Mrs. B. T. Stoker, OF Lovelocl;
Chairman of National Parks and Ma

of Conservation, is planning on car
rying out the following excellenf
ideas: Take each sounty in the State
and write to some active club woman
or some person who is public spirited
and get names OF the places in that
county which have scenic beauty and
are available for camping. Get com
plete description, roads leading to
etc, and, if possible, pictures. Then
compile all this data in pamphlet form
and we might call it Seeing Nevada
First In this way we will have
something more tangible to work on
that the majority of us are ignorant
of, and we could pick out mos
likely place for national park, ge'
the work started, and by the neXl
legislature we will be able to get ;
good appropriation to carry it on
Nevada has never been consider il
any other light than place to make
money, and it is time we were be
ginning to put back something tor
what we have taken This pamphlet
would be great advertising medium.
