AGED : HONEYMOONERS
Things are rather it sixes and
ns'. around, here today. It's
Seommd :.Honeymoon time, and. the
1 Battleaxe and I are flying a-
round
in •a tizzy of preparation.
The fact that we'll have an 18 -
year -old son along for . part of
the honeymoon . trip won't' slow
its` down. He can find a :girl • of
his r own. ' The ' main' thing is to
get out oftown for a while.
This . business of running a
summerhotel withthe lowest
rates on the continent Can . prove
trying. The clientele has been of
the highest class, but the whole
enterprise , s:.k .,its: drawbacks.
Not only . do . the guests :: expect
you to Stay up all night with
r them, but ..their children, who
happen ' to ` be your nieces, , nep-
hews and other small buddies,
e▪ xpect you to be on deck `at 7
a.m. to tell them:. where the cer-
eal is; ` how you turn on the lawn
sprinkler; "Are. we going swim
ming soon, Uncle Bill?.; and why('
Daddy was so grouchy when they
tried to wake him.
And .:,there- •, are '• other. ''things.
NextI'mgoingto buybar-
becue charcoal by ; the carload.:
• 'I've 'cooked- so : many steaks and
hamburgers I can't, look a steer
in the 'face: The manager of the
local booze .emporium told me
the other day he'd ' give me a
summer job next year, . because
I'm in there every day anyway.
I'veslept on 'a chesterfield.' in the
living room, a couch in my study,
a• mattress on the attic floor, and
half-reclininglawn chair, but I
haven'tbeen in my own bed ina
month. F.
Oh well, it's all ..:part ; of the
game, and we ; enjoy having them.
However, ';• I . do think it's a bit
much when they startmaking re-
servationS for next year,.and as-
suring us: they'll recommend the
place to all their friends, because
for the low rates, excellent cuis-
ine, free.• drinks, and nightly en-
tertainment (no .,,cover charge).
At any rate, with nobody book-
ed for this week, our wedding an-
niversary coming up, and daugh-
ter safely off to' camp: with enough
clothes. to go ;: to Europe, and ..a
bag of fruit, candy'. and cookies
she could scarcely lift, , we're . get-
ting ready for'' The Trip:
,First leg' of The' Trip ,will be
up the :;Great Lakes, and • I • quote
from the folder, ". long, .Lazy,;
brilliant days . cool nights with
stars swinging low .. sky-blue
waters etc." :. Actually,we'll
have only one and a : half of those
7.
long, lazy days, but': two . of those
star -swinging nights. it'll' rain..
I'II give odds. Eight/ to, one.

',We're • on: a ' : assertg
going, passenger
steamer known as Hugh's Boat.
It : used' to belong to • a steamer
service line, but' since son Hugh
obtained a job this . summer . as •
Entertainment Steward, it has be-
come known far andwide as
Hugh's Boat. After .all,, he has a
pretty ''important , position. He's
listed on • the directory of feature
services with the Barber, Handy
Shop and .Motion . Pictures. ,
I've promised to help him -en
tertain the passengers by rend-
ering my famous version of a
drunk singing, "I ` Belong Tae
Glasgie", He was reluctant to im-
