't succeed in keeping
him in. We caught him slyly working
loose the wire and hopping out. So
We placed nm on Screened-ln porch
where he could have sunlight and air.
He was greedy fellow and ate
great quantities of food We would
f1ll his pen with dandelions but he
would soon eat them. We also fed
him lettuce. grass. apples, carrots,

drank water.

press his little pink nose against the
screen In getting to my father when
he came home at evening We could
always leave the door connecting the
living room and porch open, for he
never passed over the threshold. We
would frequently see him sitting erect
on the doorslll, looking at u.s. but he
would never come into the house
