Some can go, but the disadvantages of their absence from business or the home loom up so largely that It ob- scures the advantage derived from & vacation, which {ts all wrong. ‘Take a vacation if you can, and If this Is impossible, at least indulge In an occasional day's outing. It need not be a financial sacrifice if this must be considered. A trolley ride may take you Into the country where you can Indulge in a picnic—read, sleep, eat and play in the fresh country air, and the day's outing will do you a world of good. For a real quiet picnic spot you will find fdeal meadows and woods along the Boston and Westchester R. R. Tho Fort Lee or Dyckman Street Ferry will take you across the river, and between these two ferry land- ings is a stretch of ideal picnic spots, right along the shore. Tables, “ovens” and wood for the latter are at hand, so something hot is easily procurable, You can go out rowing, climb the mountain, walk in the woods or sit quietly and enjoy the cool breezes. Palisades Park is over there, too, and is a fine place to spend a pleasant day or to take dinner and spend the evening. There is a delightful one-day sail up the Hudson. You can leave 129th Street at 9.20 A. M. and go as far as Poughkeepste, visit Vassar College and see consideraple of the town before the boat leaves on the return trip. Or you can get off at Newburgh, visit Washington's Headquarters, take # ride on the trolley to Orange Lake or go across the river and go to the top of Mount Beacon per incline railway. Another pleasant sail is to Bear Mountain, where there are many at- tractions for a day's enjoyment. A trip to West Point will enable you to visit all interesting points and have a little picnic in the woods besides. The sail down the Lower Bay to Atlantic Highlands is inexpensive and it is a good place to spend a pleasant day. If you want bathing and Coney Island offers too much excitement, tuke the Staten Island ferry, which gives you a twenty minutes’ delight- ful sail for a nickel, and at St. George take a trolley to Midland Beach. If sightseeing trips are to your lik- ing, take the boat ride to Yonkers or get there by subway and trolley, then transfer to the Hastings line. This ride to Hastings is very pretty and gives you most beautiful scenery. From here you can ride or walk to Irvington and visit Sunnyside, then on to Tarrytown and see the interest- ing sites connected with Washington Irving's life, You can return by trol- loy through White Plains or per Bos- ton and Westchester Rajlroad. This is a delightful day's outing and gives you variety. ead Style Is Not So Important, but the Right Kind of Clothes Will Add a Lot to the Enjoyment of the Day’s Outing. 4 Of All Things One Must Be Pre- pared for the Little Emergen- cies That Attend These Excur- sions, ripe By Margery Wells Copyright, 1922 (New York Evening World) by Press Publishing Company.
