WANDERLUSTERSP[AN
ANOTHER HIKE AT NIGHT
Walk Through Rock Creek Park
Proves to Be Great
Success.

So enthusiastic were the wanderlusters
of Washington over their first night hike,
held in Rock Creek Park last evening,
that the 400 persons who made the trip
voted unanimously to have another moon
light walk next Thursday evening. The
suggestion was made during one of the
frequent halts of the party that another
night hike be made and the Idea was re-
ceived with approval.
The start is to be made from the same
point as last evening-the end of the
Mount Pleasant car line at Park road
and Mount Pleasant street-and at the
same time, 7:3O O'Clock. Patrick Joyce,
superintendent OF the big reservation,
again will lead the mixers through the
depths of the woods, although the route
is to be different.
Last nights outing was declared to be
not only one of the most successful but
also one of the most enjoyable ones yet
made by the wanderlusters. The woods
were found to be many degrees cooler
than the streets which the mixers left
behind them temporarily

Route Taken by Hikers.

Supt. Joyce greeted the walkers near
Park road and 18th street. Under his
leadership the party tramped for about
six miles, the route leading over Klingle
bridge across the creek, thence by the
old road past Klingle House, thence
through the woods, across Klingle
branch, through the meadow to Pierce
mill. From here the horse path was
followed to Broad branch, through the
woods up the hill to the south jumping
field. Here the way led along the ridge.
and finally through the woods across
Ridge road and thence to the north
jumping field.
One of the points of interest passed
before the party came back to Klingle
bridge by different route was the old
civil war battery. Included in the stops
which were made were the following:
At Joyces spring, at Pierce mill and
in the grounds of the old Killing place.
Most of the way led through deep
shadows and along narrow paths.
Plans are practically complete for
hitting the trail Sunday afternoon
Walter W. Paige is to lead this "ex-
petition" which is to start at Chevy
Chase Circle at 2:3O o'clock. The route
of this hike is to be through Bethesda
and Edgewood Addition. A large num-
Der of other points of interest will be
covered. making a walk of about seven
and half miles.
