CIRCLED the globe on
i twenty-six dollars"
"Four of us traveled
from coast to coast on nine-
teen dollars"
"We left for Florida with
fifty dollars and came back
4109"
tith ninety"
Statements similar to these are
'heard frequently nowadays Every
one is traveling It matters little it
meems whether you can afford tis
itravel Just set out and ProvidEnct
Will take care of you seems to be the
formula
At least tills was true until re-
cently Now it appears "bumming"
one's way is becoming increasingly
difficult Interviews with recent ad-
venturers wlo had set out with a
burning desire and a five-dollar bill
to see the world all indicate that the
world Is becoming hard-boiled and has
grown tired of lending its co-operation
to ambitious but practically bank-
rupt "bummers"
This is thrown In here at the be-
ginning as a bit of precautionary in-
sP formation for those who reading this
may find in It the spark which would
set off that urge present in most of us
at some time to break with our sur-
roundings and go Five years ago you
might have made a success of it but
today it's different Too many have
played the game The sympathy of
the world toward such enterprises is
nearly exhausted Askthose who have
had recent experiences
The hobo of yesteryear was a clown
character He was more laughed at
than pitied Prodigal son of one kind
or another be found the open road
an avenue of escape from his bur-
dens It was a life of danger in Which
was mixed adventure and hardship
- hungry days and bedless nights and
even jail and the rockplle
The "blanket stiff" the most ro-
mantic of the hoboes followed the
early trails westward and crowded
the frontier to the ocean With the
rest of the pioneers the 'blanket stiff"
has all but vanished By his brawn
the railroads were built And in turn
this thing he created served only to
- spell his doom and create in his stead
the train-riding hobo
The Motor Tramp Arrives
The paved highway and the automo-
bile today is hastening the passing of
the train-riding generation The day
of the motor tramp is here and scoff
the 'hoes of the old school it's a soft
life Train-riding was a man's game
and only men played it If women
ventured on the road they went care-
fully disguised
But the automobile invading hobo-
land changed things Life is so at-
tractive and easy that it may be
followed by women and even by chil-
dren If the old hobo was a burden
on society he was a social problem
merely because he was a transient
and homeless man A few meals and
a short job would see him on his way
Few took him seriously But the au-
tomobile gives us entire hobo families
resulting in any number of social and
economic problems
On the roads today are two classes:
Hawaii's One-Time Navy
At one time Hawaii had a navy all
ter own but that was back in the
days of long ago when she fled a king
—King Kalabautt The "navy" con-
sisted of one vessel the schooner Ex-
plorer which was refitted and re-
named the Kaimiloa The island's
"navy'' made but one long trip dur-
ing its existence—to Samoa The night
before sailing a banquet was given
at whieh the followng toast wets

the "hitch-hikers" without cars of their
and the car owners 'rbere is a
wide range of types in both classes
from the penniless jobless family to
the carefree hitch-hiker with money in
his pocket
The ranks of the bitch-hikers are
made up chiefly of young folk khaki
clad with packs on their backs
Equipped for hiking they bike but
little once they have acquired the
knack of gaining the sympathetic mo-
torist's good will Among them you
Avill find the modern young woman out
for experience the college graduate
spending his vacation before buckling
down to work and even high school
lads wearing their first long trousers
Young married couples too poor to
own a car and too energetic to stay
at home find this means to break with
convention to absorb a bit of wordly
wisdom and to enjoy the thrill never
encountered in their years of hum-
drum existence In drab homes For
many the open road Is indeed an ave-
nue of escape
They Play and Work
Occasionally your hitch-hiker Is
forced to work Here and there be
or she will wrestle dishes In a res-
taurant perhaps wash windows mow
lawns or take any odd job that pre-
sents itself For emergencies most
of them have resources upon which
they can draw This is a wise pre-
caution for at times the labor supply
In the odd-Job market exceeds the
demand
Society may be just a bit bored by
these hitchNking hoboes with their
flair for "self-expression" and the
''new freedom" They are tolerated
however for they present no consid-
erable social problem Generally'lhey
knoW where they are going and how
they are going to get there
The second class of modern hoboes
—the "auto gypsy" the "filvver fam-
lly"—has become a pest to the towns
and a trial to the cities in many sec-
tions of the country From all indi-
cations their number is on the in-
crease They are most troublesome In
the West particularly along the Pa-
cific coast where food is plentiful
fuel is cheap and the climate pleas-
ant The hobo of the old school was a
colorful gent who begged end lillfered
as he went While his exploits were
specterular the social problems in-
volved were not difficult They could
lie Jailed or driven out of town Bring
women and children into the picture
and such methods cannot be applied
The wandering family cannot be driv-
en and they must not be sent away
hungry
"Cheese It de cops!" would sent-
ter a campfire gathering of old-time
hoboes But other methods must be
found in handling the auto gypsies
offered: "Here's to Hawaii's own
navy what she will do some and
what she won't do mostly" This toast
outlived the "navy" many years—
Pathfinder Magazine
Un looked-For Windfall
Once upon a time—say a dozen
years ago—there was a man in Hy-
annis Mass relates the Boston Globe
who owed another man some money
It was only $275 but since he didn't
have the cash he gave his creditor a
deed to some wild land he owned way
V -erg
who infest the camps and parking
grounds so generously provided In
towns and cities
A Bee-Line for Charity
Arriving in town the auto gypsy
and his family seek out the nearest
charitable organization If there is
no such body he approaches the towr
officials He wants work he says
Meanwhile his family throw them
selves upon the charity of the towns
people
If no work Is found the usual pro-
cedure is to stack the car with ra-
tions for a few days fill the gas tank
and hurry them awny It's the easiest
way out of an unfortunate situation
Both sides win: the town has rid it-
self of another charge and the family
has prolonged its miserable existence
And a miserable existence it is—
from the point of view of the individu-
al who loves his home Here is a
hobo plus his family Instead of leav-
ing them and wandering alone he
takes his family along The old train-
riding hobo frequently was a family
deserter but in the new order the
family stick together All their world-
ly possessions ere in or strapped to
their decrepit vehicle
What happens to the children reared
under such circumstances? What of
their education? Will they too grow
up to be hoboes? This is the gravest
aspect of the many social problems
artsintr from life on the open road
Pauperism breeds pauperism True
the child learns many tricks hut they
will he of little use in the ordinary
walks of life
The Country Has Been Kind
As the family travels the education
of the road chli-d-is Interrupted again
and again Absence from school as
long as an entire year is not uncom-
mon Already steps have been taken
for reaching the truant child of the
auto gypsy Several counties in Cali-
fornia have truant officers on motor-
cycles Patrolling the highways they
are ever alert for these dodgers of
the three R's
flood roads cheap cars and fuel
make it easy for the auto gypsy Un-
til recently the country has been kind
to his tribe Enjoying the prestige
afforded by possession of an automo-
bile he and his family have been re-
garded in the past as an exceptional
case "These poor folks have been
unfortunate" thought the townspeople
touched deeply ty the sight of a wom-
an and her children poorly clothed
dusty tired hungry And so they
helped them
But as their tribe increased and
"these poor folks" came to be re-
garded as just another hobo family
sentiment began to change "It's a
fine game this 'bumming' your way
about the country" say the exasper-
ated people of town and countryside
ilz
Inland to square the acco'unt The
new owner tucked the deed away
among his papers and proceeded to
forget all about It Recently he ran
across it and found he held title to
some 10 acres of land that Is easily
worth at the regular market price
$100 an acre

THE TWO DANDELIONS
"How did you get here?" asked
the first Dandelion of its neighbor
"I was just
about to ask
(1e-1 you" Sl(
il' the
it second Dandelion
"It's a joke
anywey" said the
first Dandelion
t) "I think it's
-fun" said the
a
r1T second Dande
''t lion
"Deur me but
P c they'll be
shocked" said the
444m first Dandelion
" 11 orrified"
said the second
C-11 Dandelion
"Fancy With
There Are a
Number of Rob-
all this gran-
ins deur" said the
first Dandelion
"They will not allow it for long"
said the seeond Dandelion
"They will have us removed" the
first Dandelion said
"I rather enjoy it here" said the
second Dandelion
think it's pretty nice" saId the
first Dandelion
"There are a numher of robins
about" the second Dandelion said
"They have come here too"
e"They're everywhere" said the first
Dandelion "They're not snobbish yet
they do love well-kept lawns and
beautiful grounds
"But they don't sing any more
3weetly here than they do near a
shabby place"
"I don't wonder they enjoy It here"
the second Dandelion said "as it i8
Et) beautiful"
Now this was the most wonder-
ful grounds and the most wonderful
place and the most elaborate and rich
and amazingly extensive estate and
everything was in perfect order
Oh it was so rich so rich that not
a weed was to be found
You could tell from the look of It
that there were many many people
employed to keep the place in perfect
order
Not a border around a flower bed or
path was uneven Nothing had been
left to be done on another gay
There was not a shrub that was not
perfectly trimmed nor a hedge nor
was the grass any longer than It
should be
All the flower beds shrubs walks
paths roadways lawns terraces were
In perfect perfect order
Except—on one of the finest ter-
races there were these two Dande-
lions There WaS not a dandelion any-
where else A dandelion root was dug
up with such hurry that it never had
the chance to become a flower and
then a bit of fluff to be blown about
with the wind and so to scatter its
seed
The dandelions had no chance here
to he gay and bright and yellow or
naughty and seed-throwing
This was the first time any dande-
lions had come to flower
And there they were not 'far off
from each other two bright bright
yellow dandelions in a smooth per-
fect green terrace
"We'll be noticed before long" said
the first Dandelion "and then we'll
be thrown away"
"But this has
been a great ex-
perience" said fr itj
the second Dan-
f
"Members o
our family have (101
found their way 6 -ay
mit )11
to great estates
for a little while
at any rate but
somehow this 011t
place is so grand
am surprised to
find myself and
to find you
here" r N
"It really Is an A Little B o y
amazing dande- Came Running
lion experience"
said the first Dandelion
Just then a little boy came running
toward the terrace a little boy fol-
lowed by a governess and a nurse
Ile ran toward the two dandelions
and shouted with glee "Oh see the
two beautiful yellow flowers in the
green grass" and the Dandelions were
thrilled
The Biggest Bigger
Mrs Bigger had a baby Which was
the bigger Mrs Bigger or the baby?
The baby because It was a little
Bigger
Mr Bigger came home Now which
was bigger Mr Bigger Mrs Bigger
o: the baby?
Mr Bigger because be was Father
(farther) Bigger
Mr Bigger died Now which was
the bigger Mrs Bigger or the baby?
Mrs Bigger because the baby was
fatherless (far the less)
Labor Saving
"Bobby I see your music teacher
coming Have you washed your face
and hands?"
"Yes'rn"
"And your eater
"Ya the one that will be next t
her"
THE LAST HATS OF SUMMER
FOR TOTS' SUMMER WEAR
T im last rose of summer and the
last hat of summer are alike beau-
tiful but whereas the last rose was
left blooming alone the last hat is
blooming among myriad others
Genius is burning like everything with
millinery designers: they continue to
overflow with fine ideas for:midsum-
mer Perhaps the season inspires the
loveliest headwear or perhaps they en-
joy exercising talents that were more
or less suppressed last winter during
the vogue of untrimmed and uninter-
esting hats
Here are five hats which have come
Into bloom recently in the millinery
garden and have been chosen as red4r-
er4
the prcblem of keeping little tots
clean without getting any further
than the washtub In a grimy world
this homely friend of the family Is tbe
only answer Here stylists come le
the rescue with clothes of all kinds
that can be washed and ironed easily
and quickly and it happens that these
very Eimply designed things look bet-
ter than any others on the youngsters
In hot weather for those who live
near the beaches bathing suits and
beach coats may bring laundry work
down to tile Irreducible minimum Lit-
tle ones wear their knitted bathing
sults during most of their waking
hours when they can play on Ott
resentative of beautiful types suited
to midsummer First there is the be-
loved leghorn adorably developed by
an applique trimming of handmade
renaissance laid over the crown The
brim-edge is bound with silk in a
color and on both the upper and un-
der brim three tight little bright little
roses are posed with folded silk
stems T13 is an exquisite hat Next
comes a wide-brimmed black laee hat
with seml-facing of chiffon and a
flange on the upper brim of a novelty
millinery fabric which Is also used for
the bow that completes a simple but
Impressive model Beautiful handcraft
Is the outstanding feature of the but
of tagal braid turned up at the back
It has a collar of folded velvet and
an intricately made trimming of nar-
row braid and small berries placed at
the right side Among these softly
feminine headpieces the black Spanish
sailor stands out boldly It is a bang-
kok straw with a collar of black belt-
ing ribbon arranged in pencil plaits
across the front edged with a nar-
row contrasting ribbon This is a
tailored hat of the severe type to be
worn with a suit of similar character
Midsummer calls for the lovely wide-
brimmed hair-braid hats like that
which tr-r this brief story to a
happy ending Lace overlays the top
of the shape and extends over the
brim edge and a cluster of roses is
posed at the front This model Is
lovely in any of the light colors
Many a ways and means commit-
tee may work overtinao cousickering
Five of the Latest Summer Hats
sands Peach coats to be--worn oves
them when needed are made of gay
printed terry cloth which does not
need to be ironed They may be made
of other printed cottons or of heavy
unbleached domestic with cut-out fig-
ures of little animals flowers chil-
dren or birds applied to them These
are Sewed down with cotton floss using
the buttonhole stitch
Chambray cotton broadcloth coarse
linens and gingham maintain their
lead at the bead of the list of depend-
able fabrics for little dresses and
rotnpers Nearly all dresses are made
with panties to match and nearly all
have round' collars in white or a plain
color and banding on the sleeves and
pockets to match the collar The
An Easily Laundered Dress
pantie frock pictured of checked gitg-
ham Is cut with kimono sleeves
round neck slit a little way down at
the front and straight panties It Is
hardly more difficult to Iron than a
handkerchief The floral motif
sketched on and above the pockets Is
done with cotton floss in the lazy
daisy stitch Little boys' suits are
just as simply designed most of them
made of chambray
Even frocks ang suits in vvhich the
little tots finish the day when they
are tidied up for the family dinner
are designed very simply not t ed
swiss with colored dots on white Is
liked for them and their round col-
lars of white swiss are worked about
the edge with floss matching the dot
