28 WIVES IN A BUS
WHAT A VACATION!
\
BT WINIFRED BLACK
Way out In Illinois where you can lie awake any night in July or Aug
ust and listen to the corn growing taller and taller all night long, twenty
eight fanners' wives took time by the forelock and hired a bus and went
out for a gypsy vacation.
They went all over the state, thank you. and
stayed a different place every different night.
The last place they stopped was Chicago, they
spent two day3 In the Loop, In and out of the big
shops.
At the end of the week they all stepped Into the
bus and went bowling down the highway—home.
And when they drove Into the little country town
from which they started there were the twenty
eight husbands standing In a row waiting for them.
I wouldn't haw cared to walk Into any one of
those twenty-eight kitchens and tried to get a meal
that night would you? Now out In California the
men cook and they low It, but In Illinois—oh that
kitchen sink!
Well I’d like to haw been in that bus with those
twenty-eight women.
Wouldn't It be fun to see them forgetting about
the chickens and the milk skimming, and the berry picking, and the
churning and the weekly baking just for once?
One of the twenty-eight had never been away from her husband be
fore in her life and she had been married to him lor twenty years.
I wonder whether she’ll want to*
stay right with him every minute
the rest of her natural life or has
she found out that the world is
rather an interesting place after all
k
when you come to look at it with
your own eyes.
Wouldn't It be a fine thing If
every tired housekeeper In the
world could step Into a nice roomy
bus and go away for a whole week
every single year?
Now there Is little Mrs. Brown
with her Irritable husband and her
five cross, disagreeable children—
wouldn't you llie to see the lines
dug out of her face for a whole
week?
What do you suppose these twen
ty-eight women enjoyed the most
when they were away on their
week's vacation? ,
I'LL tell you—they didn’t know
what they were going to have to
eat for a single meal and that to
■ny housekeeper Is like a wonder
ful escape. Just think It might be
roast bee! or pork chops, or a slice
of ham slsxled In its own Juice—
oh Joy.
I do wish they would go on an
other vacation next year and In
vite me along. I'd go half across
the continent to be one of that
party, wouldn't you?
