I've been married for nearly 20 years, all of them"to the same dame, and ' I understand less at this moment about the so-called / feminine .process . of . thinking than I did on my wedding day, This admission is • a result of the latest turn in our economic waltz 'with this summer. Before holidays began, we had discussed making a trip to the west coast. Then my 'wife took. . inventory of the finances and stated flatly:that we couldn't of ford it, even if we camped the way and ate at the Salvation, Army. I was rather relieved. I love to travel, : but I' hate traveling with 'women. •They fuss about missing trains.: They worry about hotel' oms. They take enough ro h clothes on a week's trip to take them around the world on a cruise. And they constantly put their hair = up and, take it 'down.- . Therefore, . I` looked forward • to a quiet, restful summer. Lots Of golf, Plenty of swims. A few fishing jaunts; An occasional ex- cursion x- cursion to see a play, Then came the refrig erator : fiasco,, already related here.' Net • loss Of :$350..That really ,put the clincher on our trip to the coast. Then came the • call, . collect, from Vancouver. The•/son` arid . :heir . informed us casually, but With a 'tremour, • that he didn't• think he'd , go 'back to college. You.° see, the' boat' he's ..working on plies the Pacific to Acapulco,, " Mexico, in the winter. .And`you • see, he could get a job on her as • a waiter:: And you . see, he'd be making $10,000 a year, at only 19, which :is pretty good; ,eh? And you'see, itwould be•a great :. : chance :to see the ,world. And you see, he'd' be more mature ' in. 'a year, and besides,would be able to. pay: for his . whole.: year. at school; when he 'went. back, And so on: Well! I've seen his old lady fly 'off: the handle. Many. times. But I've never seen . her.: go straight up in . the air and re- main .suspended- there through most of a phone' call; that. cost . me eleven bucks So, \logically,/ we are going to ;Vancouver. I• , mean, ,after. ;all, you only . live once. And why. shouldn't you take a trip when you're young enough to enjoy: it.. And ' what the . heck, • it's" only money, isn't it? And so on. It's nothing to' do, with seeing Hugh; or dragging him home` in chains Not at all.: What ever • gave• .anyone that idea? Why',.. he's only ashore 10, hours' in .• Vancouver and: who'd. spend -a ' thousand dollars to fly' out there to see him for that length ::of .time? ' Especially when we sent him. out there .to; save $800 to - .Ward his college fees: That . would •be ridiculous,wouldn't it?'
