etc.), cooking, sleeping, sporting. Then 
put on first the things least used. Tie 
all bundles up separately, with white 
line, or from ball of heavy net twine 
(two pounds, say of this twine). Then 
tack in these bundles, and lash fast 
with the tie lines, from eyebolts in 
running board to the rings. Often, 
the backs of the front seats have rings, 
for the cloak and robe hangers. These 
hold a line firmly. 
The white line or trot line is cut to 
adequate lengths. Once around each 
way, will tie a blue denim bag and a 
square knot, with lip loop, will hold 
it. Then the bundle is laid on the 
running board bed, and a tie line goes 
under the bundle line, and perhaps 
through the drawing strings at the 
top. The bag is hauled down, drawn 
close, and lashed. 
Three knots are loading knots; I 
use a bowline, a square knot, and the 
familiar two half-hitches with a bight 
around the line. Sometimes other 
knots are useful—but each knot must 
have a perfect, sailor-knot grip. Other- 
wise, bundles will fall off, and the 
load will disintegrate into a mess. 
HEN one ties on the bundles, and 
clambers over the load to settle 
into the assigned seat, the problem of 
clothes presents itself. Knickerbockers, 
with light, strong shoes; cotton, wool, 
or linen, for the weather—and after 
the sweat of breaking camp, in light 
clothes, close-woven woolen shirts, or 
perhaps sweaters, to ride in the winds 
comprise the list. 
For wet weather, waterproofs of 
some kind, slickers or rain coats, or the 
well known waterproof  suits—but 
nothing is more uncomfortable than 
waterproofs for riding. Better put 
down the curtains on the windward 
side, and when time to clamber out to 
make camp, put on waterproofs. 
I can only make suggestions .as to 
outfit, clothes, cooking utensils, and 
‘the rest. Each car, each tourist has 
its own limitations, and whimsies. At 
least, in packing, leave ample seat 
room for each individual, stretching 
room for the legs, and floor space for 
the feet. Days are long, and comfort 
is not to be despised by those who go 
touring for fun. 
Daily routine is often what condi- 
tions make it; but the tourists may 
well consider this important phase of 
their day-to-day wanderings.
