King George knows the sultan. He has
had a taste of his perfidious quality. He
says of the responsibility Of Greece in this
business:
I'm the presence of the recent scenes Of
massacre and pillage. the burning of Ca
nea and the frightful anguish Of the Gre
tans exposed to and menaced by the
boundless fury of Mussulmans. our whole
country was torn with remorse for It's own
responsibility. 1t assumed last year to
persuade the Cretans to lay down their
arms, but the misfortunes which followed
forbid US again to undertake such a task.
Even had we attempted to do 1t, our voice
would have been only feeble echo and
would not have reached the Cretan people.
Is there no reminder here of the cause of
Cuoa? Have not the Cubans been harried
and their homes laid waste? Is not their
island given up to the pillage of the op-
prcssor? Were they not persuaded when In

heavier and harder to bear? And yet there

Good but Delnted Advice.

In Geneva. N. Y. is published monthly
magazine called Light and Life" de-
voted to religious topics. In the current
issre. under the headline. "a park un-
equalled by anything in the world" is
printed an extract from a book by John
Burroughs. called Wake Robin de-
soriptive of the beauties of the Rock Creek
region. The editor of Light and Life
endorses Mr.. Burroughs praise and ar
nounces that he can personally testify
to it's force. inasmuch as the Rock Creek
valley was his favorite ramble during boy
hood. He adds:
I'VE wonder the people of Washington
do not petition the National Government
to condemn that whole region for a public
park. which Mr.. Burroughs. first-rate
authority says would make park un-
equalled by anything in the world Here
is an extraordinary opportunity. and 1t
should be embraced before 1T is too late.
And all its original and primitive beauty
should be preserved. No improvement. no
clearing-up should be allowed. Washing
ton has many parks. arranged and adorned
by art But the Rock Creek park. if ma
ture is left unadorned. would be worth
more than all the rest put together. What
say the editors and people of Washing
ton?"
the editors ard people of Washington
have had their say. So has Congress.
which in 1Sb passed the act approved Sep
tember % OF that year arpropriating 81
2U.OOO for the purchase of tract of land
running from the northern boundary of the
already acquired Geological Park TO the
Maryland line and embracing the entire
width of the valley. The park thus estao-
lished includes COG acres. and that which
1t adjoins containing the national geological
gardens. comprises 16I more. SO that 1.di3
acres OF this magnificent Rock Creek re-
gion are now under the joint control Of the
District and the general government. Fur
ther comment on this anticipation of the
suggestion of the editor of Light and
Life" by the people of Washington is I'M
necessary. 1t might he added. however.
that the advice of the editor that mo i'm
provement, no clearng-up should be al
lowed" has been followed even too strictly.
for practically nothing has ever been done
since the land was purchased and partly
fenced in to enhance its natural beauties
or even TO make them accessible. But the
extraordinary opportunity" has been EN-
braced and the ex-Washingtonian who
now edits Light and Life" and who has
/ not closely followed the history of his for
mer home will undoubtedly be gratified
20 know the fact
