A BEAUTY SPOT.
ty now inaccessible. ''The fewer the
drives the more beautiful the park"
is Mr.. Wirth's theory. He stated
that the roads had been built with
considerable skill in their relation to
the topography of the park section
and proposed that these road ways
be made bit safer by the addition of
protection rails along some of the
steep banks. 1t was also suggested
by Mr.. Wirth that a system of trails
should be worked out in the park,
these to be smoothed and graveled,
and then allowed to become, through
the natural growth along their edges,
an inconspicuous part of the park
scenery. Benches placed at inter-
walls along these paths would add to
the comfort of their users. The pro-
posed dam above the Ramsey Falls al
so seemed practicable to Mr.. Wirth,
his suggestion being that the water
level be established with great care in
order that there might be no future
damage or inconvenience from high
water. He also suggested an artistic
arrangement of stones in the creek it.
self in order that even small amount
of water might make an agreeable
flow. "While it is not possible to
improve upon nature, it is quite pos
sible to assist nature,"s{s Mr.. Wirth's
practical idea.
Himself an officer of many years of
service in the National Parks Asso-
citation, Mr.. Wirth spoke briefly on
the value and worth of national
parking system and also of a greater
system for Minnesota. Thus far the
North Star state is far below the park
systems of many of her neighboring
states even though the natural re-
sources of this state are much greater

than most other states of the north
west. A State Park Commissioner
for Minnesota is one of the first re-
quirements of suitable state park
system, in Mr.. Wirth's judgment and
he is advocating such legislation as
shall provide such a commission.
