CLARK COUNTY
FOREST PROVES
VACATION Lure
Cool Depths of State Re-
serve Fine to Idle
Away Time.

State and national forests always
have lured thousands of vacation
lists to their cool depths. Clark
County State forest, south of In
danapolis, on the Pigeon Roost route,
is one of those forests that have
proven especially popular.
The Clark County forest con-
tains 1920 acres of heavily wooded
land, much of which is second
growth hardwood. It is the largest
wooded area in Indiana. While
chiefly hardwood is found in the for
est, on the knobs is to be found
much Jersey scrub pine, the only
native pine in southeastern In
diana.
Original Pine
Here, for twenty-one years, State
botanists have conducted a series
of Investigations in the study of
trees.
The area is, for the most part,
rough and unbroken, the greatest
elevation, 1,010 feet, being reached

foot observation tower has been
erected, where tourists may obtain
a view comparable to anything in

A nursery to grow trees for plant
ing in the forest and to supply trees
at cost, to individual land owners
who wish to reforest, was started in
1919. There are about 100000
small seedlings in the nursery at
this time.
Open to Public
The State forest is open to the
public. 1t is of especial value to
people interested in forestry and in
the demonstration of cleared land.

Within few hours a new safety

The last straw, the resigning board
said, was the demand of the mayor

The king made but one request.
He wanted to see his favorite
Eddy, the little boy who was after
ward to be the present Prince OF
Wales. The wise men of medicine
conceded this might be granted
Properly coached as to his behavior
they did not see how the youngster
could possibly harm the august pa
tent.
So one fine morning the little
chap was allowed in the sick room
Bearing/in mind all the admoni-
tons that had been given him, he
tiptoed up TO the bed, kissed his
dearly beloved grandfather, fon-
died him, and for time held happy
conversation with him in whispers
AT nod from one CT the doctors
standing on the other side of the
room, the boy understood he was
now to leave.
Bending over once more to reach
his grandfather's ear, the young
prince whispered:
"And now, dear grandpa, before
I leave, may see the baby?"
The king laughed so hard he
tore all the surgical stitches loose.
