(Jackson, Mich., Patriot.) The summer vacation season com- mences very soon after the Fourth ot July. As in many other things, the pleasures of anticipation often exceed those of realization. The win- ter vacation to milder climates pre- sents far greater attractions, But vacation planning is going on in many households. We prefer the comforts of home and Florida in the winter. Just now, however, railroad tolders, hotel booklets, and other compendiums of more or less accurate information, are being studied to find out where to go and how to get there, [ There should be some pleasure de- I rived from this quest for informa- i tion, as otherwise the prospective va- may considerable are of the lose a tion, in advance | cationizer ti shive engages in lis daily toil. In the the discomforts, tle bedbugs, and ether which are reasonably sure to be en- countered are pretty certain to be ig- rored, while in the reality they some- times loom large. The summer vacation is always more or less of a lottery. Even when we know nearly what we can count upon, we also know that we can nev- er rely upon the weather.

Washington, July 8.—(Special)— Four of the most important pro- visions and declarations of principles contained in the Democratic plat. as adopted at the Baltimore Cuncan U. Fletcher, senjor senator from Florida and president of the Southern Commercial Congress. With Dr. Clarence J. Owens, man- aging director of the Southern (om- mercial Congress, he presented these to the committee having work on the platform under way and all were ¢dopted exactly as presented. . Rural Credits. Ong of the propositions dealt with i= rural credits. The Fletcher pro- vision on this subject is as follows: . . | “We recommend that an investiga- | tion of agricultural credit societies in | fereign countries he made, so that it i may be ascertained whether a system b devized suit- the United ol rural credits able to conditions in 1) States; and we also favor legislation | permitting national banks to loan a reasonable proportion of their fund. on real estate security.” Vocationa] Education. Another principle favored is that of vocational education, the platform including the following from the Florida Senator: “We recognize the value of voca- tional education and urge federal ap- 0 e.
