I 425 FIFTH AVE.,(at 38th St.,) N.Y. I 
safely in time, even if you have a mile 
or so to drift. 
In river travel, the banks are near 
and if you stick to the canoe no eddy 
can pull you under. As a matter of 
fact upsets are extremely infrequent in 
canoe travel. I have yet to have my 
first one in over thirty years’ of canoeing 
in river trips, and in my sailing canoes 
I have but three upsets in all that time 
to record. 
Here are a few canoe cruising wrinkles 
that we have found worth-while know- 
ing during our many long canoe cruises, 
aggregating, I should say, several thou- 
sand miles of inland waters: In the first 
place, a sort of crate in which to stow 
all manner of kitchen duffle is wanted. 
It makes a central load, around which 
the duffle bags may be stowed, and is 
carried with a woven webbing harness. 
We found such a crate in the light, 
strong, maple strip container used by 
the groceryman. The strips are pinned 
together at the corners by a wre pin, 
and it is light and strong and about 
12 X 14 X 20 inches in size. It is shown 
in our illustrations, hung from a cross- 
pole by marline cordage, so as to make 
it ant and squirrel-proof. Alongside it 
is the aluminum reflector baker, which, 
with its bread-board, goes in a canvas 
bag. This will cook biscuits or cornbread 
for a party of six easily. With it hangs 
the ordinary kerosene lantern, which is 
all right for canoe cruising, as it stows 
upright under the turn of the bow gun- 
wale where it cannot easily be upset. 
The extra oil for it is carried in a can 
with screw top, for kerosene, once let 
get abroad, will spoil everything it 
touches. However, for a long, steady 
camp light, never getting out of order, 
the plain lantern is welcome as a canoe 
cruise accessory. 
F or light summer camping, the plain 
tarp, say 9x12 feet, is one of the 
lightest and best shelters. It can 
be rigged in a variety of ways ashore, 
as shown, or the canoe can be lashed 
to two trees on its side and the tarp 
stretched over it and guyed out in front, 
with a center pole in the fi’ont hem hold- 
ing it up like a peak. The lower side 
of the canoe makes a fine shelf on which 
to arrange all the kitchen outfit, and 
there is plenty of room under it to build 
a fire and cook when it rains. A stake 
table, made of the crate inverted over 
four stakes, is mighty handy to put the 
bread board on, and later to set out the 
meal on. There is a canoe suit-case, 
made by camp outfitters of lisfht, strong 
wood, with gasket edges so it is water- 
tight, that comes in very handy here. 
In it are carried all the kitchen gadgets, 
and it is opened out, bottom side up, 
on the stakes, making a table 28 x 24 
inches, w’hich the cookee more than ap- 
preciates ! 
In any form of tarp camp, special pro- 
vision must be made for insects. Even 
in Middle State waters the mosquitoes 
are bad while the Adirondacks and 
Northern waters are Humming with pun- 
kies, black flies and a dozen other pests. 
We find that a simple square of fine 
muslin or cheese cloth, four feet on a 
side, is the way to beat them out. This 
is gathered into a pucker in the center.
