rp J nf TAD a April 24, 1926 WINNETKA TALK 41 TELL MOTOR CAMPERS | WHAT TO EAT, WEAR -- | Homelike Breakfasts Easy to Prepare; Garments of Wool | Best Protection | The question, "What shall we eat, | and what shall we wear, on our camp- | ing trip?" is answered in a bulletin is- | sued by the touring bureau of the Chi- cago Motor club. "The motor camper | who subsists on a diet of canned, pow- dered and dehydrated foods, is not aware of the latest developments in camping" says the bulletin. "The camper has cereal, grape fruit, toast and coffee for breakkfast at home, why not have the same breakfast while hit ting the gypsy trail? The cream for breakkfast comes out of the refrigera- tor basket, the butter comes from this same basket, or from the tonneau or runningboard ice box. As for toast, nothing is easier to prepare when the camper is equipped with a collapsible camp stove. : "Campers now go equipped not only with ice chests, but with kitchen cabi- nets as well. The portable kitchen cabinets contain a score of compart- ments where salt, pepper, mustard, cof- fee, tea, spices, and various condiments may be carried. Pots, pans, and ket- tles may also be carried in the portable cabinet. "The matter of proper clothing is as important as proper food. Those who can should wear wool next to the skin at all seasons, for wool is the surest protection from every whim of the elements, and it is not uncomfortable in warm weather, in fact the contrary is true. Silk stockings and cotton un- derwear have spoiled as many ecamp- ing trips as uncomfortable beds. A sixty per cent wool garment is the sensible thing to wear in summer, for the wool insulates the skin against in- tense heat and also against the sudden chill that comes on after the sun has gone down in high altitude camping.

The Murine Company Nept. 33, Chicago URINE, EYES Health Leader Declares ouse More Than Shelter | Dr. Bundesen, in a recent issue of | "Chicago's Health" says that the pro- gress of mankind is attested by his manner of abode. From the hole or | cave in the earth of the primitive man {to the well equipped, modern homes of today there may be read a history of radual improvement in the manner of living, and a corresponding increase in healthful advantages. Man has found that sunshine and fresh air and living space are as essential to health as protection from the wind, rain and snow. Therefore, he makes the attempt to provide himself with such housing facilities as will not only protect against inclement weather, but will also admit a maximum of the health-giving agencies of nature. "Today housing is more than merely providing shelter for human beings; it means airy, sunshiny rooms where children may play in safety; it means facilities for sleeping out-of-doors and a cheerful, wholesome environment for the entire family," says Dr. Bundesen. "Chicago stands abreast of the large cities of the world in housing improve- ment, yet the problem of proper hous- ing still remains in a measure unsolved and will so remain as long as property values are regarded as greater than health values," the = Commissioner states.

There were no model plants such as this to change soiled and grimy draperies, pillows, cushions, bed covers, blankets, portieres, table scarfs, lamp shades and other household fabrics into things of beauty again. House cleaning time then meant a week of drudgery for the housekeeper. Now it means sending all your finest fabrics to the clean- ers and merely overseeing the work of the scrub woman. That is why homes are far sweeter today than when "Home, Sweet Home" first played upon the heart strings of home-loving Americans. The Riviera Way of cleaning is correct in every detail--done in the largest and most complete cleaning plant on North Shore, assuring you perfectly sterile hangings. floor coverings and other household fabrics. delivery trucks bring this service to your door, wher- ever you live.
