Millions know their city parks from
everyday use, and they have been or
hope to go to their national parks, but
the phrase estate parks" is new to
them. Even most reference books will
OF these newest of public recreation
grounds.
State parks are pocket editions of
our great National Park system. They
are the stop-over places of the motor
list. They perch on barren peaks and
preserve tree-bowered lovers lanes
beside running brooks. They take in
such shrines as Lincoln's birthplace
and James Whitcomb Riley's "old
swimmin' hole" They perpetuate far
older history than that to be found in
history textbooks Starved Rock park,
Illinois, commentaries the time when
Americas inland region was a sea
when the cosmic happenings Of mil
lions of years ago deposited the shells
and precipitated the lime which
formed the magnesium layer Of this
region.
Iowa invited its citizens to an hours
auto ride from prairie land to fairy
land" In Wisconsin you can rent an
island for ten dollars a year. State
parks save the open play spaces amid
dense populations of the East and they
keep out encroaching farm lands of
the Middle West. Tip Van Wrinkle
sought surcease In skittles from
shrewish spouse, but the city man to-
day, harried by hundred worries, can
take wife and children for 48-hours'
rest to the hills where Rip retreated.
Our own parks bear evidence Of our
new governmental ideal. Originally a
park, says Noah Webster, was ian In
closed piece of ground stocked with
beasts Of the chase, held by prescrip-
ton or the kings grant" Today a
park might be defined as ian unin-
closed piece of ground stocked with
beasts, not to be chased, or killed, held
by prescription of the people for their
own use"
Nobody knows exactly how many
state parks there are in 1923. Two
years ago a survey by the. National
Park service showed that 26 states
had state parks. The movement has
taken such a hold within the last few
years that the park areas within those
states has expanded materially and
other states have embarked upon park
programs.

Hartford Set the Example.

Hartford has park which Is an
early example of the best sort of civic
publicity and also established a park
precedent. Search your memory and
see whether you have. not forgotten
most of the statistics and slogans
which greet you upon huge signboards
placed along the railway tracks by
trade bodies of many enterprising
cities. But nobody who has entered
Hartford by train, in daylight, is likely
to forget the sylvan beauty of Bush
nell park, which adjoins the station
with the tree-shaded Connecticut cap
itol building set on its central hill.
Horace Bushnell worked for five
years to persuade his neighbors to tax
themselves to buy this tract. Thus
Bushnell park Is q monument marking
the first time in history when the
people bought a tract with their own
money to be used as a public park.
Exactly opposite to the days when
feudal barons used park to keep the
public out Is the era when the essen
tial element of a park is that King
Auto and Sovereign Pedestrian must
have easy access. Colorado proclaims
that she has a motorists camp in
every town of a thousand or more
people. Iowa AYERS that she has more
camp sites per capita than any other
state.
New York, with forty reservations,
comprising nearly 100000 acres,
heads the list Of states in the extent
of her park system. Ten million peo-
pie. 1t is estimated, can reach the Pali-
sades Interstate park in two-hour
ride by auto or boat.
Nowhere are parks longer regarded
as luxuries : but in New York state
they are an additional necessity be-
cause they protect the vitality import
ant watersheds In the north of the
state. Upon this protection depends
the great industrial enterprises which
use hydro electric power.
State parks vary in size from the

HOME BREW THAWS SHAKES,
 SENDING THEM ON WARPATH
Wrath of old Apple Tree Colony Colony Aroused By Approach
 of Nlilknan.

Norwalk, Jan. l1.-Usually harm
 less black snakes and garter snakes
 when properly Tit up' on home brew are a pesky lot, declares James Byrnes. a New Canaan milkman, who also states that the women of that place are the champion snake fighters of the State of Connecticut.
 When Byrnes entered the rear yard of the home of J. H. Bogardus in Green avenue this morning to de-
 liver two quarts of milk, he was startled to see whole army of snakes come at him. There were black snakes three feet long and garter snakes six inches long. Women from neighboring yards came to his rescue. With brooms, coal shovels and rakes the attack was waged vigorously for ten minutes and then dozen or more snakes had been killed. The others retreated to hole in the bottom of an old apple tree stump.
 Curious to solve the mystery, Brynes secured an ak and cut into the stump. The secret was then re- vealed Some bottle of home brew that had gone bad had been thrown into the stump. One of these had burst and had broken several other, and the beverage, full of kick, had oozed down through the rotten wood to the nest of the dormant reptiles. The odor and imbibitions of the stuff had fired the blood of the snakes and the had sallied forth to do battle. If is estimated that there were 200 snakes in the den.
