Advice TO
Girl Making
Her First Trip
BY MARY BEECKMAN

A YOUNG girl about TO make
her first overnight trip on a
train writes for advice on trav-
cling etiquette. Here are her
problems:
DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
i am 20 years old, and I am
going TO take my first trip in a
Pullman. Please help me with
certain questions. The first is
about luggage. I'm taking a
wardrobe case and an overnight
case. Should | take my ward
robe case 10 the baggage room
at the station, and carry only
the overnight case with me?
2--What is the best way TO
undress and dress in a Pullman
sleeping car?
3-How much should tip the
porters and walters?
ANNE.
Travel ia cilities are
strained these days and you
should chose a day when trains
are less likely 10 be crowded and
make your reservation we'll in
advance. It's a wise idea 10 send
the wardrobe case by railroad
baggage service.
Take or send II TO the station
baggage goOm the day before
your departure. If possible. 50
you can claim II on your arrival
without delay.
2-If the train departs before
evening. the berth will not be
made up. The porter will pre-
pare 1t when you wish.
In sleeping car you dress FOR
sleep as you would at home. You
may undreSs and dress in the
women's dressing room at the
end of the car, and wear a long,
dark tailored dressing robe TO
and from your berth.
3-fip the redcap at the sta
ton who carries your luggage, at
least 10 cents bag or package,
or a minimum Of % cents for the
service. In the dining car you

10 per cent is a fair basis,
but 25 cents is the usual mini

for a night trip.

He tells of an old-timer of that re-

father brought it from across the
Atlantic, he said. And while many
old families of the OZarks are said
to still have their bullet mOlds,
they do not have anything on the
writer of Horse and Buggy Days.
We used to have an old twist-bore
muZzle-lOading rifle, for which bull
lets had to be nodded by hand, and
many were the times we burned
our boyish fingers trying to make
these bullets. And, like the twist
bores of the Ozarks, wouldn't it
shoot! My material grandfather
used it in his day. Where is it
now? Somebody stole it!
