On the morning when the writer and her family departed for a sum- mer of auto rambling, an intimate and lovable neighbor invited them for a farewell breakfast. As they sat con- suming innumerable griddlecakes and golden maple syrup the guest thought "of the waiting car with it§ compact : gauipment and casually remarked; Before we ledve, you must see our ear all packed for thé "This the | cook 'stove, The family camp 'y instead | small black box, consisting of. two +, and an hed cylindrical can' of gasoline, not to mention the oven which fits it, 1s an enormous comfort, although one that may be joyously dispensed with as this camp- er can testify after successfully cook- ing ®ll one summer over a gypsy fire with crane and 'pot hooks cut from the immediate thicket..

For 'a fraction of a second the enthusiast 'sas nonplused, but politeness re- strained her from boasting of the vir tupes of the pack. 'An idea of its com- fortable simplicity, however, may be gained when it is said that from the time the family gets up in the morn: ing until the car is packed--a period which includes washing, dressing, Cooking and eating a hearty break- fast, washing dishes and packing the equipment on thé car, all without un- due haste--is just two hours quisiti and- E +1 These wanderérs carry a 0x9 army officers tent, with fly, whieh was picked up secondhand at an army store for $18. Experience of more than one summer's tenting has con- vinced them that this was a wise _cholce. It hag stood firm and whole in a most violent storm when a néfgh! bor's expensive automobile tent was badly' torn. ' Among other qualities it has also the distinct advantage that during the heat of the day the sides may be clewed up. The tent, thus converted into a double awnibg;' af- fords a delightfully cool ghelter un- 'der which the camping family may sit, comfortably protected from the blazing sun. Many people carry folding camp beds, but this party of wanderers chooses to eliminate these as things of no essential comfort, and just so many objects to be cared for and oc | cupy valuable space. It is surprising how completely comfortable - the ground is after 'the second night out. For sleeping on the ground, a water- proof poncho, as protection against ground dampness, is necessary. Over this poncho should be spread an-all-, wool army blanket for warmth. Then, clad in allswool night clothes, the pil- giims may crawl into én Australian wool sleeping bag (made from the di- rections which can be found in a cir cular issued by the Appalachian Mountain Club, § Joy Street, Boston), and be sure of sleeping 12 hours. The Food Question. +" A folding camp table and collaps-, {ble 'chairs, however, are considered indispensable to camp comfort and convenience even by the writer,» who 1s, fond + 'of eliminating.

Appropriate Clothes. To say that a large part of the suc- cess of a summer's outing depends on clothes seems a ridiculous state- ment but try only a week out and test the truth of the assertion. The feminine contingent of the family {force finds that emancipation from skirts relieves her from awkwardness in 'climbing fences . and jumping brooks. Two pairs of khaki or dark gray wool knickers with one all-woo shirt and two silk ones to match the trousers are, on the whole, the most "satisfactory kind of clothes for either man or woman. Silk and woblen ma- terials are the most comfortable and, , too, the most easily lgundered in 'any friendly wayside brook by which 'one may chance to pitch one's tent, These, with raincoat, hat and -rub- (bers, provide a most comfortable out- 'fit for the summer.

I. THE CRIME, 11:1-26. The time referred to in verse 1, "after the year was expired," or Tat the return of the year," must have been the spring time. After the cold and wet weather of the winter was rast, the army under Joab went out to war with the Ammonites, east of Jordan, and besieged: Rabbah, their capital city. bd The name of Bathsheba "is given somewhat diffeently in 1 Chron. 8:5. She is famous in the later history as the 'mother of Selomon, Uriah, her husband, was one of David's select company of thirty honorable and valiant men, named in chap. 23, ' His character/appaers in this story as that of a brave and loyal soldier, stead- fastly true to his comrades, his com- mander and his military duty.

For. the reference 'to Abinfelech, who was killed by a millstone thrown upon his head from a city wall, see Ju , chap. 9. - The comment significant -- "But "the thing that David had done displeased the Lord." Compare Psalm 51:4. II. THE REBUKE, 1211-14," The Lord sent Nathan to David. ot cnee only but many times did the Lord send a prophet to rebuke a king for wrong-doing. See 1 Sam, 13:13, 14; 15:16:31; 1 Kings 21:17:29. Na- than tells the king the story, which is in reality a parable, of the poor man and his one owe lamb. David, sup- sirg the story to be literally true, es very angry and declares that the man that hath done this thing shall surely die. The answer of Na- than is swift and fearless, "Thou art tha man." God had done great things for David, or which the p re- minds kim. The reference to his mas- tes wives does not imply that he had actually taken any of Saul's wives in marriage, but only that as king and as Saul's successor he had the right to do according to the custom of the tine. Nathan does not spare David in his indictment. "Thou hast killed the children of Ammon." He the murderer, of his crime is that the swerd shall never depart from his house. The word of the prophet was fulfilled in the murder of -Amnon (13:28), the rebellion and death of 'Absalom (18: 14), 'and the execution of jah (1 Kings 2:25). 9 3 David's repentance under the scath- ing denunciation of his friend and 1 was doubtedly sincere, alone She--It makes me wild at." ; LE "IA broken to be glared |, it wins Nathan's assurance of God' forgiving grace, "Tha Lord also hath put away thy sin."
