to employer and yourself? And which
is rtally most fun in the long run?
V/ith a little forethought it is en
tirely possible to combine the pleas
ure you seek with the right kind of
living. There is no better tonic or
medicine in the world than good,
wholesome, clean fun. .And there is no
more destructive poison that that type
of enjoyment that saps your vitality
and weakens your physical and moral
resistance. Here are a few dos and
don’ts that will help you to get the
most out of your vacation and will in
no way spoil your good time:
Don’t choose a place simply because
it is popular and someone has told
you you will have a ‘‘wonderful time.”
Don’t gauge its ^desirability by its
•costliness. There are many unostenta
tious summer resorts that are much
more desirable and less expensive.
Don’t go to a place unless you know-
beforehand that they serve fresh veg
etables and plenty of good milk. A

Take daily sunbaths, but take them
gradually and avoid severe sunburn.
Don’t keep thinking about how many
more days’you have before you must
return to work. It will make you rest
less and dissatisfied. Don’t get the
idea that you can exercise all day and
dance all night day after day for two
weeks and not be a physical wreck at
the end of that time.
Above all: Don’t let your vacation
cost you in lost energy and health
what you could never buy with dollars
and cents. The prime purpose of your
vacation is to bring you the greatest
amount of happiness and the highest
degree of physical benefits. It is an
arrangement designed for the mutual
benefit of employer and employee. It
is your playtime, but he has every
right to expect that you wiH come
back from your vacation fresh and in
splendid condition for the next year’s
work. _

Apparently suffering from the re

agitation when he appeared with his

then sobbed for a few seconds. Finally
he regained his*composure and later
went to the home of his mother near
the city. “
