The day of the big lumbering motor car is past and women de mand the smart, fast, easy to handle car. Overland was one of tho first companies in the automo bile world to realize this change in the buying trend. As a result the Overland Six was introduced on the market.

Hut, even the open won't put a tired man to ! sleep unless ho has a comfortable j bed to lie on. I The old idea of sleeping on the j ground was ull right when there j was no better way zut now, when you can get a cracKerjac muu folding bed that takes almost no space at all In the car, there's no reason why you shouldn't sleep like a log. You may have a camp bed, as wide and nicely sprung as your bed at home, if you choose, or a simp ler cot, tlmt is quite comfortable, or you may sleep on tho ground In genuine luxury providing you have a good mattress. The best camp mattress Is of a pneumatic type, to be Inflated with a tire pump, preferably (although a good set of lungs will do In a pinch.) Next best Is a tnntlress of kopak, or silk floss, 'which does not absorb moisture as cotton will do when placed on the ground. In addition, a good supply of heavy, soft wool blankets, for, it's quite Hkely to be agreeably cool at night, no matter what season of the year you ' go camping. All this sounds like a lot of equipment but it will roll up into surprisingly small space, and how welcome - it will be When you come, deliclously I tired, to tho end of a perfect day.
