1. A canteen, or the like, including a liquid drink container having an open top and further having a cap removably mounted on the open top;
- a bushing eccentrically mounted on said cap displaced from the center thereof;
elongated tubular means extending through said cap at a position displaced from the center of said cap, said elongated tubular means comprising a first elongated tubular member received in said bushing and extending down from said cap into the interior of said container when said cap is in place on said container, and said elongated tubular means comprising a second tubular member extending into said bushing on the upper side of said cap and coupled to said first tubular member through said bushing to form a drinking straw with said first tubular member; and
a cover rotabably mounted on said cap, said cover having an opening therein and means projecting from the internal surface thereof to engage said second tubular member to cause said second tubular member to turn and project through said opening when said cover is turned to a particular angular position with respect to said cap.

Abstract
A child'"'"'s liquid drink container in the form of a canteen which is equipped with a drinking straw. The canteen has a dome-shaped rotatable cover with a hole in one side. The cover may be rotated to a first angular position in which an internal closure member closes the hole with the straw retracted into the cover. The cover may also be rotated to a second angular position in which the closure member moves away from the hole and in which the straw is caused to project out through the hole. This enables one to drink the liquid contained in the canteen quickly and easily and without the need to remove the cover.
