The national park movement with an army Of
enthusiasts behind it, is one of the livest causes
of the times. That is why we have established
since 1872 when the first national park in the
world, the Yellowstone, created, a system OF
nineteen national parks and thirty-fve national
monuments
Yet 1t is true beyond question that in general the
hundreds OF thousands Of yearly visitors to
beauty spots of nature thrill with emotion that
is quite apart from understanding of the scene
before them. America has the nOblest scenic mag
nicence that is easily accessible in all the world.
And among the greatest of its manifold values is
the fact that it is the record of America in its
making An appreciation of this magnifcence and
its values will add to its enjoyment.
To gain this understanding and appreciation is
Of the several motives impelling the activities
the School of Wild Life Protection and Propaga-
ton at McGregor.
The American frontier is no more Gone are
the buffalo herds that covered the great plains
Extinct is the passenger pigeon. Civilization and
wild life cannot exist together. The automobile
takes the tourist everywhere. The airplaHe means
the end Of the silent places. In few years the
American will have to go to his national parks
to the wild animal life Of his native land in its
natural surroundings. For the national park is the
one sure wild life sanctuary of earth-the and
only place where wild life is sufficiently free from
molestation TO hold its own against man and civi-
zation.
So, to protect and propagate wild life by keep
ing inviOlate the national parks and by establish
ing more national parks is another purpose exem-
plified in the American school in the area pro-
posed for the Mississippi Valley National park
This proposed national park lies in the north
east corner Of Iowa and the southwest corner of
Wisconsin. The Mississippi divides it; the Wis
consin and Yellow empty into the Mississippi
from the east and west within the boundaries
About $4,000 acres. land and water, including
1000 acres of Mississippi with islands, are under
consideration. There are 1.671 acres in the Wis
consin State park at the mouth Of the Wisconsin,
Mrs. Martha B. Mum of New York has offered
to give the 125 Iowa forming the scenic
keystone. 1t is proposed that the federal govern
ment shall purchase for park purposes about
1900 acres appraised about $224.OO0
Scenically Internationally and historically the
area is worthy of national park honors. Geo
graphically the area is just the place for ma
tional park. There is scenic national park
worthy of the name between Rocky Mountain in
Colorado and Lafayette in Maine Railroads and
transcontinental automobile highways run close
by There is river transportation Big cities sur
round the site. Fully 100000 people are within
few hours Of the area
The Mississippi Valley National park project in
ell its ramificatfOns is backed by the General Fed
GRAFTON of Women's Clubs, the Mississippi Valley
association and a long list of organizations of
large variety.

 FOR FLU"
Keep Your Liver Active, Your System Purified and Free From Colds by Taking Calotabs, the Nausealess Calomel Tablets, that are De-
 lightfrl, Safe and
 SErc.

Physicians and Druggists are advis- ing their friends to keep their systems purified and their organs in perfect working order as a protection against the return of influenza. They know that a clogged up system and a lazy liver favor colds, influenza and serious complications.
 To cut short cold overnight and to prevent serious complications take one Calotab at bedtime with swallow of water-that s all. No salts, no nausea, no griping, no sickening after effects. Next morning your cold has vanished, your liver is active, your system is puri- fled and refreshed and you are feeling fine with hearty appetite for break fast. Eat what you please-no danger.
 Calotabs are sold only in original sealed packages, price thirty-five cents. Every druggist is authorized to refund your money if you are not perfectly delighted with Calotabs.-(Adv.)
