The WHY of this DIRECTORY
IN the early days the small, exclusive Inn was about the only type of place available. Later the demand was for ostentatious and glamorous hostelries. Now the pendulum has swung again and travelers and vacationists are looking for places of Early American atmosphere with the added appurtenances of electric lights, steam heat, food that is prepared in such quantities that the personal touch is not lost.
To meet the demands of the present day traveler for a comprehensive list of such places we have prepared this directory of fine old Inns, Informal Resort Hotels and Guest Houses (rightfully named ‘‘Guest Estates’’).
This is a new service, as never before has the traveling public had the opportunity of enjoying these Guest Estates.
For inclusion in this directory our demands are exacting as all places listed must have every modern convenience in such abundance that the comfort of your stay is assured. They must operate characteristically of their locations—if in the New England States a New England atmosphere; if in the Southern States a Southern atmosphere.
On a trip from New York to Miami one could stop in ten towns without being able to find one place that would be up to the glowing tribute of the letter someone wrote describing 4is luck on just such a trip and yet in every town there is such a place, a place where you will be happy over our selection and ready to move on only when the resources of the neighborhood’s sightseeing possibilities are exhausted.
If the publisher of this Directory, after spending hours and days and weeks hunting for such places, took two years to find them, how much chance has the casual traveler of finding what he wants in an hour? ,
With this Directory you cannot miss! It lists places that meet the demands of the most discriminating traveler; some that are unique in all the world; some where your visit will be the event of your life; and all will be remembered with pleasure for years.

CHARLESTON
Romantic South Carolina—America’s Most Historic City
The quaint and picturesque city of Charleston, South Caro-
lina, founded in 1670, is generally known as “America’s Most
Historic City” and is indeed one that every American should
visit. The old world influence of generations past has been re-
tained and is visible today in architecture, customs and traditions.
Charleston and the “coastal low country’? are noted for the
beauty of both public and private gardens. The world renowned
Magnolia Gardens and Middleton Gardens, portions of great old
plantation estates, are open to the public from January through
April at a nominal admission charge. They are famed for the
display of Camellias and Azaleas. Middleton Gardens is the old-
est landscape garden in America and Magnolia Gardens has been
called the “most beautiful garden in the world”.
In and near the present city of Charleston have been enacted
an impressive number of the outstanding events and develop-
ments of American history. On nearby Sullivans Island, where
now stands Fort Moultrie, the colonists under Col. Wm. Moul-
trie gained the first decisive victory over the British in the war to
gain independence. In Charleston harbor is famous Fort Sum-
ter, against which was directed the first shot of the War Between
the States. In the city is the Old Exchange Building, where was
set up in 1776 by the Provincial Congress, the first independent
government in this country.
Charleston is located on the splendid all-paved north-south
highway routes known as the “Ocean Highway” and the “Sea
Level Route’. It is readily accessible by rail, bus, steamship and
airplane.

VACATIONING IN CUBA
By LOUISE WINTER
Reasons Why You Should Spend Your Vacation
in Cuba
Every vacation should not only be a change for the body, tired
with the daily grind, exhausted by household cares or fatigued by
the social round, but it should also be a change for the spirit.
New scenes to revive our waning interest in an ever-changing
world, other people, whose customs and manner of living are
different to ours, even another language in which they express
their thoughts. These things are what bring thousands of tourists
every year to the Latin-American countries and make most of them
stop off at Cuba to linger here as long as vacation time allows.

Goin' Places
Many a song has been written about
the joys of the open road - and it
IS lots of fun to get in your car,
pack the grips and the kids in the
back and go places.
Goin' places is all right - but stop-
ping in SOME places takes the joys
away. High prices, poor accommo-
dations, and many inconveniences
have deterred many a family from
goin' places
But now GUILD HOUSES all over
the country provide you with Guest
Houses, Inns and Resort Hotels
of culture and refinement, really
homelike accommodations at prices
a man with a family can afford.
Patronize GUILD HOUSES and
their associates and you will enjoy
your trip more.
