The Unforgettable Vacation ONCE to everyone there comes the vacation that touches the high-water mark of human enjoyment. IT may have been a trip to Niagara Falls, or a whirlwind round of gayeties in New York, or an automobile tour of Yellowstone, or a week in the ; Canadian Rockies, or a camping trip in the Maine woods, or a boat journey to Bermuda, or to the old world, or a priceless January in Florida. WHEREVER it may have been—and the list is endless —the memories of that vacation will brighten your life forever. YOU planned the trip of course, but don’t you remember reading the travel advertisements and sending for the “detailed information regarding accommodations, rates, etc.”? REMEMBER how undecided the family was until almost the last minute when one especially attracItive booklet settled the whole thing? Remember how the advertisements helped you select the right kind of clothing and baggage and letters of credit and travelers’ checks and fishing tackle and camp equipment and cameras, and a veritable host of other things that made the whole affair so exciting and so enjoyable. ADVERISING helped you to do the right things and to have the right things with which to do them. * AND don’t forget this—if you haven’t had your unforgetable vacation yet, you’ll find the way to it through the advertising columns. Because if a vaI' cation isn’t one of the unforgetable variety, it won’t be advertised; and if it is, it will be! Read advertising regularly Decatur Daily Democrat
