Much depends on knowing how to fasten quickly, simply, and thoroughly. We give a description of some of the ties and knots most needed by the camper. They should be studied with a piece of small rope until thoroughly learned, so thoroughly that you can make them naturally, easily, and without stopping to think how they are to be made ; also, make them as they should be made, for often the slightest variation from the correct way is fatal to the security of your knot.

A watch in the woods and fields has another use, for it can be used as a compass.
