The outstanding feature of today Is the promise of the future. The ever-Increasing "National Park Army" of enthusiasts-- now an organized force of approximately 5,000,000 members of about 125 affiliated organizations-- has in ten years transformed the national park movement from a forlorn hope Into the llvest nonpel itlcal Issue of t'-.e times. The "proof of the pudding" is the National Conference on Outdoor Recreation. This was organized last summer at Washington upon the initiative of President Coolidge and held its second annual meeting a few days ago. The federal government now stands as 'guide, philosopher and friend" of the people In all phases of outdoor recreation, as well as active participant and financial supporter. The "Army," however, retains Its organization and continues to deal directly with congress--which pays attention. One result of this Is that Secretary Work of the Interior department has seen his way clear to announce a national park policy based upon three broad principles: "First, that the national parks and national moat. ents must be maintained untouched "by the inroads of modern civilization in order that unspoiled bits of native America may be preserved to be en- Joyed by future generations as well as our own; "Second, that they are set apart for the use, education, health and pleasure of all the people; "Third, that the national interest must take precedence In all decisions affecting public or private enterprise In the parks and monuments." So live an Issue Is the "National Park Movement," so manifold are Its activities and so wide are Its ramifications that It would take volumes instead of columns to cover the situation. Only outstanding features of special interest to the whole country can be touched on here, and then only In outline. There are now In the national park system nineteen units. The twentieth--Utah National park-- Sins been authorized; the'acquisition of certain ivately owned lands within Its boundaries will completely establish IL Two more national parks - Shenandoah and Great Smoky In the Appalachians-- are apparently In the making; the Sixty-ninth congress Is likely to pass upon these projects. The total attendance at the national parks and at 19 (out of 31) national monuments In the 1824 season was 1,670,908, compared with 1,493,712 for 1923--a satisfying increase in view of the fact that lust year presented many conditions unfavorable to American tourist travel. Including unemployment, forest flres and the foot-and-mouth disease In the Southwest Favorable conditions this season point to a very larg^ attendance. Rocky Moantain In Colorado--the most popular of all the national parks--led as usual; its visitors numbered 2244J11. Other figures are: Hot Springs, Arkansas (medicinal) 164,175; Mount Rainier, Washington, 161,473; Yellowstone, Wyoming, 144,168; Yosemite. California, 105,894; Grand Canyon, Arleona, 108.256. Features of this showing are: The large increase at Mount Rainier, the 1923 attendance being 123,708; the fact that Yellowstone Is showing results under an Intensive system of publicity, the 1922 attendance being only 98,223; the decrease In Yosemite's visitors from 130,046 Ib 1928. Most of the more Important national parks an now officially open to visitors. Rocky Mountain, Yosemite and Grand Canyon, are open all the year; so are Hot Springs and Piatt (Oklahoma*, medicinal) and Lafayette (Maine) and HawaiLN Glacier (Montana) and Mount Rainier open June 15; Yellowstone June IS; and Crater Lake (Oregon) and Mount McKlnley (Alaska) July 1. in most of the national parks the visitor will find improvements In roads and trails and auto camps. This Is Important, Inasmuch as approximately three-fourths of the visitors travel in their own cars and a large proportion uses camps. 1926 visitors, however, will find a vast amount of Improvement Under the National Park Highways act of 1924, authorizing the appropriation of $7,500,000 for the carrying out of a three-years' road and trail construction program,' $2,500,000 la available this season and work will be pushed. In Rocky Mountain, which has been allotted $140,500, six projects will be benefited; the Fall River Roed and the High Drive will get most of the money. The former road, which crosses the Continental Divide on the "Roof of the World" at an elevation of 11,797 feet, Is the highest automobile highway In the national park system and possibly the most scenic on earth. Glacier gets $453,000 and of this $410,000 Is to be spent on the Transmountain Road over the Continental Divide. This road is badly needed, since there is no road through the park and to get from the East Entrance to the West Entrance rail shipment of cars is necessary or a long detour by way of Helena, Mont. AH the national parks share in the appropriation. In addition the secretary of the Interior is authorized to appro** projects and made additional contracts to the extent of $1,000,000. The situation as to the proposed national parks in the Appalachians is briefly this: A commission appointed by Secretary Work reported last December approving areas In the Blue Ridge mountains of Virginia and the Great Smoky mountains of Tennessee and recommending the former as the more accessible. Several national park bills were thereupon introduced. Congress then passed a bill providing for a more complete survey of these two areas and of Mammoth Cave and its surroundings, and for recommendations by the secretary as to boundaries. Appropriation of $20,000 was made for expenses, options, etc. Secretary Work appointed a commission, which Is at work this summer. This action by congress does not commit it to the establishment of any of the three proposed parks, but would seem to Indicate its willingness to consider a departure from the previous policy of refusal to purchase land for national park pur. poses. All three areas are privately owned; the cost of each would be at least a million dollars* The existing national parks, except Lafayette (do. nated), have been created from the public domala and from the national forests. The Ecological Society of America has asked congress to establish a national park In the Glacier Bay region of southeast Alaska. An ecologist Is a sort of botanical evolutionist who wants to know how nature adapts itself to circumstances. In the Glacier Bay region there is eternal warfare between Ice and forest. A glacier overwhelms a forest A new forest springs up In the destruction left behind. In this region is the Mulr glacier, with a sea front 300 feet high and more than a mile long. It throws down fragments as big as a skyscraper and the waves rock a big steamer a mile away. Why not Mulr National park--if the ecolo< gists are granted their request? In the meantime President Coolldge has created the Glacier Bay Na* tloaal monument of nearly 2,000 square miles. The Redwoods of California, first cousins of the Big Trees, are safe from extinction, even If the . proposed Redwoods National park1" is not created. Save the Redwoods League has raised more than $750,000 for the purchase of virgin redwood groves at North and South Dyerville Fiats and Bull Creek Flat. These groves are Intended to be a part of the Humboldt State Redwood park. The groves contain many trees more than 2,000 years old, 800 feet In height and fifteen feet In diameter. President Coolidge has made a national monument of the Carlsbad Cave in the southeast corner of New Mexico, near the Texas state line. Congress had made an appropriation for the driving of a shaft into the cave; access is now by rope-andbucket through a hole in the roof. Moving pie. tures of its interior as revealed by explorers with, torches show an underground world unbelievably fantastic. The cavern seems to be In a class by Itself in extent, size of chambers and richness of ornamentation. One chamber is nearly a mite long, and approximately 600 feet wide, with a roof of un* known height. Any estimate of the extent of the cavern Is purely guesswork. The pictures* given herewith show suggestive glimpses of typical national park scenery. No. 1 Is Trick Falls in Glacier--merely one of hundreds of varying forms and sizes in the parks. Nos. 2 nnd 3 are contrasting trails; there are thousands equally attractive. These two are In Rocky Mountain. No. 4 Is a good likeness In silhouette of Director Stephen T. Mather of the national park service, a unique figure among federal officials.. He is a rich enthusiast who devotes all his time to the national parks and annually spends on them In donations many times the amount of his salary. He was appointed by Secretary Lane In the Wilson cabinet; changing administrations very properly have continued him in his post for twelve years. The pen sketch, No. 5, Is after a spirited color drawing by R. Bruce Horsfall in the Nature Magazine of that kingly big-game animal, the wapiti or American elk. It is extinct In most of its former hiibitats. There are still something like 20,000 elk In the two Yellowstone herds, but radical measures will be necessary to prevent their extermination. The winter snows drive the-elk from their summer feeding grounds in the mountains and force them beyond the park lines. Then hunters--so called slaughter them--or they starve on lands already stripped of forage by cattle and by haymakers. The movement to add enough territory to Yellowstone on the south to feed these herds Is apparently doomed to failure; the ranchers oppose It and the forest service, in Its efforts to make the national forests a competitor of the national parks. Is planning "mass recreation" In the region. Incidentally the Izaak Walton league la raising a fund of $100,000 for the purchase of lands tor the feeding of the Yellowstone elk In winter. No. 6 shows Timberline House (11,500 feet elevation) on the trail up Longs peak In Rocky Mountain. This famous shelter, familiar to the majority of the more than 1,500,000 visitors to Rocky Mountain since its establishment In 1915, figured largely in the tragedy of last January which cost the lives of Miss Agnes W. Vaile, secretary of the Denver chamber of commerce, and Herbert Sortland, caretaker of Longs Peak Inn In Tahosa valley. Miss Valle, a member of the Colorado Mountain club and one of the most noted mountaineers of the country, and Walter Klener, an experienced mountaineer ft-om Switzerland, left Timberline House at Boon, descended to Chasm lake in East gorge and climbed up the almost perpendicular 2.300-foot East Face of Longs Peak. They arrived on The Summit (14,255 feet) at 4 o'clock the next morning. Here they were beset by a storm of wind and snow. They attempted to descend the north •lope to Boulder Field. Miss Vaile became exhausted. Kiener kept on to Timberline House, where he found a rescue party. He led the way back to ]fpl8s Valle, who was found dead. In the meantime Sortland had become lost from the rescue party. Searching parties, recruited from Estes Park, did their best In vain. Miss Valle's body was recovered with difficulty. Sortland's body was not found until February 25, near Longs Peak inn. Klener lost most of his fingers and toes from the effects of freezing. The rescue parties using Timberline House nearly froze to death in the ramshackle old structure. An adequate shelter Is Imperatively needed, as more than a thousand visiters ascend Longs Peak--by the regular trail-- aach summer and there is no other shelter. Winter sports in the national parks are Increasing in popularity. Rocky Mountain, an all-year part, had visitors all winter and Its March pro- I gram attracted more than 2,000 participants and J spectators. Mount Rainier had nearly 10,000 visitors during the winter, eager for winter sportSL Sequoia and General Grant and Yosemite were lp>pular. A coming feature of the national parks Is their t&ucational use, with the aid of nature guides, museums and natural history lectures. Yosemite gets a good start with the Laura Spelman Rockefeller Memorial museum. Its cost is $70,000 and it will be opened this summer. Several of the other parks have made modest beginnings,. Japs Learn English as Matter of Course English is taught In the public schools all over Japan. Later, when t came to travel widely in the Interior, 1 often found bright schoolboys fourteen or fifteen years old who would volunteer as Interpreters, Theodore Geoffrey writes in the Saturday Evening Post. in another generation English may be*a second language for the Japanese^ even as the Dutch today are competent linguists, because the world cannot he bothered to learn Dutch. Lnglish, unless a Japanese has been educated abroad, becomes rather peculiar In Japanese mouths, for according to Japanese custom, every consonant must be followed by a vowel, and there is no "1" or "v" or "th." Thus "beer" becomes "bieru"; "glass," "gurssu," and "hotel," "hoteru." Thousands Have Kidney Trouble and Never • Suspect It : Applicants for Insurance. Often Rejected Judging from reports from drwjggfeti who ire constantly in direct touch with the public, there is one preparation that has been very successful in overcoming these conditions. The mild and healing influence of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is soon realized. It stands the highest for its remarkable record of success. An examining physician for one of the prominent Life Insurance Companies, in an interview of the subject, made the astonishing statement that one reason why bo many applicants for insurance are rejected is because kidney trouble is so common to the American people, and the large majority of those whose applications are declined do not even suspect that they have the disease. Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is on sale at all drug stores in bottles of two sizes, medium and large. However, if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sore and mention this paper. Cynical Farmers The $65,000,000 gifts of James B.

In most countries the hero of such an achievement would be Immortalized in history and song. But in China--nothing of the kind has happened, Rich and poor, learned and simple, speak of the builder of the great wall with contempt. They lose sight of the wall In contemplating the wickedness of the man who built it It is said that Hwang T1 utilised every third able-bodied man in his kingdom for the work. Millions must have been so employed by the time the task was finished, and It was not completed during the first emperor's reign. More than two thousand years ago the great wall was built, and the human agony entailed in its construction is remembered In China today. Every inch of that far-flung wall la associated with human suffering, and It hat been grimly but truthfully described as the longest cemetery on earth. Expression in Dispute According to the story back of the expression 'It's a long time between drinks," the governor of South Carolina required the return of a fugitive slave. The governor of North Carolina hesitated because of powerful friends of the fugitive. He gave banquet to his official brother. The governor of South Carolina In a speech demanded the return of the slave and ended with "What do you say?" The governor of North Carolina replied, "It's a long time between drinks." The phrase is also attributed to Judge Aedanus Burke. The hen seldom. has a grudge against the farmer she is laying for. A girl is never In love iI she knows why.
