254 WILD LIFE AND THE CAMERA 



It is quite a question whether waders are worth all 

 the bother they cause, for your feet get wet in 

 any event, even though it is from the condensation 

 caused by the warmth of the feet against the cold 

 water. Many people prefer to use an ordinary 

 heavy hobnail boot large enough to allow of several 

 pairs of coarse, thick, warm stockings, these, with 

 two or three pairs of wooUen drawers make a very 

 comfortable arrangement and are far less expen- 

 sive than regular waders. I suggest several pairs 

 of fairly thin drawers, as they are more readily dried 

 than one very thick pair.
