PARK
SERVICE HAVING
ARD ANNIVERSARY
Public Invited to See Only Sea-
shore Recreafional Area
This Week

On August 25, 1916, 43 years
ago, the National Park Service was
created by an Act Of Congress AT
that time (1916) there were already
Is National Parks and rs National
Monuments, with a total of 4,751,-
992 acres. Today, the National
Park Service administers 1S2 areas
of various types, with total acreage
approximating 24,000,000.
While some of this incease in
numbers and acreage is due to the
establishment of new Parks, since
1916, such as Cape Hatteras Ma
tional Seashore Recreational Area
1889, and, Fort Raleigh National
Historic Site (1941), much OF the
increase has come through the con-
solidation of related Federal areas
under single bureau, the National
Park Service, United States De-
partment of the Interior. A Presi-
Dental Order of August 10, 1888
resulted in this central plan for the
management, maintenance, an
protection of all Parks by the
agency of Government most close
ly related to and associated with
the Parks.
The National Park idea as such
traces its origin to 1870 and the
Yellowstone Country. However,
prior to 1870, reservations were set
aside for public use. Hot Springs
and Yosemite, now National Parks.
were first set apart as reservations
in 1882 and 1864, respectively. In
1870, an exploring expedition into
the Yellowstone country first sug-
gested that this unusual area be set
apart as a National Park, for the
benefit of all the people. Two years
later (1S72- the Park was estab-
lished.
A 10-year program, aimed at
maximum conservation and devel-
opment of the National Park areas,
was initiated in 1856. BY l9bo-
the Golden Anniversary of the Ma
tional Park Service-the MISSION
&C Program will result in many i'm
provements in the facilities and
services offered the visitor to this
unusual group of scenic, recreation
al, historical, and archaeological
parks.
"Cape Hatteras National Sea-
shore Recreational Area takes
pleasure in welcoming all to the
first and only National Seashore
Recreational Area, on the 4Srd An
niversary of the establishment of
the National Park Service, May you
have pleasant visit" says Robert

Designer Clare Potter feels
that communities ought to
give out a fashion handbook
to new arrivals.
This would do away with
the immediate branding of a
woman as dressing too gaud-
lily. Women coming from other
communities would certainly
appreciate it, she thinks. A
lot of hurt feelings would also
be alleviated.
