five adults and three children in their 
teens. They had a camping outfit. They 
I decided in camp that perhaps they had 
better have another car, so some of them 
went down town and purchased a road¬ 
ster—seating three—which gave them, in 
comparison, lots of room. 
We saw a great grandfather and his 
wife going to visit “one of the boys,” 
eight hundred miles from home, in a six- 
cylinder qar purchased the previous 
week. They were stuck on a narrow 
bridge and had held up seven or eight 
cars in the early dusk, but a garage 
worker traced the difficulty in five min¬ 
utes to a grain of sand in the distrib¬ 
utor. They expected to sleep in the car 
beside the road but were gain-speeding 
by night-running. 
Obviously what serves the purpose of 
hardy young adventurers, young men 
out for a lark, will not do at all for a 
man, wife and three or four young chil¬ 
li dren; not in outfit, not in daily routine 
and not in the miles traversed. The 
most disappointed tourists I ever saw 
were a family which had expected to 
make their two hundred miles a day, but 
who found 100 miles a terrific task. The 
father was simply unspeakable in his 
oath-full worry, while the others would 
have been having the time of their lives 
but for the man’s inability to stand up 
squarely under the unexpected delays, 
S highway difficulties and hardships, which 
are not hardships except as one makes 
them so. What do people go touring 
for if it isn’t to taste again the primitive 
and meet troubles man-fashion? Wo¬ 
men and young people are better sports 
than men in this respect, and where there 
is one snifify woman there are a dozen 
snorting men. Men seem to find it harder 
to forego their comforts and accustomed 
luxuries than all the other types of hu¬ 
mans put together, girls, boys, women, 
grandmothers and the rest. And men 
lose their nerve, too. 
The toil of a trip is considerable. One 
must study the roads to drive on them 
successfully, and it may not be amiss 
to discuss the various types of highways 
in our next article.

THE BIG GAME OF 
NORTH CHINA 
(Continued from page 112) 
conspicuous white croup-disc. The tail 
is very short. The full-grown ram 
stands over 44 inches at the shoulder, 
and carries horns that range from 17 to 
\9 l / 2 inches in circumference at the base, 
and from 47 to 52 inches in length. The 
skull and horns of a specimen shot by 
the writer weighed 43 lbs., a fact which 
will give some idea of the magnificent 
trophy the head of such a sheep makes. 
This species is confined, as far as is at 
present known, to the mountains of North 
Shansi and North Chihli, though its 
presence today in the latter province is 
doubtful. Frequenting the highest rang¬ 
es and grassy uplands, this sheep is diffi- 
> cult to come at, and requires a deal of 
arduous and very careful stalking. 
Both rams and ewes are expert climbers, 
scaling the most difficult and dizzy cliffs 
with comparative ease. The Chinese

For a Fishing Trip, the UNION TRAILER Owner drives 
to the stream the evening before, and gets up bright and early, ready to haul them in.

whole equipment in a season or less. And with this perfected outfit, he can be sure 
of maximum service, at an upkeep of little more than nothing.
