The Camp Notebook 



A long and varied experience of taking notes in the field has 

 led to the conclusion that a camp notebook must be : 



(i). Looseleaf 



a, as each camp and camper will have individual needs 



and desires; 



b, so that only the pages needed for the trip scheduled are 



inserted ; 



c, so that the pages of the previous trip may be safely 



filed at camp ; 



d, in order that the pages may be arranged at the end of 



the season and neatly bound. 



(2). Handy size, to be carried in a pocket or attached to a belt. 



(3). Standard size, so that printed directions, identification 



charts, outline drawings, tables, etc. can be inserted or 



transferred to all field books. 



(4). Firm, smooth covers, that they may be used for a drawing 



board or a writing desk in the field. 

 (5). Durable, to stand hard usage on the hike. 

 Camp directors will appreciate the fact that the Comstock 

 Publishing Company has found such a book and is at the same 

 time placing on the market the pages asked for by each camp di- 

 rector. Such a cooperative policy bodes well for all concerned.
