The running board filling sta
tion has become almost a part of
the car, especially during the tour
ing season. There Is an ever in
creasing demand for. these touring
units that prove to be a friend in
need when the car runs out of
fuel or water. ' ' ' '
These sets consist of three con
tainers Jwhlsb., axe .held in a case
that is clamped to the running
board- The unit Is compact, sub
stantial and does aof detract from
the appearance! of the car. The
'three containers are painted dif
ferent colors to avoid any con
fusion regarding their contents.
' The outstanding feature of this
set Is that 'the spouts swing back
when not in. use and are fitted
into depressions in the tops of the
containers. This . operation also
closes the valve In the epout,
thereby eliminating any possible
waste. The gasoline and water
containers hold two gallons each
and the oil can carries slightly
over a gallon. ' . , i
Road Courtesy may be likened
to the air in the tires. ; It costs
nothing, yet It certainly ' does
smooth . out the bumps. Try it
and discover why.
light fw Camp.
- , , How to light the camp? , Of the
, many , types of electric, : carbide,
and gas. lamps the gas lamp that
burns, the regular automobile fuel
will best answer the "purpose for
an .all-around camp light. Electric
. lights ,may be used but the trouble
with .this sort of equipment is that
It gives a concentrated light rather
than dispensing, an, equal amount
of light throughout the camp. 7
A gasoline lantern of the Cole
man, type, seems, beet .suited for
camp use as it throws a 300 ean
dlepower light and will burn for
forty hours on a single gallon of
gasoline.'. It affords a brilliant
white light that illuminates the
entire surroundings, .enabling' the
camper to cook or read after dark.
It is a safe means of obtaining
light as it is impossible to spill
the fuel, thereby eliminating any
danger of fire should the lamp be
dropped or overturned. One fillT

ordinary caffipirig 'conditions,, and

inal carton each morning there
will be no necessity for replacing
the mantels during the entire trip.
A book 5 of ! traveler's cheques,
Issued by the bank or express com
panies is a great convenience, and
provides a safe way of carrying
money while touring.
v Vacuum Food Jars
The "preservation", of food is
most essential. For those who do
not i have an tee box"! included in
their eqipipeht, ' (a, tnermalware
jug will keep; the food' or liquids
at an even temperature. ;The gal
lon capacity is constructed on the
double Jar plain with vacuum
between the two containers. The
wide j mouth permits bulky foods
such as salads, chicken, ice cream,
etc., to be inserted and removed
with ease. It is equally efficient
for liquids and' will keep water
ice cold for a long time.
Do not pile camp goods on the
front bumper-as it will obstruct
the front of the radiator and re
tard the circulation of the water
in the cooling system. A combina
tion rear bumper and luggage car
rier may be had that will provide
protection and accommodate the
luggage as well. :
