WINTER IS THE 'TIME TO
PLAN SUMMER HOLIDAY
Ily JUI.1 CHANDLER 1IZ.
W ith the w Inter more than half spent it

thoughts wander away into the month
of roses, to the summer time when the
world is green, and we like to Co vaca

the cobwebs which have gathered over
our minds during the dreary winter
months.
Thoughts of summer are not amiss
even thus early If Ave give them a little
practical twist allowing them to evolve
into a real plan for a real holldaj.
The majority of folk want and expect
a little relaxation ever summer season
Thy promise themselves each year that
tho wiU give themselves a change of
environment a few weeks recreation
when the warm weather shall come, but
the promise is laid aside as soon as
made, so that when tho time rolls around
it Is more often than otherwise impos
sible to fulfill it. so it is just postponed
until another summer, when the same
thing happens all over again
Looks "Well Ahead.
I know one woman with whom It Is
different and I suppose there are others
as wise as she She looks ahead "with
a practical ee to the summertime while
It is vet winter, realizing that it Is

PRETTY BAGS EASILY MADE
OF RIBBON
There are man women who are not
successful at emhroidering, but who can
sew neatl and enjov making gifts for
their friends. For the bcnelit of these
needlewomen there are Innumerable
prettj bags made of cretonne and ribbon

If there is some place in which she
has been craving for many a lone day
to spend a few weeks' holiday, but al

financial reach, she makes the proper in'
qulries Into the cost of the trip, and
often finds that it Is not so much as
her imagination has pictured, whereupon.
she emplojs a systematic method of sav.
lng up the necessary amount so that
when the time planned for the vacation
arrives she need not suffer disappoint
ment through, the fear that she cannot
anora ine trip in addition to mo practi
cability of this plan, she has about as
much fun In her long anticipation of her
trip as she gets cventuallj out of the
trip itself
Faay to Save Little by I Ittle.
It Is a surprising thing how much
money one can nave, little by little, when
one begins in tlmo and without missing;
it very much from even a moderate in
come, either.
A practical neighbor of mine once told
mo that she would never have the ghost
of a chanco of retting away for even
a couple of weeks in the summer were
it not that she began to save for the
occasion the very first of January. She
basn t a great deal from which to save,
and there are a good many others of us
like her, so that I am inclined to think
that the adoption of her plan of putting;
aside a little here and there toward the
holiday when she can snare it will prove
an excellent plan for many.
There Is another excellent reason why
It Is a good plan to start now to plan
a hot-weather -vacation A trip taken
alono is a dreary affair Weeks spent
among strangers often means a desolate
time. The vacation spent in congenial
companionship is the one we remember.
Plan It now and you will have time to
persuado somo congenial friends to mak
arrangements to accompany you for i
Jovial outing It is a fact worth noting
that parties of two or four can travel
cheaper than single Individuals so that
an arrangement with congenial folk to
spend their vacation at the same time
and place that you spend jours will be
to their interest as well as yours.
Depend an Taste.
As for the selection of a place to go-
well that depends upon Individual taste
and the amount of money at ones dis
posal for a vacation The water lover
will find nothing so enjoyable as a sea
trip, and this is arranged at small cost
during the vacation months. Others who
enjo the mountains can find with no
dtfticultv scores of delightful and com
paratively reasonable places where the
fine air will bring new health and vigor
to the wlnter-wearj nerves
The point Is to make the decision now
and stick to it, I could mention many
folk who dream each year of a pleasant.
much needed change and ret for a brief
pell during the summer months but
who just go on dreaming until the time
comes, with no chance of making the
dream come true
After a long vear of work, whether at
home or in office, every woman needs
change of scene, needs to see and
meet new people, to get out of the wear
ing rut in which she has been plugging
along all winter It lsn t fair to ones
own self to fail to take the recreative
advantages of a holidav seaon at some
time durirg the jear. and the summer
time seems the season best suited to
this purpose The weeks will roll awaj
swiftly and the time will be here before
we realize It, so don t tell me that it is
looking too far ahead to plan the sum
mer vacation now.

We may talk of the beauty of cheer

talk of It as a plain, everyday duty.

be responsible for creating a Dngni,

We are creatures of moods, of whims.
and of fancies, and we think they all,
more or less, come from within. Per

is amazing the way we reach up or look

and the fancies of those who are about

READS WEIGHT
It takes two cups of granulated sugar
and two and a half cups of powdered or
pulverized sugar to make a pound The

there are some differences in the weights
of the various grades of flour
It takes ten good sized eggs' to make
a pound This Is worth knowing when
mixing a pound cake which calls for
eggs In pounds just as the other in
gredients. Some housewives allow a half pound
of butter where tho recipe calls for a
