President
Goes Back
to Nature
Harding Drops All Official
Cares and Spends Day View
ing Beauties of Zion
National Park.
Accompanied by Smoot

Cedar City, Utah, June 27.-Presi-
dent Harding today laid aside all
thoughts Of governmental business
and took an excursion into the wilds
OF nature, viewing the beauties and
grandeurs of Zion National park, in
the heart of the Wasatch range.
At required an all night journey
by rail to this point, and then an
automobile ride of So miles into the
wilderness Of the canyon. The trip
ws1ehot and dusty, but it was re-
of from the confined atmosphere of
the cities. and both President and
Mrs. Harding enjoyed it.
Others join Party.
The party was accompanied by
Governor and Mrs. Mabey, President
Heber Grant of the Mormon church,
and Mrs. Grant, and Senator Smoot,
whose efforts We're largely instru-
mental in having the government set
aside this great tract Of wild beauty
for a national park.
1t was s this morning when the
presidential special reached Cedar
City, and the start of the automobile
caravan was made Immediately.
The scenic beauties of the canyon
ride were wonderful and added a
spice OF variety to the Kaleidoscope
view which the president has enjoyed
on his trip. For a large part of the
way the trial was across the bed of
volcanic lake. and traces of the
once high water mark were clearly
denoted on the canyon walls.
Harding Much Cheered.
The president felt much cheered
by the reception accorded him in his
meeting at Salt Lake City Tuesday
night. The most impressive part of
his reception came at the end of his
prepared speech. when, having laid
his manuscript aside, he made an
extemporaneous appeal for the en-
Qpp4ee of the United States into some
sndeavor to stop all wars. The APP
peal made great hit with the au.
dience. which cheered him not so
much for mention of the world court
idea, as for the general expression of
desire on the part of the United
States to be helpful to the world.
