year as they have been during each
of the past two years, when upwards
of 400, 900 people visited them. He
pointed out that it is even more I'M
portant now than In times OF peace
that the health and vitality of the ma
tons citizenship be conserved, that
rest and recreation must materially
assist in this conservation of human
tissue and energy, and that the noun
famous regions Of the national parks
offer opportunities in abundance for
thoroughly enjoying a vacation of
long or short duration.
The Interior Department has taken
effective steps to put the parks on a
par with the best-equipped summer
resorts in the world, and already
transportation and hotel accommoda.
tions in several of them have reached
this standard. The splendid hote
system of Yellowstone park will be
supplemented this year by system o.
excellent new permanent camps, and
ten-passenger touring cars, supple
menting the ancient stage coaches
will offer high degree of comfort
and convenience In travelling througi
this great playground.
In the Yosemite a new hotel al
famous Glacier Point, with every
modern appointment, will be opened

Park, the new Paradise Inn will wei.
come its first visitors this summer
In these parks, also, new transporta-
tlon equipment will provide service OF
high order. New hotels in Rocky
Mountain park and the recently reor-
ganized transportation service In Gla-
c!er park will make the touring of
these parks on the top of the Rocky
Mountains delightful.
Road improvement under large ap-
preparations by congress, supplement
ed by the increased park revenues, Is
moving forward rapidly. Conditions
for automoblling in the parks will be
better than ever before. The depart
ment is giving special attention to the
stimulation of motoring by issuing
free automobile guide maps showing
the road systems of the larger parks
and the state highways connecting
with them. New circulars of inform
alton for all prospective visitors will
also be ready for distribution soon,
The parks are not as well known as
they ought to be, and the Interior De-
partmont is doing all it can to tell the
people about them, as well as make
them completely and conveniently ac-
cessible.
