SYLVAN BEAUTY SPOT
 BEING DEVELOPED FOR
 GENERAL ENJOYMENT

Except to those who have the privilege of driving out Stewards 's delightful highway to the north, IL IS not perhaps generally known that private estate is being converted into what will eventually become Glen Echo retreat or an Idle Wild semi-public playground for Sew ard citizens and far-aWay visit ors in a setting of sylvan beauty that only this portion of Alas ka affords. 1t is on the estate of H W. Hoben between Miles 3 and from the city, directly adjoining the highway, just the right distance for an automo- bile jump or pleasant walk for picnic enthusiasts or lovers of Nature who would seek com munion with her visible forms.
 The work has been going for ward as MT. Hoben's plans de- Veloped and in another season the place will be an extraordi-. narily lovely one. A natural glen with two lively mountain streams is being cleared. On one side a miniature lake has been formed. This side now has rustic entrance with an attrac- tive fence which has been nec- esSary to keep out the wild crea- lures that have bee heating tree plantings as fast as they were put in One of the streams has also been bulkheaded of to straighten it's course and to pre- vent overflowing. Around the lake another fence will be put up to keep the beavers which MT. Hoben will introduce there. A sylvan walk encompasses the entire glen around the steep side of the mountain.
 On the east side of the road the smaller trees and shrubbery are being cleared out over an acre or two, each side of this clearing also being traversed by 2 stream.
 This will make a delightful open grove for picnic parties or childrens' outings. A large bar becue stove will be set up and
