SANTA MONICA, CALIF.
For the sake of com-
parison, two of us, out lately
on a little trip, stayed one
night at a wayside motor
camp and the next night at
the most expensive tourist
hotel in three states, rates
$25 per day per sucker.
At the tourist camp, the company
was mixed but neighborly and, lor
the most part, pleas*
ant. The only really
discordant note was
a lady in the ad>
Joining cabin who, at
all hours, kept wak-
ing her husband up.
apparently for the
purpose of telling
him another thing
about him that she
didn't like.
At the exclusive
establishment were |rv|ll g Cobb
many guests who
seemed to be suffering from severe
attacks of nervous culture, being
fearful, I'd say, that, if ever they
behaved naturally, they'd give them-
selves away. Mainly they were dull
Waxworks, even when animated,
usually are dull.
But stopping at a $25 a day hotel
has one advantage, 1 And. After-
ward, you can go around bragging
that once you stopped at a $2S-a-
day hotel. This should be a great
help socially.

Dealing With Snakes.
A CONNECTICUT congressman
is pushing an act to prohibit
importation of venomous serpents
from other countries for exhibition
purposes. His fear is that an earth-
quake or something might shake the
zoo apart and liberate a lot of dead-
ly reptiles that would start multi-
plying and constitute a n"w menace
to the lives of such of the populace
as have thus far escaped being
killed by automobiles.
Without presuming to assume that
the gentleman is a bit of an alarm-
ist, I'd like to point out that he can
obtain millions of adherents for this
measure among old-fashioned Amer-
icans by tacking in an amendment
to his bill providing that the bars
likewise shall be put up against for-
eign-born communists.

How Times Change.
I JUST read what I once knew for
myself but had forgotten in the
rush and bustle of these latter days.
It related to the attitude which
America, considerably less than half
a century ago, held toward unescort-
ed woman. For instance, au recontly
as 1800 not many respectable hotels
would permit one of them to regis-
ter.
Some time after 1900- in fact, as
I remember, it was about 1U10 -a
prominent lady was anked to leave
one of the smartest hotels in New
York city because she dared to light
a cigarette in the public lounge
As for women drinking at a bar— j
well, not even the most forward
looking liberal could conceive of so
incredible a sight as that.
And now just look at the darned
things!

hardships de Luxe.
WHEN our plutocratic classes
decide to go simple, they go
simple, regardless of what il costs
'em.
* A rich couple have just completed
n trip out here, following the ancient
trails of the early pathfinders. Like
true pioneer stock. Ibcy roughed it
in specially built twin trailers, each
about the size of a pullman but
much more complete, and were
towed by a couple of Itolls-Roycea.
The servant*, only six in number,
had to put up with two much cheap-
er cars.
During the entire trip there was
no dressing for dinner and thus,
with true democratic spirit, was
the primitive pla.i of the expedition
carried out. Every hardship en
countered enroute -such as the
champagne getting all Jolted up and
the caviar coming unglued in the
can — was cheerfully endured An
armed guard was maintained u t
night to repel kidnapers and hostile
Indian tribes.
1 wonder how Jim Uridger and Kit
Carson ever stood it with no butler
along—in fact, not even a second
man.

How Time Flies
When It is considered that a watch
Is made up of approximately 178
parts. 80 of which undergo motion,
and that the total number of the
manufacturing operations involved
is nt least 1,500, some idea of the
design problems that accompany
watchmaking becomes apparent.
Many of the parts are so small that
1 powerful magnifying glass is nec
essary to examine them in detail
Every available ten-thousandth of
an inch must be utilized in the
i'otch to attain the compactness
that characterizes the new mode.
For instance, the balance wheel
swings between the third and fourth
wheels with a clearance of only
0 00(1 inch. Screws for the balance
wheels are also striking examples
of minuteness. A thimble can huid
7,000 screws.

They Are—To Them
Very pretty girls are rather like-
ly to think all men are gallant.
People are juat as much delight
ed to encounter good manners as
they ever were. Don't think they
aren't.
The sweaty players in the game
of life always have more fun than
the supercilious spectators.
The man who tries to under-
stand women usually ends by mar-
rying one—and remaining in ig-
norance.
All the work that is done on the
farm is worth every cent of the
money that is paid for it.
Quality, Not Quantity, Counts
An egotist mistakes a big head
for greatness.
All "gentlemen's agreements"
are not made by gentlemen. That's
the trouble.
Mischievous natures like to see
how prodigiously they cao make a
pompous person swell up.
Some people can say what they
think and still be silent.
We all have two eyes and one
tongue. Therefore we should see
twice as much as we tell.

If you want RKAL. QUICK RELIEF,
take a liquid compound such as Ad-
