Britain has been trying tc have the

THAT both of them have failed is due
not to the efforts of American drug

know of one family last summer that
started from Philadelphia June ~ and
returned September IL. They visited
Rocky Mountain. They climbed Pixies
Peak. They saw the petrified forest
on the way to Los Angeles over the
Santa Fe trail. From San Francisco
they went to the Yosemite, and thence
back home over the Lincoln highway
just about 10000 miles, camping al
ways, except when conditions were too
unfavOrable.
Conditions in this year OF 1921 and
the trend Of public opinion warrant
the prediction that 1t will be only a
few years before an American motor
gypsy will be able to start at the At
lantic coast and make the round trip
to the Pacific on good roads and camp
ing by the roadside in comfort on pub
lie ground-natiOnal, state, county,
municipal and local parks. That is
the keynote of the campaign begun
last summer at the national conference
on parks at Des Moines.
1t is shame to talk about making
money In connection with motor-gypsy-
ing and trout streams and snow-clad
peaks. but. here goes: Suppose every
one of. these 100000 gypsies who Wis
tied the national parks scattered an
average Of 500 along his route. That
means 1O0.OO0,OO0 American dollars
kept at home and put in circulation
AMI business for all sorts of people
along the road. Do little figuring
for yourself along this line, guessing
at the number of motor-gypsies there
were In addition to those who visited
the national parks.
The best thing about all is that the
people are beginning to get it through
their heads that the national parks be-
long to them. And they are begin
ming to use them. And maybe it isn't
a good thing for the people and coun-
try! Maybe it doesn't make for ac-
quaintance and mutual respect and
democracy
i saw In the Big Thompson canyon
in Rocky Mountain National park a
bunch Of several cars-different makes
from several different sections Of the
country and carrying several different
kinds of families. Well, the women
were getting lunch ready and the chill
dren were playing together and the
men were whipping the Big Thompson
close by for trout. Enough said.
This 1921 civilization Of ours is
pretty complex-maybe too complex to
be sane, safe and SOBER" Nature is

OF these about 20 per cent travel in

National Park service says i'm its 1920
annual report:
Final travel figures, reaching to-
tai of 1,05S, 455 visitors, show healthy
and substantial growth of American

has now reached a proportion where
1t must be seriously considered as an
economic factor in our national life.
Surely travel Of this proportion is not
born of merely restlessness on the

"Just as the rail lines brought people
to the parks from every state i'm the
Union and from many foreign cOun-
tries. so were motorists recorded tyav-
cling in. private cars from every state
and from Canada and Mexico. More
than half of these carried their own
supplies and camp equipment and en-
joyed their Fairgrounds in their own
way"
The plain truth of the matter is

folks at the peak of the season often
Jared better than the stay-at-a-hoteI
folks, for the simple reason that things
got decidedly damned up in August at
several of the principal parks.
Rocky Mountain, for example, had
240,O00 visitors-it's the nearest to the
travel and population center-and So
600 autos. And hundreds were turned
away for lack of hotel accommoda-
tons. OF course the motor-gypsies
weren't turned away; there's always
room for them in its 400 square miles.
This year there1l be more hotel ac-
commodatiOns-and likewise bigger
auto camps, as in all the principal ma
tional parks.
This motor-gypsying Is increasing
like an unfought forest fire. And why
not? 1t appeals so many ways.
In the first place, it's cheap. l

were having the time of their lives on
lnighty little money. One old farmer
from Nebraska put his case in a nut

for years to show 'em this country,
but couldn't stand the expense. Now
I've got car, and it's all right. Trav-

than staying at home. And a good
