Slowly but surely. Labor Day
Is becoming less and less identi-
fed with the close of the summer
vacation season.
This hectic holiday still signals
summers nightcap for some,
however, and therein lies its
great inducement to others to
make merry. After this one ex-
citing Splurge of damned traffic
teeming beaches and wait-in-line
restaurant service, when not a
hotel room is to be had, the way
Is relatively clear for those who
are not tied to home by the
pealing of school bells for their
children.
Then. too, there is a growing
realization that early fall is one
of the most delightful seasons
of the year for travel. The
countryside usually is at its sum-
mer's best and the air begins to
take on an invigorating crisp
ness. Blankets at night again be-
come comfortable, and a must in
the highland areas.
Resorts Say Come"
Hand in hand with the grow
ing desire of late vacationers to
take to the road has been dis
position of northern resorts to
stay open, in many cases until
mid-October. Usually they make
some important concessions. such
as a 10 to 80 per cent reduction
In rates. continued activity pro-
grams and the implied pleasure
