For all visitors who are now ir Arizona, we can only say that to return home without visiting this grandest of all pieces of Gods handiwork would be an act that they would always regret.

 Parties holding return tickets east with stop-over privileges en route should by all means visit the Grand Canon from Flagstaff, upon their re- turn.
