PAGE TWELVE WO TERPTATION IN PACKING KIT Select Clothing For- All Round Use Is Advice Montreal, June 11.--What shall 1 take along on the touring trip? This is a question that is asked by virtually everyone who serious- ly engages in the pastime 'of trav- elling the highways and byways that stretch alluringly before the motor car owner, writes W. J. Voss in the Saint John Times- Globe. ; The answer to it that many give is terse; namely: "Figure your needs to an abso- lute minimum; then cut the prod- uct in half." That, of course, is too. radical, but it is taken to contain the germ of the bagic idea that what is tak- en on the touring trip should rep- resent the least possible equipment with which one can get along. It is an idea, time has proved, that many travellers forget until it is too late. They start the trip be- fore they realize that the lugpage is entirely too bulky--an enemy of convenience, comfort and good car performance and, too often, of safety. Clear Front Seat It is of utmost importance to realize that safety in touring calls for plenty of room for the driver. The more his position is restricted, the greater his fatigue. Exhaus- tion is too large a factor in safety to be ignored, so that the front seat never should be crowded with luggage or passengers to an extent that the driver cannot reach. all the controls easily and change his position from time to time. With this in mind, one may be- gin to consider the individual it- ems of touring equipment, start- ing with those that meet personal needs. Clothing, perhaps, always comes first in this matter of preparing the luggage. Here is the point at which it is very easy to err--usual- ly in the direction of taking too much. It is not simple to pre- scribe the clothing requirements of an individual tourist. Experi- ence, however, provides a general zuide by which the average person can decide for himself just what hit needs will be. Fundamentally, any article to be taken along, from footwear to headgear, should be the kind that lends itself to all-round use. For men, sport suits with knickers for driving and regular trousers for C.P.R. TIME TABLE. Effective April 29, 1929, (Standard Time) Going West a.m, Daily, a.m, Daily.

A vest takes up little room and so does a light sweater. Both should be carried against the moment when night driving becomes: the rule or one ruts into a slight.drop in tem- perature. Shirts, underwear and socks should be kept at a, minimum for there seldom is a place where laundry facilities are available for quick service. ' Nome, of these items is so expensive that it can- not be purchased along the route should it become necessary. : Caps, light felt hats, or straw hats all are suitable as headwear, with the second perhaps the best for all-round use. Whether it is raining or the sun is shining, whe- ther one is zooming along with the top down or marching into the hotel dining room, a felt hat seems to fit the -occasion. With a light raincoat besides the man is out- fitted. | For the Woman The woman motor tourist, se- lecting her outfit for the trip, ghould concentrate also upon gar- ments that conform to the sport motif, They permit of greater freedom and comfort, look better after hard - usage, and are less susceptible to the wear and tear of motor travel. Sports garb has become universally accepted dur- ing the touring season, and with two or three changes, the woman tourist may feel at her smartest. A light wrap a sweater and a rain- coat will not be amiss among the woman's luggage. With reference to hats, there is one general rule to be followed, namely, the smaller and fewer taken along the better. Toilet ar- ticles for both men and women on the tour should be kept at an ab- golute minimum. Distribution .of most favorites is so extensive that no trouble will be experienced in buying those left behind but later found to be needed. Limiting the luggage thus to es- sentials, the touring party should be able so to pack the car that all gave the smallest items can be car- ried outside the car in the trunk at the rear or in a rack on the runnig board. That is where it should be. The outfit of the car, like that of its occupants, should be kept as small as poseible. The tools need- ed for making repairs should be taken along by all means. There is nothing so disconcerting as. to need to change a tire and then to lack the tools with which to do it. The tire changing equipment, to- gether with, small wrenches and pliers that might be needed for minor adjustments - and repairs, should be kept where they will be easy to reach. Vatican's Representative Reported To Be Named Washington, D.C., June 11. -- The Washington Post yesterday said it has learned "from an infal- lible source" that' Pope Piuw XI has named Dr. Edmund A.

The experts safd communication between aircraft and ground was the simplest and most obvious ap- plication of radio as a navigation- al aid and that' the telephony sys- tem, with both one-way and two- way telephony, was the most prac- tical for United States airways. Three radio-telephone and wea- ther-broadcast . stations have been installed along established airways and by June 30, the report said, it was hoped to have 30 such sta- tions in operation These stations 'are to be used largely to give pilots weather information flight. The simplified visual radio bea- con, a newer development, the en- gineers said, had successfully de- monstrated the practicability of keeping airplanes to fixed airways. This radio beacon, transmitted from an airport, emits waves that warn the pilot when he goes too far to one side of the airway course. Marker' beacons gent out from airports to indicate definitely the exact location of the plane along a courge also were declared to be successful.

With it is its successor, a fore- runner of the eight-in-line car. The cars, the "Bullet No, 1" and the "Bullet No. 2,"' are the gifts of the Winton Motor Company and have been placed in the museum beside other automobiles of an- cient make. It was in the "Bullet No. 1" that Alexander Winton, {ts . builder, first raced along Daytona Beach in 1901 to make a record of a mile in b1 seconds. It was a far cry from the 231 miles an hour made at Daytona Beach by Major H. 0. D. Segrave of England, but the 72 miles an hour in that day of the infancy of the motor car was a noteworthy mark. The engine of the "Bullet No. 1" is a massive thing, compared with four-cylinder engines of today. Tt has a six-inch bore and a seven inéh stroke. An elaborate ofling system is a feature, and crude in the extreme beside systems used today. Sep- arate copper tubes, each controlled by a screw valve, run to each bear- ing from the oil pump, situated at the front of the motor. : The cumbersome rgdiator' hands between and below the springs, ance from the ground. The entire car is' low, with the front and rear slanting downward, as in Major Segrave's racer, but the driver sat above, exposed to the blasts. The car is believed to have been the first equipped with both internal and external brakes on the same drum, In 1902-03 Alexander Winton built the "Bullet No, 2," the "fast- est car in the world" at that time. drove it on the sands of Cape May Beach, N. J. in 1905, attaining a speed 'of nearly 106 miles an hour for a one-mile stretch. It was run in 34 seconds. The "Bullet No. 2" is belleved to have been the first eight-in-line car. In reality the motor is two four-cylinder engines coupled to- gether. It takes up half the length of the car. The engine is hung be- neath the frame and the cylinders lie horizontally. That engine, too, is enormous in comparison with the modern eigh!- cylinder automobile engine. Its bore is 5% inches and the stroke seven inches. CHICKEN THIEVING (Simcoe Reformer) Since a determined campaizn was launched by the Hon. Johu =. Martin in co-operation with the provincial police department with a view to exterminating the aboiwa- inable practice of chicken thieving, very satisfactory results have fol. lowed.
