Dude camp sites may shortly be-
come as popular as dude ranches.
This is the twentieth century.
Every normal person likes the open,
but the open must be modernized
today to be attractive.
Motorists no longer journey
through vacationIand In dilapidated
cars. A smart looking phaeton or
a finely equipped sedan has mod
eFni3ed that feature Of it. So, too,
the process of camping itself is
bein8 brought UP to date.
r. Discomforts Overcome
Dlseomforts. poorly cooked foods
IND CRIME no longer appeal to the
man who goes camping. He has
been educated to a higher order of
living. He cannot retrogress for
D day, much less two weeks. He
knows that he does not have to
take nature with the old deficien-
eiee.
Camping has been motorized,
which 10 equivalent to saying that
q has been nodernized. The man
who Is accustomed to the comfort
oe balloon tires, long, fiat springs,
and the latest in seat cushion
springs doesn't fancy breaking his
back on q makeshift bed, even If
lt Is out-of-doors. In short, the
naotorist who goes to nature for his
vacation isn't willing to pay a
penalty He viii not concede that
b penalty Is necessary.
Camp Sites Improved
Public camp sites, while still in
their infancy, have eliminated sew
aral Of the objections which mod
0rn men ana women find in out
doot living. Chief among these is
bAnlshment of fear.
A nation accustomed to the Sc
eurttY OF police protection and
&eeplng behind locked doors can
not suddenly parade itself before
Bird, beast and stray man with
out feeling a trifle uneasy. Tbs
idea that camping out means risk
has kept many a person away
from this great adventure, but
The modern camp site offers Sc
curity. The gregarious instinct Is
being humored, and camping out
81 increasing in popularity.
Camping out is, therefore, chang
ing from an avocation for the
Venturesome to an annual feature
for everyone. It is bound to

Judging by the great increase in

The latter point is important.

It is case of. too much nature

A sudden change Of heart and
momentary desire for manu-

vacation, seek a cheap hotel and
sacrifice the advantages Of gen.
uine open air life.
Here is where the public camp
plays a new role. It offer its
patrons an opportunity for visiting,
