Ono of the best things about
outdoors is tho amount of honest-to-goodness
sleeping you can cram
I into a ten-hour night. 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.
