MOTOR PILGRIMAGE
 ID SOUTH STARTS
ThouSands Go to Florida by Auto
 mobile for the Winter

Jacksonville. Florida, Nov. G. Somebody in Maine or Minnesota dis covered few years ago that he could load his family into the family fiivver and drive to Florida for the winter at an expense about equal to the raii- road fare for one person.
 Now motor cars. from the quiet running sedan to the rattling. bang ins flivver with frying pans, lanterns. coffee-pots. buckets and other utensils attached all over them from radiators to spare tire racks. descend upon Florida in droves bearing the van- guard of the thousands of tourists who motor to the peninsular in the fall from all parts of the union.
 The movement Is not expected to be in full swing before the middle of November. but for weeks they have been trickling through the gateways and by October IS it was estimated that during the daylight hours one tourist car was crossing the border over the three main highways every fifteen minutes. Some of the vehicles include contraptions never before seen on four wheels. One favored by many VI ioNSiOIo 10 O. SHdooio ''WitH d one room house upon 1t, equipped with everything from stationary wash basin to rocking chairs. r
 The flivver with camping equip ment suspended from every possible part of the car to which bit of wire or cord can be attached, is the most common long distance traveller. A ''hay burner" lantern, one of the va riety usually seen about farmhouses, may be attached to the radiator cap. Under the car may be swinging two or three water buckets, each filled with cooking utensils or other articles. A frying pan may be attached to door handle and the running. boards usually are weighted down with bag gage and the inevitable small tent that may be erected within few minutes when the tourist finds a. likely place to stop for the night. Every city and town in Florida along the motor routes within the last few years has established a camp site, and in the case of those on the outskirts of the larger places, are equipped with elec- tric lights, water mains and sewerage. Every camp now is under the super vision of the state board of health and one sanitary engineer devotes his en- tire time during the winter to the in- spection of them.
