The Vacation 

 Problem 



Where to spend the two weeks' vacation 

 that falls to the lot of the average busi- 

 ness man is always somewhat of a problem 

 when the time arrives. Many a 

 manwouldalmost rather stay inhis 

 office than be bothered looking 

 over the "literature" of the var- 

 ious railroad companies and still 

 not find what he wants. 



Exactly what a man does want when he 

 decides to go away depends entirely on his 

 inclinations and temperament and of course 

 his purse. If he is a sportsman, he will 

 want to know where and when he can find 

 good fishing or shooting of the particular 



kind he needs, without infringing on game laws or property 

 rights ; if he is fond of sailing or canoeing, he will want to 

 know where these particular pastimes can best be indulged in. 

 Does he want quiet or companionship, rest or exercise, the 

 air of the mountains or that of the sea ? All these things, 

 together with the most important one — the price — can be 

 had for the asking from the Raymond & Whitcomb and Country- 

 Life Hotel and Resort Bureau.
