tion with witches and witchcraft. Others think that it is because a witch-hazel branch is commonly used tor a divining rod. Mans devices are used bv dowsers: the forked stick is most common; witchhazel twigs are most popular. Most geologists believe that in the long run a little scientific information can be more useful than a forked stick in locating water or minerals underground.

Travel agents don t charge a cent for regular Service, yet they are a gold’ mine of advice and service They’re paid a commission on tickets and on hotels and other accommodations they book To avoid charges on longdistance calls or cables, contact an agent well m advance of your top. advises Dr Armstrong But expect a charge if you want a complicated tour individually tailored Friends who are seasoned travelers may know of a good agent If an agent is officially

recognized by the International Air Transport Association, railways. ! and cruise lines, chances are be or she is well established and reputable. Once you’ve found a good one, visit him mid-week when he has time to give sound advice and prepare a trip according to your tastes. Package tours usually last one to three weeks and feature an inclusive price covering airline ticket, hotel room, and transfers to-and-from the destination airport Some offer meals for additional cost; others feature

sightseeing, .theater performances, shows, etc. Although these tours are generally less expensive, they are usually based on two persons traveling together , persons traveling alone will probably pay a “single'’ supplementary fee. Most tours are marketed through travel agencies, which provide you with all necessary documentation fairline ticket, accommodation verification). Established agencies are generally reliable, but it's still a /good idea to beware of the deal that sounds “too good to be true.” It may not be, cautions the Purdue specialist. Even on a package tour such documents as passports, visas, and proof of inoculation are your responsibility, but your travel agent should advise you well in advance of exactly what you’ll need. For example, return-fare insurance is available, but you must buy it when you book your trip. Moderately priced travel insurance is also available, but you should understand its limitations. Don’t overlook money-saving opportunities, urges Dr. Armstrong. Airline tickets and accommodations are priced lower ’during off-season periods, so you might want to consult your agent as to best times to travel. Before you ever leave home, get to know your destination. Your home encyclopedia, library bocks, brochures from travel agencies and airlines, the tourist board representative of your intended host country — all these help you get acquainted with your chosen holiday site ... a first step to an A-l vacation. Now look at yourself If you suffer from hay fever, why visit a pollen-laden country? If you’ve experienced heart trouble, a holiday at 7,000 feet may not be wise A medical check-up is not a bad ide*. A final caution about pickpockets and thieves. They know all the busy places where tourists congregate — beaches, nightspots. stations and airports. They would like to get hold of vour possessions and money. Travelers’ checks are a wise investment, emphasizes Dr Armstrong Remember that you are a guest in your chosen holiday country, even if you are paying for the privilege, the Purdue specialist reminds Quite often, people abroad will judge the whole erf the United Sates by your actions. Bon Voyage!
