colonists sailed from Winfieur early in

unique in elevation on our coast and
commanding broadly the entrance to
the Bay of Fundy and eastern ap-
proaches of Penobscot bay, with a gov
ernment coa1ing station in its rear. and
a magnificent land-locked harbor in the
upper bay, forms a strategic point of
great value for the nation to possess,
particularly as a coastal observation
station in connection with the opera
tion of lines of information of aero
planes and other aircraft and of means
of defense generally"
II Is the intention Of government agen-
cies to make this new national park a
natural museum for the preservation of
the fora and fauna of that territory and
the matchless scenery of that locality
There already has been established a
biological museum. In memory of great
Philadelphia naturalist. DR.. s. Weir
Mitchell Charles ID. Walcott, secretary
and executive Of the Smithsonian Institu-
ton. has expressed his views on the i'm
portance Of this project in a letter to the
President.
AS marking new era in national park
development. this prospect is described by
George B. Dorr Of Boston and Bar Har-
Dor. Me-, who represented the trustees, as
follows.

Teemed With Bird Life.

When America was discovered Maine
was the habitat of myriad land and
water birds. But a pitiable remnant of
the multitude of fowls of the air"
which Champlain beheld are there to-
day, but to conserve these is one of
the chief aims of the park just estab-
lished
The opinion of DR.. Eliot as prime
mover in this great eastern national
park project is thus expressed:
The government of the United
States. by setting aside as a national
monument this large area on this PIC
turesque and unique island, is helping
to consecrate for all time to the i'm
provement of the human environrnent
one of the most beautiful and interest
ing regions in the whole country in so
doing it is taking appropriate part in
resisting and overcoming the destruc-
tive influences on modern civilization
of urban life and the factory system.
1t is just and highly expedient that
the beneicent conservation powers OF
the national government should now
be .exerted in the east, where manu-
featuring industries occupy the major
portion of the population and the de-
structive effects of city life have long
been manifest"

# from many sources and especially from his explorations In the country itself He spoke of Cermany's desire to obtain this territory, so rich in min- erals of which Germany has a scarcity. and in agricultural wealth. Morocco. Northern France would be quite to her liking. Rome also coveted Northern Africa long ago. He described the harbor and the oity of Carthage as 1t looked in that far off time, 200 B. C., when the Roman Cato first visited 1t to study its water system and other meth ods and carried back to Rome the three hgs which changed the course of history.
 The CartIaaginians were not good soldiers. They were too busy making money. They were a nation of traders. They made finer linen than any that is made today. After they saw the need of defense, they built three walls around their city and hired soldiers. But the Romans were better prepared and Carthage was taken. Rome kept 15,000 soldiers in Africa in order ot where for the transportation of the Roman legions. None of the towns were fortified, but depended on the legions coming to uleir defense.
 Agriculture fourished and great quantities of oil and wheat were sent
 
 great deal of oil as tribute, instead o1 being destroyed. Great aqueducts were built which brought water miles away from the mountain springs and each city had it's own public buildings and sewer system. Greek art was intro duced everywhere.
