 For the Red Gods call us out and we must go."
 -Kipling.
 You'll discover a new world-exper- fence new joys, if you come to Maine this summer. The list of pleasures awaiting you in the wilderness is a long one. There are so many enjoy ments that it is hard to tell which is the keenest
 You'll sleep under blankets at night, lulled by the signing of breezes through the pines; you'll be pleasant ly sun-baked in the day. The atmOs- plump and brown and content. You'll forget all the worry of city life in a short two weelzs-the average vaca- tionist's lease of freedom.
 At night the weird cry of a loon will start delightful shivers as you lie red tongues of the camp fires licking up the dark night.
 If you once experience the joys of camping in the Maine woods you'll count the days until you can get back again to enjoy this care-free life. The term camping no longer implies hunting wild animals. There was a time and not so very long ago when a man who ventured into the wilder ness to spend a holiday was consider ed a very daring person.
 Not so now-a-days. There are no physical dangers to be encountered in the woods. Even in the most remote fishing and hunting regions of Maine. it is possible to enjoy almost the same comforts and conveniences you find at most summer resort hotels. In this territory there are fully a thou sand camps-perhaps more. These range from elaborately equipped ones IV L A@r- to the humble lean-to or shelter built for a stay of a night or a week.
 This is the kind of life that enables the man and woman worn with the strife of a big city to renew vitality. The sunshine and. the open air life are better medicines than those that come from a drug store. There is more health in one good outing in the Maine woods than in all the prescrip- tions doctors ever wrote. Human beings were never intended to be shut up forever in the hot swelterfng towns.
 To the pleasure of your vacation in Maine will be added the memory of it's joys long after it has passed. You'll recall with infinitely more satisfac- tion the day you caught your first trout or shot your first moose than the day you cleaned up a few thous- and dollars in Wall Street. You'll have 0QQI0SS 1udlcTldl slOT TeIlIuISCGuCcS,
 This vast playground Of lakes and woods extends from Lake Champlain to the Atlantic seaboard. It covers 10000 square miles; 5000 streams flow through it; 1,521 lakes are concealed amid the trees.
 No other tract of country of, the same extent on the American conti- nent is so well supplied with lakes and streams.
 Here is a fish and game territory absolutely unparalleled in American. In the Maine waters are opportunities for fishing that are truly prodigal. Whether you be angler, canoeist or hunter, the lakes and woods of Maine will afford eradication for every reasonable desire
 Through this vast stretch of dense forest, broken only by the waterways, the priceless delights of outdoor life in the woods may be enjoyed to reple- tion. Many come to enjoy solitude and simple living. The means of enjoyment are endless. Exploration, for instance, is full of surprising pleas ures
 Imagine yourself in a canoe, creep ing along some orest-edged lake for miles and every now and then steal ing into some little bay where the deer fed on the grasses and the water lilies Trails, lines of blazed trees, lead through woods fragrant with wild flowers to some new lake or stream.
 This wilderness is as wildly fair as when the wigwams of the Abenakis were hidden among it's fine groves
