are fair shots with a few mighty
 keen sharpshooters.
 Arriving at your location and fol-
 lowing a lengthy argument, which
 will arise as to whether this place
 is the best in view after all and
 wouldn't you be doing better by go-
 ing through Bensonville and then
 looking around. you should pitch
 your tent. Many tent pitchers use the underhand delivery, but we
 have always found that the slow in-
 shoot has worked best except in high grass.
 Now stake out the pegs, driving s
 each one firmly into the ground. The more. firmly they are driven in, the more sure they are of pulling loose at the first breeze and what is camping without the joys of having the tent collapse at about ? o'clock in the morning?
 The tent Is now, ready for occu-
 pancy-unless. of course. you are
 living in a bungalow or hut. If you have chosen a tent for your shelter it is ready for occupancy but we must say we think you have chos- en indiscreetly in regard to your shelter. Now move your furniture in, leaving plenty of wall space for the calendar and possible stray visitor.
 Now straighten up-who hoa-watch the ridge pole-now draw two or three deep breaths-you are in the woods, living as Daniel Boone doubtlessly lived-fling your arms wide to break the bonds of busy word-now you've done tive told you that ridge pole wouldn't hold! Next Week Firewood and Treat ment of Cuts, Burns, Bruises and Malaria.
 Data obtained from the U. S. De- partment of Commerce reveals in striking manner the opportunity for New England industry in the manu- facture of airplanes, parts and ac cessories.
 No less than forty-one commodi- ties are used in manufacturing for aviation, and it is pointed out by industrial experts that the great ma jority of them are products in the making of which the New England manufacturer can, and in some cases does excel There also are Is distinct activities connected with aeronautics, such as aerial photo graphy, aerial taxi service, flying schools. etc., etc.
 Study of a directory of manufac- lecturers of airplanes and accessor- ies in the United States, compiled by the Department of Commerce, shows that while New England in dustry has made some notable con- tributions to manufacturing for aviation purposes, it's participation in these line is far from equalling its proportion of the industrial pro- duction of the United States as a whole.
 For example, out of S1 airplane factories listed by the Department of Commerce, not one is located in New England.
 In the Departments record of 67 distributors of airplanes in America, none is located in New England.
 New England is credited with one distributor of rebuilt planes out of a total of 25 in the country, and with one of the two distributors of seaplanes in the country. Twelve companies, one of them in New England, make airplane engines. This firm is, of course, the Pratt and Whitney Co. of Hartford, whose "Wasps" and Hornet" engines have established several records, and giv- en Connecticut a strong position in aviation manufacture. Twenty-three firms are listed as engine dealers, but none are in New England
 Summer Is the time when motor ists set out on little Sunday trips to see the sights, to take a swim, to cool off, or to get wrecked. In or der to help them along and carry them through the intricacies of the road mazes, various organizations have put out maps and tables of road directions. These may be very helpful, but somehow they don't seem to get into the proper spirit of the thing-tell the things you want to know. Therefore we, the Observer. present herewith the di- rections for the first of a series of Sabbath trips which We hope will give you boys and girls the most fun imaginable.
 The hot weather of the past week makes us think of the cool, inviting, waters of Long Island Sound, so for the first trip we suggest going to the shore. And Indian Neck will do as we'll as any other home of the sun- burn torture. So here We go:
 Leaving New Britain, go south on South Main street, down hill, and look hard at the wide open spaces on the right. If you have good eye sight you may see the new Spanish | War memorial. Whether or not you see it, look ahead again and pray lial u lOI SOul Ppi SOu ull- dulate over the section of highway being repaired.
 Berlin. Stop and tighten bolts loosened on Beech Swamp road. Turn left and attach pontoons before going through underpass at depot 1 Turn right at Worthington ridge after noticing positive evidences that the San Francisco fire affected Ser lin. Beware of the funny men in the road. They are cops. as you may find out by looking closely or speeding excessively.
 Pass Silver Lake to right. Lake l named from necessity of tipping | walters at inn located there.
 Meriden. The principal industry | is boosting Kid Kaplan with silver !
