town becomes a town again not just a shopping centre the citizens slow down stretch their backs and look around at each other within a week they have forgotten the scramble and the rush and the foolish business of marking money and full of re newed interest in their town and themselves get down to something serious like planning a hunting trip or having a party dreamily watching the miles stop fety while the train snaked its way across the prairies recently i found myself recalling with a grin my ant encounter with a roomette not so many moons ago on that occasion when i bought my sleeping acconubodatioo for an overnight jaunt to ottawa i thought roomette sounds nke the feminine need for privacy what more could any woman want than a powder room and bedroom comb ned i watched the night conductor rip off the stub of my ticket and marched toward car 3002 no 16 step right this way maam said the porter relieving me of mw train case and giving me a wel coining grin there it was a designers inspi ration my own room for th night the porter showed me the hande that released the bod then the clo set washing facilities and other conveniences and then left me with the admonition dont strain yourself lady if the bed she dont come down easy you ring for me 1 was absolutely fascinated by the fact i hadnt needed a shoe horn to bet me settled but the heavy steel door with its patent lock gace cae some masgivinc they might need a can opener to pry me out 1 soon discovered there is a rou tine that must be observed in mak ing preparations for retiring in a roomette first i locked the door then found i was trapped between the door and the bed i had let half half way up up she went again and i opened the door and again released the bed i had it all nice ty settled with the safety lock in place when i discovered ay train case was iinderneath i felt like a fool i can tell you as i peeked out of my door to see if anyone were in the aisle then crawled under the bed to retrieve the bag once more aboard the enattress i prepared to disrobe h the cubby hole where the wash basin had a home was half way under the bedfrane and the john had rllinwhaud entirely oat i crawled again into the aisle rntwionproaadn hailed by doctors for relief of asthma sinus and allergies inimhsunw ri proud i was of my muscles but where was my train case why folded up in the bed of course by this time the bed and i were on wrestling terms but it knew i bad all its little tricks figured out i took my balancing stance again with my posterior covered by the zippedup curtains pulled down the bed grabbed the train case pushed the bed up again and there i was in the middle of the nicest little powder room you ever say when i had removed my make up washed my sticky bands and put my shoes in the locker for a neat shine by the porter i flexed ray muscles again and down came the bed as cooperative as a fold ing sun cot beside me in a neat little portion of the daytime seat which the bed did not hog were my slippers and dressing gown i would be properly costumed for the morning stint of opening the door raising the bed and prepar ing to dress for a graceful exit from car 3002 roomettes of course have been whining for years now over the cnr tracks that cross this contin ent while i had been jockeying a tyepwnter chair before my vaga bonding began the railroad had been right in step with this mod era age but it has taken me a lit tie while to catch up with it now that i have the technique down pat my repeated dates with a roomette are the happy experiences they were planned to be by railroad en gineers 1 recall now how pleasant it was on that earlier trip to open my eyes and see the sun reflected in the windows of the factory dose to the tracks in perth 1 knew i had plenty of ume to lie there lazily and contemplate my sojourn in ot tawa ft wasnt so long ago that a woman had to be up at he crack of dawn when travelling if she wanted to wash her teeth before
