1t is SO. And there appears 20 be
ground for the statement that within
few years Buffalo Bills grave will
be the most-visited grave In the world
This Is the way Of It: The city and
county Of Denver have established the
Denver Mountain parks, lying between
the city and the peaks Of the CONT

the cost has been SAT-, $50; there are
90 miles Of roads. Lookout Mountain

parks. The main automobile road, Of

tain, and Is easily reached by road
that turns out at the Golden reservoir
on the summit. Close by the grave
the city has established a Buffalo Bill
museum. In the summer OF 1921 ap-
proximately $4,000 visitors entered
the gates Of the Denver Mountain
parks. OF these visitors about one
quarter was from other states. Most
OF these out-of-the-state visitors
stopped to see the grave and the mu.
scum. So much for the present.
The tourist business Of the scenic
West Is Increasing tremendously year
by year. Denver is geographically the
gateway to this scenic West with its
twelve national parks and thirty-two
national monuments. 1t Is the starting
point OF the National Park to Park
highway. Most visitors to Denver In
the summer drive through the Denver
Mountain parks. So, as the tourists
grow IN numbers, the visitors to Buff
falo Bills grave will increase.

Automobile thieves drove off with SOL
machines, valued conservatvely at 500, :
00O, during 1920, according to the records
of the Baltimore City Police Department
and figures compiled by the Baltimore
Sun. This total is considerably less than
the toll of the thieves during 1919. In
that year 865 cars, valued at 81, 900, 900,
were stolen, the greatest loss in the city's
history.
Of the sol cars stolen last year, 399
were recovered by Headquarters Detec-
