The fewer things you can cart along

vice Theodore Won Keller gives to
prospective motor campers in a story
which appeared in recent issue Of the
Motorist.
Among other things this writer
says: ''Thcre's a world of difference
between what you need and what Won

stance, it's very nice and convenient
to haze one of the latest eollapsiblc

fire built from brush and dry wood,
with trench or stone below, does Just
as well; and if you take pride in liv-

this advice with; "If you don I know

He paused to watch the recruiting,
When, fired by fife and drum,
He bowed his head to Old Glery
And thought that it whispered,
'fCome!"
The Kid, not being Stacker,
Stood forth with patriot-joy
To add his name to the roster,
And, God, we re proud of the boy!
The Kid has gone to the Colors
1t seems but little while
Since he drilled a school boy. army
In a truly martial style.
But now he IS man, soldier,
And we lend him listening ear,
For his heart is heart all loyal,
discouraged by the curse of fear.
His dad. when he told him, shuddered,
His mother hearing it cried;
Yet, blessed with a mother nature,
She wept with mothers pride.
But he whose old shoulders straight
ened
Was Granddad-for memory ran
To years when he, too, a youngster,
Was changed by the flag to a man.
