second and third choice be-?
Which is stronger--the lure of
the Spanish Main. of the South
Pacific. a gentle town in the
green downs of England, or
Isprightly Paris?

you said: Europe is by all odds

} duration" Shorter trips are de.
fined as those of less than 1000
! miles and fewer than eight days
Explaining the age deterrent
THE survey said:
Studies showed that vacation
travel decreased sharply after
age IS. During the 35-to-55 age
span, expenses Of rearing and
educating family are heaviest
After SIS. it seems the desire fol-
travel increases, though some
what dampened by the desire to
save for retirement and for other
contingencies. :"
AAA Contradiction
/ Among the latest surveys that
offer a contradictory view is that
conducted by the American Au-
tomobile Association, covering
1855. In a foreword, the report
booklet points out that about IS
per cent of all travel is done by
private passenger car. Also, "the
average vehicle carries three
passengers. covers 1,400 miles in
IL days Of travel. or an aggregate
of lis billion miles in pursuit
of pleasure.
On the question Of ages of
motor vacationers, the AAA sur
vey found that more than Is per
cent were IS or older. The As
81 age group had the highest
percentage, nearly 26 per cent.
The breakdown showed the 1914
age group contributed to nearly
81 per cent Of the travel; 1854,
more than 20 per cent, and IS
and over. 1877 per cent.
Other phases Of the AAA sur
vey revealed about 80 per cent of
those queried had taken at least
one vacation trip in 1855, that
80 per cent motored away from
home for two or three trips, that
9 per cent had gone on more than
three.
Preferences Explored
The AAA report goes extern
sively into preferences and habits
of travellers. how far they drove
tmore than % per cent jour-
neyed between 1000 and 5000
miles. what accommodation
they used and why. pet peeves
they encountered. etc.
Daily costs of motor vaca-
tons. with three going along,
averaged slightly more than $28.
Did they take children? Almost
81 per cent did, and "a per cent
took infants; 4.8 per cent, pets.
As to annoyances in motor
travel, unclean rest rooms led
with CAL per cent. Multiple COM
plants brought the total to more
than 100 per cent. and about
SO per cent objected also to in
adequate route markings; 49,
trucks and buses: 23.l, house
trailers. and nearly 81 per cent,
billboards.
Airline Finding
Even as the AAA was polish
ing up its own survey, another
appeared. and this too seemed
to explode the you don't travel
much after IS" theory. Pan
American World Always was
trying to learn about travel de-
sires in order to shape future
service. About 48 per cent of
those who responded to queries
were from 80 to so years Of age,
and a slightly lower percentage
was older than so.
The airline found that 80 per
cent take three-week vacations; |
also, that "a per cent have dis

VIA ABOUT THE WEATHER (?

THE AWFUL DROUGHT we are now encounter
ing brings to mind a number OF questions, as such sltua-
lions will do. The weather has been, and will be with
us forever, but that does not mean that something can
not be done about it.
Is it true that nothing whatever can be done about
the weather? Why is it that there is heavier rainfall
over some sections than others? Is that just a phenome-
non of nature, or are there steps that can be taken to
induce rainfall? Is there any direct relation between
heavy vegetation and rainfall, between heavy concen-
trations of cultivated areas and rainfall?
These are questions the answers to which we do
not know. But it would be good if somehow an effort
was made to answer them. Is there any sort OF forestry
program we could undertake, taking into account our
size, limited funds, and all the rest of it? Do we have
enough rainfall at certain periods so that an effective
water conservation program could carry us through
droughts, and thus minimize their i'll effects?
It is true that the Hams Bluff area enjoys heavy
enough rainfall, but is there anything about that area
which may be responsible for the heavier rainfall, ex-
cept, of course, the height Of the terrain? Again, we
do not know the answers, but would like to see a stab
taken at them.
ANOTHER IDEA might be to build added dams
and catchment areas SO that there is adequate water
supply during the drought, and that the water trucks"
actually have something to transport. What role the
open dams on individual estates would play is a matter
for conservation experts to solve. Yet the answers to
these would be enlghtening.
!. TT WOULD BE good to have a study made, and the
facts publisheds We know of no one who would object.
TIC the contrary, wateris so important to our lives here

Sponsorship of a master plan for
developing and landseaping the en-
tire Buckeye quarry park area is
being studied by the Bluffton Mems
Garden club. Club officials hope
final action will be taken at the
clubs August meeting.
Two possible plans of action were
discussed at the club meeting last
Wednesday evening.
The first would have the Garden
club sponsoring the plan and then
offering to carry it out through the
resources and efforts of the club.
In the second possibility the
Garden club would pay the expenses
of the landscape architect and then
present the plans to the village
Village council or the town recrea-
ton committee would then assume
responsibility for carrying out the
plan.
Club president Wilhelm Amstuti
said costs of hiring landscape
architect and completing the pro
gram are being studied before ;
recommendation is presented to th'
club.
The entire park area between
their work.
