KC. MMl.lt VACATIONS.
Inasmuch as the government has
recognlr.ed Ihe need of nuinmer vara
llonM by authorising Hpeclal rates on
some of the railwaya to various rec
reation polnlH, The World would
not offer to criticise thoae who take
advantage thereof,., provided, of
course, that there is snnte g'oorl rea
son fnr Ihe trip greater than the
American habit of wasting valuitl,!
time In the search of pleasure. When
it comes to a quettlon of renewal of
health and strength or the care of
some member of Ihe family whose
physical welfare , la endangered by
remaining at home there 4i(" bo no
objection to this period of bodily
renovatlnn, but the period of vaca
tion should be as brief us aa consist
ent with the object sought.
H must e remembered that th )
railways are already overtax ! In
essential btislnees. They should not
be burdened with loads of mere
pleasure seekers while tha nation's
welfare Is calling for every conserva
tion of lis transportation facilities.
It Is not very patriotic to take a long
pleasure trip by rail. If you take
your rest period near home you will
be saving tho railways for war work,
as well as saving your money for
Savings stamps and fur government
bonds. It is not patriotic, either, to
squander gasoline on profitless ex
cursions when we are preparing to
fill the air with planes to get the
Germans' goat. Neither can we for
get that hundreds of thousands of
men, women nd children are sweat
ing under the (lertnim yoke, driven
to fnce the rruelest weather In work
of unaccustomed severity lit tho
point of tho bayonet.
Kurther millions of American
young men who muni shortly face
suffering, privation und death Itself
In. the trenches are calling for the
stay-at-hnmijs to work as they never
worked before. Let no one be de
ceived. There is more work to be
done than can be done even though I
every man and woman summon his
, ., .,., ...,-
the utmost of time and effort. We
must take Into consideration our
duty to serve the boys "over there"
before wc decide to put In weeks of
Idleness, absorbing tho labor of
others to minister to our petty wants
and neglecting our share In helping
to make tho world safe for democ

"But that Isn't fair!" I returned
when Mrs. Sexton said men took
their bad natures home to their
wives.

en n't give notice and leave them In
tho lurch as the office force might
do." She laughed gaily at my ex
pression. "Now, dear, I am going to
tell you a st-ory then we will have
Bomethinsr to eat; and finish our talk
after luncheon.'
'Years ago I knew a couple who
thought they were unhappy to
gether. She was a gay llltle butter

She met a young man. rather a nice
fellow as men go. and thought she
loved him. H told her he loved her,
that he couldn't live without her,

would go with him. Tn some wnv her
