need hardly enlarge upon. And as for the 
cooking outfit, the hiker does well to re¬ 
member that the various things must nest, 
one within the other, thus to eliminate 
space taking. One starts with the large 
pot, and in this goes another, of a smaller 
size, including his plates and his knife and 
fork and spoons. The salient point there¬ 
fore to remember is: see that your vari¬ 
ous cooking utensils, etc., nest one within 
the other to form as small and compact a 
body as possible. Aluminum ware is cred¬ 
itable for the fact that it is so light and 
yet so strong. Tinware is bad because it 
rusts and is not durable. Plates and cups 
are best in the enamelware sort. The en¬ 
ameled ware has always proven itself the 
leader in this respect. It is not only dur¬ 
able but washes off well and with little or 
no trouble. It is appetizingly clean in ap¬ 
pearance. 
Various parts of the provisions should 
be put up in small waterproofed and mois¬ 
ture-proof bags. This is especially true of 
the flour which should be well protected. 
If two hikers start a trip, of which this is 
the best system, the provisions should be 
split between two. Each carries half of 
all the things. This proportions it well 
and makes it convenient. Do not throw 
provisions together. Keep each sort sepa¬ 
rate and well tied up in its sacks. And as 
a caution before y.ou start out on a trip 
it should be heeded that carelessness 
should never work in. Go about making 
a meal, assembling the foods after you are 
through, etc., with the same care you ex¬ 
ercise in anything else. 
And right there let me tell you that a 
successful trip depends upon what sort of 
a fellow you have along with you. If he 
is one who will plug right along, accepting 
the gloom and the sunlight all in the same 
genial spirit—he is the right sort of a per¬ 
son. The bitter and ever-complaining 
grouch has no place on the trail. All he 
does is to spoil it for the next fellow. 
You will do better by far then to go alone. 
A good companion is hard to find, but 
there are hundreds of them everywhere, 
only too glad to hit the trail with you, 
whether by canoe or over wood trail. 
The hardest part of all is to break -away 
from, the confines of civilization. If one 
but breaks away he will find that what 
seemed impossible is the one best bet in 
tin' world!
