The Long Trail
1t Runs From Massachusetts State
Line to Johnson, Connecting
Highest Mountains, 210 Miles
SHOULD BE EXTENDED
From Johnson to Jay Peak and
Canada, Some 80 Odd Miles

The Long Trail is path cut
through the wilderness, along the
mountains, from the Massachusetts
state line as far north as johnson.
1t is marked with signs where it
crosses roads and other paths with
signs pointing the way and through
the forests, by blazed trees.
Hundreds of tourists from this and
other states hike over parts Of this
trail and few follow it the entire dis
lance of 210 miles, for the magnifi-
cent scenery and views that may be
had from the mountain tops along
the way.
1t touches all the highest noun
tains in Vermont except one, starting
in the south, Stratton mountain, then
Mt. Taber, with White Rocks Noun
tain, Killington Peak, Mt. Horrid,
Bread Loaf Mountain, Lincoln Noun
tain, Cancels Hump, Mt. Mansfield,
thence across Smugglers' Notch to
Sterling Mountain and down to John
son.
The Green Mountain Club, John
son people and Jay Peak enthusiasts
very much desire to have it extended
to include Belvidere and Lowell
Mountains to Jay Peak and thence to
the Canadian line.
There are shelter cabins along the
trail where mixers can rest or spend
the night, like Taft Lodge, under the
shadow of Mt. Mansfield, where there
is a care taker and also at few
other cabins.
The value of the free publicity
the Long Trail brings to Vermont,
can-not-be told. Leading magazines
and great city newspapers have told
of the glories of sun rises and sun
sets seen from these mountain tops,
in pictures and word painting-the
New York Evening Post of June 10,
1922 carried whole page of photo
graveurs pictures and descriptive
text of these scenic wonders, besides
a leading editorial extolling Vermont.
The Green Mountain Club issues a
guide book so complete with maps
and detailed information that any
person can follow the trail from
Johnson south for the entire distance
with out guide.
Will those in this county particu-
larly-in Johnson, Eden, ETC., join with
members of the Green Mountain
Club and enthusiasts in Orleans
county, in helping to extend the trail
some 30 odd miles from johnson to
Canada?
Nothing that we could do would do
more to advertise this county, 'The
Switzerland of America" than to
join with other willing nature lovers
and push the Long Trail through to
Jay Peak and beyond.
A copy of the Guide Book and
other Long Trail information can be
had by sending so cents to DR. L. ].
Paris, 324 South Union street, Bur-
lington.
Shall we put Lamoille county on
the Long Trail map?
This paper will issue an illustrated
edition telling more about the scenic
attractions of Vermont as disclosed
by the Long Trail as soon as the cuts
can be procured.

diary is commenced at Andersonville.
CHAPTER MARY begins with Nurse

father insisting on Abigail Jane The

her to speculate on the possibility of a

choice is to be between "the violinist'

Harlow convinces her that it will not be
