Those who love Nature can new
err be dull. They may have other
temptations, but at least they will
run no risk of being beguiled, by
ennui, idleness or want of occu-
patton, ito buy the merry mad
ness of an hour with the long
pentinence of after-time."

that drainage of stocks from this

therefore that no further sales Of

This procedure, Ickes' aides
said, was taken under the CO.
