Acton gave appalled attention to the

"You can't pass the buck, Al. Here's

It was too bad to annoy the model
and infallible Acton in this manner;
but a man who expects to become a
big -game hunter in the near future
has to practice on something. Teddy
gave himself a tally and felt almost

"I'd like to know," her husband
mused; "if that persecuted cub is plot-
ting something. I'd just like to know."
In -the line of his duty, the general
superintendent approached the third
vice president a day or two later with
a suggestion. It had to do with a
marvelous economy heating system
rumored as operating somewhere in
Quebec.
"Sure, let him go," said Weeks. "He
may as well be chasing wild geese in
Canada as fooling around here. But
why not send a practical mein?"
"I'm. sending one," said Lormer.
The big hunting occurred promptly
after Tedyy's return. It -took place
in the Old Man's private office. The
only eyewitness was Mr. Lormer. The
auditoes in the big room outside were
many. Out there work was suspended -
by common consent while the sport
went on.
"So," bellowed Weeks, Senior, '"you
expect to ask the general board to look
at a fool recommendation like this?"
"That's what I expect, sir," answer-
ed Weeks, Junior, "unless you prefer
to keep on wasting sixty-five hundred
a year of the company's money in fuel.
You say the first Cost is ruinous. I
" show that the thing pays for itself in
six years. You say it won't work. I
tell you it has worked sin Quebec since
1915;" ' • -
Weeks brushed aside Teddy's papers.
"If the scheme wa& any good, don't
you suppose we'd have heard of it?"
• "Aren't you hearing of it now? Has
anybody had time since 'Fifteen' to
hear of anything?" • •
"Don't stand there and argue."
Weeks waved a dismissing hand.
"I'll stand here and argue till I get
a respectful hearing."
Ted's face was red, and his voice
may have shaken a little.
"The company gave me this assign-
ment. I've put a naonth of work on it, I
and I want it judged on its merits."
"That's only Tali; Weeks," Mr. Lor -1
rner hinted.
"When I came here," Ted continued,
'you told me to forget I was your son,
and to expect no favors from you. All
Lbes right. Suppose you forget you're my
father, and expect no ihdulgence froth,'
me. Suppose you talk like a business
man. This plant is no kindergarten."
Weeks should have taken warning
and saved his face. But a fixed notion
that has stood for years is not dis-
lodged in seconds. Teddy, remember,
had the advantage; he had trained for
this clash for months.
"How do you dare talk fresh to
me?" cried the Old Man, rushing to
destruction. "How do you dare, you
—you --you little runt?"
"I scarcely know," Teddy respond- I

The Old Man's cheeks swelled and
his eyes bulged. So many retorts
crowded his tongue that they got.into
a traffic block and none came forth.
Mr. Lormer turned his back, gazed out
at the window, and quivered with
emotion.
"You have loaded me," Teddy pur-
sued, candidly, "with an Inferiority

phant. Before I WaS five-year-old, you

While Mr. 'Weeks still struggled for
words, Mr. ',armor pushed the young
psychologist tactfully out of the pri-

weakly:
"If he only sticks, Lormer; if he

"It has taken years, Lormer, years.
Nobody knows the fight I've had."
"Yes, Chief, but see what you've got

"That's right," said Weeks. •"See

THE PAY-AS-YOU-GO VACATION.
The girl who finds the. matter of
expense an obstacle to her vacation
plans can -perhaps get a valuable hint
or so from other girls who have de-
vised . a way to a "pay-as-you-go"
outing.
One girl in a northern Jake region
made use of her ability to amuse chil-
dren. While the mothers went on fish-
ing trips or :visited the surrounding
places of interest she helped to make
sand villages, took small children• on
voyages close to the shdre or on walks
to the berry fields. Since the girl in
charge really enjoyed children, the
work was ggit" tedigiieSfs'adher,, and the
problem of expense took care of itself.
One woman who owned a fireless
cooker kept its three compartments at
work in the service of other cottagers
who -wished to Spend their time on the
water or in side trips and so was able
to make the family vacation twice as
long as she had expected it to be.
A girl who hadg,had experience in
teaching used her forenoons, or a part
of them, in tutoring sonie children who
had echool work to make up. Her
afternoona'Were' free, and she spent all
summer at the vacation resort instead
ofmerely the three weeks that she had
thought she could afford. "
' A typist sent cards to all the hotels
and cottages saying that she 'would
answer business correspondence, make
out hotel menus or send out letters ex-
tolling the merits of the resort to pros-
pective visitots. For the last-mention-
ed work lie7-1"Ser4iYas Were sought be-
cause she put human interest into her
writing that did not appear in the
usual descriptive circulars.er
One girl and hbrother gave swirn-
min g lessons. Every morning and every
afternoon they had large classes of
persons who were eager to learn from
some one who *as really expert.
Another girl met her entire vacation
expenses by taking, finishing and sell-
ing small photographs. "Few vacation-
ists get good pictures; either they
don't know how to gauge the lights on
the ikater or they fail to pick out the
really beautiful points of interest;
maybe they went to be in the picture
themselVes • so I am always getting
commissions-tdztake pictures," she ex-
plained. She did the finishing herself
and foiand that good snapshots were
usually in great demand.
Many resorts are a considerable dis-
tance from the small town on which
they depend for their supplies. People
on vacation dislike to make trips to
town, and so one girl seized the oppor-
tunity to shop for the others. A slight
payment. from the cottager and a
small commissipn frond' the merchants
kept her in spending money all.sum-
rner.
Candy makers need only set up shop
to be successful, because all vacation-
ists have a sweet tooth and the ordi-
nary village store does not fill the de-
mand for sweets. Baking small cakes
or frying doughiruts is another way to t
earn enough to extend e holiday.
The right sort of girl can act BS
guide for a loeality. If she^knows the
points of interest in the neighborhood,
—the best fishing holes, the side trips
and -the heavy patches,—she may find
her s,erviees in steady. demand,
When yout vacation is done take
stock of your abilities; plan your cam-
paign for the next year and when the
time comes go forth confident that if

EFFECTS OF COLOR.
Some conclusions of a Central Euro-
pean society ,which" has made 'studies
of the effects of color have been quoted
in the Journal of the American Medi-
cal Association...„.Arnong them are the,
following: "•-• • •
--In order tp coinprehend thoroughly
,the, ,PsYeholag.y- of Olors and
to, usg,
•tfiat knowledge fo I .'
r ,-.tie.tlecora"tionaof
-ihterioi•s and •`exteriors of dtVellincs
piatees, one should ' familiarize himself
with the effect on the 'mind and the
emotions of the 'various colors.
WHITE makes a room appear bright -1
er, and larger but it gives a sense of
coldness and emptiness.
SCARLET gives an impression of deli-
cacy. . In a room in which the wall
and the curtains are scarlet, children
work better than usual... •
'Theeow suggests warmth and the
light of the sun and produces a feel-
ing, of comfort. Yellow paper renders
a' dark room bright and habitable.'
ORANGE has the 'same -ejualities as
yellow. Curtains of this color in a
bedroom have a stimulating effect 021
the nerves. -
RED is the color which represents
the spontaneous joy of youth but It is
also a ,color most hard 6n the -eye. A
neutral red causes a feeling of ener-
vation. Persons „ subject to mela.n-I
cholla under the inthience of red have
their dark thoughts dissipated, but
nervous people should avoid this color.
VIOLET is depressing.
BLUE is calm and comforting. Those
who are sick sleep bet,ter with a dfin
bluelamp or a blue faanP shade in
their room.
GREEN has also a calming effect.
GRAY, employed upon walls which
are very large, produces a, sensation
of desolation and emptiness.
The sick are always depressed by
obscurity and somber decorations.
While the conclusions of the Munich
Associatism may not be altogether true
they are interesting and can possibly
furnish valuable indications for the
interior decoration of houses, and of
rooms in hosPitals. '
These of course are general conclu-
sions and may not prove true in all
cases. Reactions to color vary with
individuals and depend to some extent
upon one's previous association and
experiences with color. But as a gen-
eral rule bright colors excite and
stimulate and dark ones depress. -
