College Girl, Living in Box Car, Has Bad Attack of Wanderlust

In a scrubby little box car in the Cambrians freight yards of the Wheeling and Lake Erie Railroad, three miles southwest of Canton, O., lives Miss Lucille Waltz, "weighmistrcss" and disciple of the open road. I She i affixed ",thev fornier after her name last August. It -won't remain there long, for she is feeling again the call of vagabondage. The latter title was born witn her, "I guess because there are ministers and newspapermen in my ancestry, and they move around a lot!" i Miss Waltz lives in the box car with the family of an official of the yards. The yard "offices" are housed In two box cars on a side switch; Miss Waltz's home is a half mile down the track. "How would you like to live in a box car, with the railroad yards for your front door, and the open fields and woods for your back yard? I have found it interesting and comfortable." Miss Waltz said. Miss Waltz is pretty, well educated and in her twenties. Due to the wan'derlust she has been: College student, reporter on a small town paper, telephone operator at a city exchange, waitress at a summer resort, traveling eompanien to a woman of means in Chicago, and school teacher. Ready to Move. Six or eight months in one place, and she is ready to move on. "I've stayed here longer than usual." she said, "but I suppose I'll be moving soon. "Of course my family think it's awful that I am a regular tramp, but

why should one not see things while! filled Miss

earning a living?" Penvtlle. Ind.. is Miss Waltz's home town After graduating from high school, she worked on the only paper there, and was everything from the 'printer's dfcvil to assistant editor." The next fall, she entered the Indiana ftate university a.s a freshman. Going to Indianapolis with a college chum at the end of her first year, she took a position in the office of a manufacturing concern. "My chum- had to take a state examination in order to set a licensa, to teach in Indiana, and because she did not want to go alone, I went with her. Rather than idle the time away, I too took the examination. It happened that I passed and she did not. I had never thought of teaching, but now that I had a license, the idea seemed worth trying, so that winter I taught at Mugadore, Ind. Likes Teaching. "There was a certain appeal about teaching, and at the end of the term. I went to the state normal school at Muncie. When the superintendent of the Akron school district' came to Muncie in search of ..- teachers, ' I signed "up with' him to teach at Ira, near Akron. I always had wanted to come to Ohio. "At Ira I met the most interesting person I ever had the privilege of knowing. She had been a professor of languages at one of the larger American colleges, and had traveled over most of Europe. She had retired and lived with her sister, a quaint person who might have stepped but of a Dickens novel. They

had taken up violet raising." Twice a year, in the spring

fall, .Miss Waltz returns home. Last i year, she spent six weeka there, owing J to the illness of her mother, the long

est time she had spent at home since J

entering college.

Is Telephone Girl. Miss Waltz returned to Akron, just at the time several of the plants were curtailing their forces. She secured

employment as a telephone operator, after tramping the streets for weeks. It is not because Miss Waltz dislikes a small town that she has taken to roving, she insists. The bigger cities have no especial appeal. "Chicago is a good place to play in, I think, but I'd never want to play there for long.- Cleveland is better, I could work as well as play there, but jut now, my heart is set on Boston. Perhaps I may go to school there, if I like it. Cities and towns have personalities, just like people, I think; they attract or repel."
