Of course motorists have often been, blamed unjustly. But there is no doubt that they Kave been careless on ies Etss room y for pâ€" ter in the creed of a lotd motorist. _ After all, the motorist himself is the one who stands to lose the most from the desecration of the camp and the roadside and from the spoilation of wild plant life. | & O£ Worst Offenders j ur observation in the past has a flll:t the longâ€"distance motor veler is by no means the one who uses the most damage. The picâ€" and the nomad are as a rule the worst offenders, Lacking civic pride, sense of beauty and responâ€" sibility, only force can |reach this type. Datth.ymonlqunper- gentage and if the great majority of motorists decide to hold fast to our slogan, "Be good to your country," we can look forward to making 1926 season not only a banner yu;gor the number of people who will ‘tourâ€" ing but also a banner year for clean and healthful recreation. * T Haif hewen of Sintay Are"" Represented , FIVE HUNDRED ENTER ANNUAL PURPLE MEET ey are anxious to make it three in Another evil of the trait that moâ€" tgrists must combat is the unsightly #amp site, : The camper should heed ‘a few gimple rules. He should extinâ€" guish ‘camp ° fires when breaking camp; he should burn or bury all rubâ€" bish; he should leave the camp in the same condition in wfih‘l:h he found it. There are few motorists who would not commit themselves to the obserâ€" vation of these few simple rules. And yet in actual practice thousands disâ€" regard them. This is owing to.heedâ€" lessness rather than to wanton deâ€" sire to destroy. Hence we may hope to accomplish much through educaâ€" tion. In the communities where a campaign was waged last year, fewer cars were seen loaded with the prodâ€" uct of the despoiled woods. .

Nature has provided us with so much beauty that we have taken proâ€" fusion for granted~ Today, however, we stand in danger of exterminating much beauty that in the past has conâ€" tributed to the charm of the trail. Many ‘plants and flowers will vanish from our fields unless we stay the ruthless hands of the destroyers. Holâ€" ly, dogwood, mountain laurel, and lady slippers, are fast disappearing.
