How The Worker Plans And Takes His Vacation.        
 
 The worker will find most of the trips adver-
tised in the monthly program which he buys. No-
tices of the shorter excursions are usually posted
from week to week on Labor Front blackboards in each
factory. Should the worker foresee that he will
have the opportunity and means to undertake an ex-
tended vacation, he will probably buy at the begin-
ning of the year a large calendar program, issued
each January by the Gau office, listing the vari-
ous trips under the dates on which they will begin,
as well as their extent and all-inclusive price.
In every case the Worker will first make applica-
tion to his Betriebswart as he does with respect
to most of the other activities of the Strength
through Joy organization. Should he wish to dis-
tribute over a period of time payment for one of
the more expensive excursions, he may provide him-
self with a vacation savings book in which he will
paste each week special 50 pfennig stamps bought
from the local factory representative. The total
