The Country Around Washington.

With the opening of spring many
among those thousands of persons who
have come to Washington within recent
months to serve their government will
probably desire to explore the country
around the capital. 1t is q region of
great and varied beauty There is scenery
that is wild and much that is pastoral.
Generally it is the scenery which is
called wild" that makes the strongest
appeal to strangers when they see it.
There are large tracts near Washington
where only 4 few men, and those in
search of solitude, have built their
homes and where the country is so riven
by deep. dark ravines and upturned with
steep, high hills and rocky pinnacles and
cliffs, that the earth has never felt the
ciyiliZing touch of pillow. The ap-
pearanee of these regions is very much
now as it was when the Senecas, Pow
hatans, Analostans and other Indians
lived here before the coming of the
whites more than 300 years ago.
No automobile road, nor any other
kind of road, leads TO and through
these big patches of wilderness. Trails
have been worn by Washington people,
but the great majority of Washingto-
mans never stray that far off the beaten
track, and their reasons for this are nu-
merous. Many persons have no inclina-
tlon for such work as wandering through
tall, thick woods, where only an occa-
sional tramping party may be met and
where there is nothing to be seen ex-
