Nothing- Is better for women to wear than the Camp Fire Girls' hiking uni form. j or blustery days the best head' gear is a stocking cap. On warmer days an ordinary visor cap with ear flaps will be found warm enough. woolen mitts are about the best cov ering for the hands. If leather gloves are worn they should fit loosely and tney must be fleece lined. In dressing for a hike one must bear In mind the production of heat by the body. The first few minutes in the open will prove the most trying. After that the working muscles will make a lot of heat. The colder the day the swifter the gait, and the greater amount of heat made. There is con slderable danger of overdressing by reason of failure to make allowance for the production of heat. The fin gers and toes may be cold even though walking has warmed the remainder of the body. A ' dozen or more deep breaths are effective in warming up cold feet. A Jury of three men J.
