where Warren Harding had served
the state as senator, had become an
altar upon which the sacrifice to serv-

maintained a silent vigil at the side
of the coffin as the people poured
past.

morning from a nearby stream, take
along line and set of hooks. The
pole can be cut from any tree and
will prove just as satisfactory as the
most expensive steel rod-many times
even more so.
As to food, this, too, will depend
to q large extent on the country you
intend touring. but for the most part,
you will. be able to purchase your
food requirements from day to day.
However, it is a wise plan to have
a few substantial extras on hand at
all times in case of any emergency.
To those who do not care for the
wood fire, their equipment can be
completed with the addition OF
stove. There are several excellent
stoves for motor camping. One OF
the best is flat stove as illustrated
on this page, which is made in one,
two and three burners. This is a
take-down stove and can be packed in
very small space. 1t operates with
a pump which gives the flame a ter
rifle force and supplies intense heat
in a very few minutes. 1t burns
gasoline, which in itself is an attrac-
tive advantage in that there is always
supply of gasoline in the car.
Hints For Campers.
The above list of equipment looks
a great deal more formidable than it
really is. II is for the most part a
take down essential which may be
folded into a small compact mass.
Taken all in all, it is q small outfit
which can be carried securely on the
running board or on a trunk rack in
the rear Of the car.
Before starting out on your tour.
inspect your side curtains and see
that they are in good condition for
ing the equipment during rainy
weather or during the night from the
heavy mist.
A clear understanding Of just what
tasks each member of the party has
to perform will not only facilitate
matters a great deal. but will conserve
| considerable valuable time.
In selecting good camping site
for the night, pick an elevated piece
of land if possible, high and dry from
i the water and darhpness. Choose good
hard ground. or. if that is impossible,
a sandy soil does not make. bad
camping ground. If you can find q
dry spot between a few shelterins
trees. this will make not only a pic
turesque site, but an attractive one
in many features as well. Here is 9
piece of advice which has cost a great
many nights of discomfort 10 learn
and which will prove valuable to the
amateur and that is-don't pass by 9
good camping spot simply to add {
few more miles to your days record
There is always the looming chanc,
that you will not meet with another

RADICAL CHANGES
IN TRUCK DESIGN
PREDICTED BY DAY
G.M.C. Official Believes
Great Progress to Be
Made in Future.

Better motor trucks will result
from the wave of legislative action
now being discussed by various state
legislatures, according to w. l.. Day,
president and general manager of the
General Motors Truck company OF
Pontiac, Mich.
The motor trucks Of today, Mr.. Day
says, are so far superior TO those of
decade ago that there can be no
comparison, but, he believes, the
progress is going to continue and
within the next few years the people
will see vastly different types. than
those now in use.
"Many legislatures are discussing
laws to govern trucks" said Mr.. Day.
"Some OF these laws embody gasoline
taxes. others weight taxes and others
just plain, ordinary bills which seek
| to curb the motor trucks growth.
Contrary to general belief, the
| truck manufacturer welcomes fair
laws. They will have two effects.
First. they will increase the state
revenues which in turn will increase
the good roads, while the roads will
make the sale Of motor trucks much
easier.
SECONDLY. they will stimulate en-
gineers to reduce the weight of trucks
and to so construct the motors that
they will give greater mileage thar
they do now. This means better
transportation, at less cost, and this
in turn, means more sales for thu
truck manufacturer.
alt is n proven fact that the sale,
OF motor trucks will increase in exac'
proportion TO the economy with which
they can be operated for the averag,
business man will only buy when Il
can be shown that the truck can say,
him money. Over the older methods o.

had attended Sunday school. When the

placed the weekly family offering in the
