OUR FAVORITE JAUNTS 



spiration which accompany us on our homeward way 

 is not due wholly to the landscape. 



If we have a whole day at our disposal we are often 

 tempted to go as far as W — — , for there the far-famed 

 Hull House has its Country Club given by one of its 

 most ardent supporters in memory of her husband. 

 Seventy-two acres of undulating woodland traversed by 

 a deep, winding ravine nearly a mile in extent, with a 

 spring and a swimming pool and a trickling brook; 

 — what could mortal wish for more? Here tired 

 mothers find refreshment and here the convalescent 

 finds a cure. Here also the music school carries for- 

 ward its wonderful work under strict surveillance of 

 many feathered songsters. 



In quite another direction lies a famous pottery 

 whose owner makes visitors welcome. It is an un- 

 usual experience to see in all its details the making of 

 one's favorite vase! Each member of the family takes 

 a personal pleasure in this work; it is like the old Flor- 

 entine ateliers, even a little granddaughter shyly enter- 

 tains us with the assistance of a cherished cat.
