according to word received recently
from Washington by the forest SER
vice. Added acreage extends the
present boundaries on both the east
and west sides, making the total
area 72,440 acres.
Goat Rocks is located about half
way between MT. Adams and Mt.
Rainier, in one of the widest end
most spectacular sections Of the
Cascade range. It marks the south
ernmost range of mountain goats in
the Cascade district, according to
the forest service, and is outstand-
ing for it's rugged peaks, it's exquis-
lite mountain meadows, it's lakes and
streams Astounding with trout, and
other features which attract mount
aineers and wilderness lovers.
Favorite Base
Snowgrass flat, an open Alpine
park west of the peaks, at 5000 to
$500 elevation, is a favorite base of
mountain climbing expenditions,
according to the forest service. The
views from points in this territory,
observers state, are not surpassed
anywhere in the northwest, and ex-
perienced botanists remark that the
mountain flora in the area are found
in superlative beauty and profusion.
The designation of this addition to
Goat Rocks Primitive area is in line
with the forest service policy which
selects certain outstanding districts
to be preserved as nearly as possible
in their natural state. No roads or
tourists concessions will be develop
ed in these areas, although trails
and simple shelters are permitted,
say forest officials.
In Washington other similar dedi-
cations are the Olympic Primitive
area which includes $4,000 acres in
the high Olympics and the North
Cascade Primitive area which en-
braces 100000 acres in the Cascade
range just south of the Canadian
border.
The Goat Rocks lie at the head
of the Clear Fork of the CoWlitz,
Cispus and the Teton rivers and
may he reached most easily from
Yakima on the east, or by way OF
the Cowlitz and Cispus river roads
to Packwood and Chambers lakes
on the west. There are no roads into
the area itself.

Tribute To State
Written By Meier
Seattle Attorney Lauds Washing
toms Resources And
Opportunities

Penned in tribute to the state Of
washington, it's resources and OPP
portunities, copies of 1.-THE State of
Washingtoh-An Appreciation" are
being distributed by Walter F. Meier,
the author, well-known Seattle at
tcrney.
Mr.. Meier explains that the tri-
butte was written because of an alb
.sence Of suitable appreciation of
the state which could be framed and
displayed in school rooms and other
public or semi public places. Schools
or civic organizations wishing copies
for framing and display may secure
them free of charge from Mr.. Meier,
Northern Life Tower, Seattle. It
follows:
IT love the State of Washington.
Named in honor of the Father Of
our Country, it's people are striving
to emulate his unselfish example,
and be first in war for the right,
first in righteous peace, and unfail-
ingly constant in, patriotic devotion.
AS if in preparation for the COM
ing of a people who would keep
these ideals ever green in their
minds, God clothed our mountains
and blest our valleys with the ma
jestic fir, the featherly hemlock, the
stately spruce, the fragrant cedar,
and the whispering pine. so it is
that ours has become known as the
Evergreen state of the Union.
Mature has provided for us har-
bors that are unsurpassed. Upon
Ii our inland seas assemble the ships
of the world, bringing to us the silks
and spices of the Orient, the furs
and gold from Alaska, the piscator
Fial riches of the sea, and whatever
makes for the wealth and happiness
of the human race. Away from our
shores are borne lumber from our
mills, golden grain from our broad
plains and undulating lands, luscious
fruits from our heavily laden Or
chards, precious metals Wrested
from the mountains, and coal from
our inexhaustible mines.
Railroad and highway facilities,
communicating rivers, and lakes
that are linked with the sea, have
combined with the natural resources
of the state in designating those
points at which have been builded
some of the most beautiful and en-
terprising cities of the world. Their
broad and clean streets, their we'll
built and artistic homes, their spac-
ious and restful parks, their indus
trial and commercial facilities, al!
have made for pleasant surround
ings, for contentment and happiness
of their inhabitants, and for the
progress of their DEVELOPMENT.
Nor is the state lacking in those
features that contribute to the edu-

cation and culture of it's people. Ev-

cation and culture of it's people. Ev-
cry city and hamlet has its library,
well stocked with the best literary
productions of all the ages. The
public has been almost prodigal in
the development of it's educational
system. The most modernly equip
ped school buildings house our
youth, as they seek to master the
rudimentS of an education under
the guidance of Well-trained, pa
tient and broad-mided corps of
teachers. The doors of our normal
schools, colleges and universities,
swing wide TO those who seek TO
qualify themselves in the more adj
vanced fields of education, as well as
for professional careers. Churches
and Bible schools testify to the God
fearing people who constitute our
citizenry, and to the advancement
of thought for human welfare and
happiness.
'Ours is a realm without extremes.
Here the breath of winter is temper
ed by the soft, moist breezes from
the Pacific. No hail or dust storms,
no destructive cyclones, lay waste
our fertile fields. No hot and
whitening winds scorch the vegeta-
ton and destroy the ever-present
promise of bountiful harvest. No
earthquakes, no devastating tidal
waves, vex and chastise our people.
AS the unselfish bee stores up for
mankind her sweetest nectar, gath
cred from the flowers of the mead
oW, so kind Nature has stored up
here for us her richest balsam, gath
erred from every land and the sea
All about us is the visible evidence
that here the Creator has restored
once more to mankind the elements
of Eden.
I'm natural beauty, the State OF
Washington is rot excelled by any
spot in the world. Where will you
find such a combination and wealth
of loveliness? Here are the plains
and the rolling hills; the mountains
tilnber-clad and snow-capped; man.
fold arms and inlets of the sea;
countless lakes of indigo blue; GOLD.
en- fields of grain, as far as the eye
can reach; orchards, with Their
white and tinted blossoms, the
harbingers of their tempting fruits;
the primeval forest; winding rivers
and waterfalls that bear kinship to
Niagara. Above all this display OF
the richest handiwork of Nature
rises the majestic and lordy "Moun-
tain That Was God," towering as a
guardian Waterman, but with a
friendly invitation for all to come to
the land of the rhododendron, there
to dwell under its protecting care
in a world that is uneXcelled in op-
portunity and fortune among
people who are thankful for the
favors with which they are blest.

Where the Red Man used to roam,
1t was his happy hunting ground
1t was his native home.
He was free once, as the eagles that
soar across the blue.
And he loved this little valley, where
the deer played, and the moose.
He was Monarch of the Forest, and
he loved the rocks and rills.
The Great Spirit made him son of
the mighty hills.
Here he built his sturdy .wigWam,
Here he loved a pretty squaw,
Here he reared his sweet papooses,
Here the Redman knew no law.
Now the Red Mans peace is broken,
And he sadly pines each day,
He has lost his home and the battle,
Lost his all in every way,
Now he shoulders palefaced burdens,
And his steps are getting slow.
Builds his home of rock and lumber
AS they taught him long ago.
He has parked here with the pale
face
And has smoked the pipe of peace.
Here they'll henceforth be as broth
erS
Until turmoils forever cease.
