Travellers
Notebook
By Jacques FutreIIe. Jr.
The Sfor's Travel Editor.

Have you looked through the
1853 calendar to note the days on
which holidays fall? Well. about
this time of year the Notebook
does, to determine what the holi-
days will bring in the way Of ex-
tended week ends.
Three and four day week ends
generally inspire trips to beaches.
the mountains and other resorts
that are not quite feasible with
the normal combination of Satur-
day and Sunday alone. But make
note of it now that the coming
year is not the most ideal for
these demi-vacations.
In fact, two of the Nations ma
jor holidays will be "lost" to most
Government workers by falling
on non-working Saturdays. These
are Memorial Day and the Fourth
of July. Another-February %
falls on a Sunday, but the prac-
tice has been to observe such
Sunday holidays on the following
Monday, thus providing a three
day span away from the Office.
Labor Day, on the usual Mon
day, falls on September in 1858.
Armistice Days November IL Is
isolated in the middle of the week,
on a Wednesday. Thanksgiving
will be observed on November 26,
if the last Thursday = of the =
month custom is followed. And
there is no assurance that the
intervening Friday will be decreed
as free time off.
Christmas will come on a Friday
next year, allowing another three
day tie-in with Saturday and Sun
day. That eliminates the chance
of a four-day holiday, such as
Government employees had this
Christmas.
To sum up, there will be but
three three-day week ends for
certain, no four-day combinations
for certain, in 1853.

Winter Vocation Boom

"A booming winter travel sea-
son" is forecast by the American
Automobile Association. The pre-
Idiction. just released, is the result
of a survey of affiliated clubs in
all parts of the United States.
Florida is given top rank as
the seasons objective, with Cali
fornia second.
1t is natural to suppose that
Eastern seaboard vacationers
would give Florida a heavy play
but some of the Eastern AAA
clubs have found motoring to the
West in such favor as to consti-
tute major movement. In other
words, if the Washington area
vacationer is thinking of objec-
tives in California, the Southwest
the Gulf Coast or even Mexico
far though it is in miles, he is
in good company.
Reporting for Miami is Robert
J. Finley, manager of the South
Florida Motor Club, who says
after forecasting 10 to II per cent
more visitors this winter:
Hotels at Miami Beach should
be at their capacity occupancy
from mid-January solidly until
early March. Each year more

Packing the Auto Trunk

/ Unfortunately, there is no par
for the game of packing for vaca-
ton trips. That is true for time,
which can appear to be endless;
for wrinkles per square foot of
suits and dresses. and for limits on
what a piece of luggage Will hold.
All too often. there are dubs at
the game who stay dubs, and
never know it; others. who. over
the years, acquire some knack Of
packing the hard way by frequent
experience, and still others who
pick up and apply hints to the
point that packing becomes the
proverbial breeze.
For what use the motoring pub
lie can make Of it, we pass along
some hints that have recently
come to our attention: How to
pack the trunk of car. The brief
treatise was inspired by an execu-
tive of a company who is interest
ed in successful vacations and
business CTlpS Dy auto.
He goes back several thousand
years to draw on the wisdom of
ancient Egypt in building the Pyr-
amids to illustrate his point. And
he suggests that motorists stow
their luggage and other vacation
paraphernalia in a pyramid style,
broad and heavy at the base and
tapering to smaller areas.
Heavy and Brood Base
The bigger and heavier pieces of
luggage, according to this theory,
should be placed at the bottom.
flat on the floor. Smaller pieces
pyramid up. In the side spaces
go little valises, perhaps an over
nighter and boxes with food. fish
ing equipment and other nom
bulky items. A little grip with
personal belongings, such as toilet
articles. can be placed in an &C
cessible trunk spot. or can be car
ried on the back seat. If not
occupied by members Of the
party.
AS a further perfection. large
vacant spaces can be filled with
cartons, luggage or blankets. This
helps eliminate bumps and rattles.
He warns against carrying a
lcamera or other precision instru-
ment in the trunk. That should
go in the interior of the car. And
that is where the spare tire should
go, too, he recommends, If the
| luggage is great and the motor
ing party is easily accommodated
on the front seat. Then, one
doesn't have to unpack the trunk
. should the misfortune of a fiat
occur.
; Put the spare between the front
and the rear seats. Drape it well
. to prevent soiling the interior
fabric, and anchor 1t against an
noying rolling from side to side
in going around corners, and
humping against the front seat
