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.

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." :.
