Lyman n. HoWe'S TraValo9ue.
Did you ever hear the call of the
mountains and long to be free from
the strenuous life in region where
you could wander for untold miles
amid scenes of SURPRISING grandeur
and without a trace Of factory or
market place-a land as rugged and
fresh and unsulled as it was at the
dawn of creation and as serene as
the sunset? Did you ever see such
land mirrored in limpid lakes SO
clearly that you could not tell the re-
Election from the reality, or ramble
through deep forests Astounding with
foaming cascades and turbulent tor
rents? Congress thought you should
have this privilege and SO about hve
years. ago it set aside 1900 square
miles in northwestern Montana and
called it Glacier National park. Here

count of it's graphic pictures or the
early gold rush in California and the
wonderful influence Of a small child

types and atmosphere Of those early
, days are transferred to the MIN.

as being a source of public entertain

mould public opinion. like editorials,
