Of the Twenty-second Massachusetts Volun-

the wearing Of caps carried out the bIbli-
cal injunction TO women to be covered in
church. Those who argued for the white
caps insisted that women in meeting wear
ing them were fully covered, as the New
Testament requires, and that they could
therefore continue TO take of their hats
and bonnets and still be in line with ST.
Paul's admonitions. The anti-cap people
maitained that head covering meant hats
or bonnets. not caps. and that II hats or
bonnets were removed the women were
uncovered and therefore dishonored in
meeting. After a brisk argument Ii was
decided that the sisters could remove their
hats and bonnets at meeting, but keep on
their thin white caps and still be covered.
This was enough covering TO carry out
the teaching OF st. Paul. In each meeting
house, therefore. there are two vestibules,
each containing a rack. one for the hats
of men and boys and the other for the hats
and bonnets Of the women and little girls.

How well 1 recall my first attempt at

gusted and disheartened, / soon wandered
over to a strangers camp. where 1 was hos
pitably received and indicted into some of

have lived and learned and nave evolved
some practical ideas which may be of some
service TO other campers.
First the tent. A small wall tent seven by
seven or seven by nine is amply sufficient
the best rule. Here is a place where each
one can be as orderly or disorderly as he
pleases. In tentlng with another person one
loses somewhat of the pleasant solitude and
independence of camp life. and even with
the best of companions is liable to some OF
that social friction from which We flee to
die and cut my side poles in the center. Join
ing by a sheet iron tube, which works free
ly. Thus the whole tent outfit can be folded
trunk strap. and checked to destination. A
very convenient form of small tent which
would be worth trying would be to do away
tripping one up, and fasten the tent by
strong pockets at the corners, said pockets
