but they have not yet discovered the cause
of the sounds These sands called
barking because at times they resemble
the barking of an animal; at other times
they produce a loud humming sound which
can be heard at a considerable distance.
1t Is thought by some that the movement
of the winds over the vast sand heaps
causes a vibration of the particles just as
the movement of the winds produces sound
in the branches of trees. The native Ha-
waiians attribute these strange noises to
the lamentations of demons and evil spirits.

with all its mute mementoes of a cruel past;
of suggesting the elusive charms which

In the accomplishment of this task he is
aided materially by the illustrators. who

are in water color, n medium which some
critics have held to be the only one suited
To the Venetian atmosphere. Others are

1.-THE Yellowstone Park Is something
absolutely unique in this world. Nowhere
else in any civilized country is there to be
found such tract of veritable wonder
land, where at the same time not only the
scenery of Wilderness gut the wild crea-
lures OF the park are scrupulously pre-
served as they were. the only change be-
ing that these same wild creatures have
been SO carefully protected as to show
literally astounding tameness. This park
was created and now Is administered for
the benefit and enjoyment of the people.
The only way that the people as whole
can secure to themselves and their chill
dren the enjoyment In perpetuity of what
the Yellowstone Park has to give is by
assuming the ownership in name of the
nation, and by jeaolusly safeguarding and
preserving the scenery, the forests and
the creatures. AT present 1t is rather sim
