PITY THE POOR DEAF PERttON . .There are 10 or 15 million teUphones in the United Htatos. Every Hluglo one or them was made for u perfectly normal tfurson . . . meun1"K that thiu normal person's hearing is loo per ecnt perfect, and that his ?-ar 1h the same size of ever) body else's ear, and that he has at least one perfectly good hand. . A slightly deaf Individual can h? ur over a "normal" telephone Uy #training his every nerve, holding his breath, lilting his tongue, and screwing up IiIh mentullty. A person that Is u little hit deufer can't use a phono because there ain't uny phones for semi-deaf, purtlally deaf, sorter deaf, or hnrdor-hearing folks, that would like to talk over a phone occasionally. ..And all or the telephone hells ring with the same, cricket quietness; just exactly loud'enough for a person with perfectly normal our faculties. It ran he tuned slightly louder, say?about 2 per cent, hut still a slightly deaf person can't hear. (The telephone company skips from this teeny-weeny noise hell to one that cost 3G dollars per year that stone deaf folks can hear . . . known as an outside lull). Nobody is asking lor such u fussmaker. . .Now, 1 have often wondered why somebody like a gnat, big billion dollar telephone company doesn't inv< nt a receiver that could lie turned up and down . . . so's low voices might he heard, or sweetheart whispers might In* deciphered, or a slightly <!> at person might be able in carry on an intelligent conversation without jibing the other end a hundred times . , . " How s t hat ?" .<>1 course, these octopus phone companies will install a ' thing" for ib .it folks: this "thing" is as big a a rajiio, and ?osts $24.<>0 per yoar; i' is not intended to be used by a person that lias beard a soumLyn tjf> years. Nobody wants a piano sitting on fits desk. and besides that, he simply ain't that "deaf" to start with. ( |\ S.

Nope, that can't be done; you've got to use just exactly what everybody else uses or quit trying to hear at all. (??::() --??!!') Yours a little louder, please.

Home Sweet Home on Wheels r li 41 . .11 > (Condensed from The American Men ury \ A million Americans are today living on wheels. There are 200,000 automobile trailers on tliu highways ami trailer manufacturers can not meet the current demand. The immediate factor in this movement in discontent- a revolt against 'ho depression. Take a look at a typical trailer camp. Cn(for the big tree by the commissary Ih a sign painter, a singly man who used to travel about in an old Ford. Next to him are lite domiciles or two retired army men and their wives. Then come those of four itnerant laborers. Across the "street" is the do luxe trailer of thO former vice president of a national bunk. Alongside is a harbor, who will ply ids trade in this town until the tourist season is over. A family of eight are next. On their homemade trailer two double beds that let down along the sides provide sleeping accommodations for the six children, three to a bed. The father is a carpenter, tit the moment unemployed and helping the mother and tour oldest children make baskets. Over at the other side of the camp, a little apart from the thirty-odd cars and trailers that make up the community, is another retired army man who furnishes tlm scandal for the rest, lie is apparently married, hut according to the oldest resident, who has been here nearly three months, ho has had four wives in that period. For the most part these people are a friendly, .carefree lot, fraternizing on terms of equality. The only really aloof one is a school teacher, on va< aliun and new to this sort of life. Trailers rang.- in price from less than $l()u fin a fair used one, to $4,0uo for a do luxe model. Even the lower pri. ed ones have all the necessities, including electric wiring for plugging into a camp circuit. The costly odes will he e.|ui 1?1 j si with radio, electric re! rigeration and air conditioning, electric stove, telephone to the car alnad. and hath. At regular camps, the camping fees range from nothing to $2 or so a week. 'I he trailer is often parked free by tin- side of the road, on the shore of a leant it til national park, lake, or in a trietnl s yard --tile last being a com nion 01 ciirr. tn e these days. Food is no higher on the road, since those Mailer people do th. ir own cooking. One woman says. "This is just like home, the dishes on the shelves, the food in the icebox, the stove at hand."] Auto trailers are found all over the country, following the seasons, but in greater numbers in Florida and California. The scientifically built trailer can provide comfortable housing even in the coldest weather, but few care to undergo the rigors of winter when it is just as easy to be elsewhere. The forward-looking business men of Florida were the first to see the possibilities of the trailer movement. and at Sarasota they laid out u complete trailer city with streets, lights und sewage system. Today many towns have such colonies, chiefly still in Florida. In any of these camps the fee for plugging into a light circuit, connection with running water, and for sewage facilities, seldom exceeds $2 a week. Private camp owners, operat 1 lug for profit, depend on tholr coin?l | mlssarles to increase revenues; city-i ! owned caiups on the lncreused busij nusa of the merchants. I It is not unusual to find colonies | of as many as f>00 in one camp. They move along in caravans, too, friend! ships formed along the road assuming some permanence. These people j don't worry a great deal about anything. Listen to u retired banker 'whose health several sanitariums hud : failed to improve. Then I bought this trailer and got well, it's because I ' left my troubles behind?cast off ev! ery thought of business and the old 'responsibilities. It's the healthiest I life in the world because there's no | worry." For the housewife domestic drudgery has been eliminated, for it is : impossible to spend very much of the | day in taking care of the average ' trailer, one room in size, in the trail* ; or modern conveniences are within | the reach of people of limited means, ! some of whom could not afford them before. It is small wonder then, that the typical reaction of tlm women is, : "I don't think I'll ever be content to go back to a regular house." Trailer tenants take little part in the social life of the towns where 1 they camp, bpt make their own j amusements?mostly those of earlier and simpler days. They get together and sing; a gifted one plays the guitar; a good story teller holds them enthralled; the men pitch horseshoes or pla> baseball. Some of the camps have community halls where they j lance or use the equipment?games, { piano, etc. They go to the movies and the young people do the tilings that all young people do ttlie cars can ; be unhooked at will). What of the children? While the trailer is settled they attend the local schools; when a move is made fliey < transfer to others. While now this constant changing tends to retard' their progress and breed in them a I lack of confidence, it may be that I schools will develop a more understanding acceptance of these way fa r| ers. Meanwhile they manage to get, along. In Mrs. Sutton's trailer the1 lights burn late, night after night. "I'm coaching Johnny," she explains to a curious neghbor. "He's going to j tell them in Phoenix that he belongs ! in the seventh grade instead of the sixth." In order to appreciate the possibility of this movement assuming large proportions it is only necessary to consider thaj, it is possible to live comfortably in a trailer for less than half the usual costs, with the added advantage of mobility. Laborers go from crop to crop or job to job; artisans, salesmen, etc., pursue their call-1 ings profitably wherever they are; I and people with even small incomes | arc increasingly turning to trailer life, j Also, many families, though tied dtm to jobs, are moving out of houses into trailer ears parked on vacant lots, it relatives* back yards, or whatever lo cation is at hand. A trailer car is primarily a home 01 wheels. It is a natural developmen of the tourist camps and meot.- tb< American instinct to travel, an urg< inherited from a background of oov ered wagons.
