; .For the preservation tio primeval Groat Smoky moim-
t,iii on the Ijorder line of Tcrfticxsec and North Cnioliim1
as a national park and public playground these two states
.have raised more .'than $1,000,000 and will ask the rest of
the (country to aid them in securing the $1,000,000 balance
of the purchase price. If these virgin forests and un
mapped 'mountains can be purchased by public subscription
the federal government will maintain them and open thein,
through the' means of good loads, to the general public.11 '
Saving of the Great Smokies has inspired numerous arti
cles in recent issues of magazines and review's, one of them
describing these mountains as "the last of the eastern
. wilderness." If not made public property within tho next
few years this "last wilderness" will vanish like the othei-s
.before the onslaughts of the lumberman's nxe.
t Until about 10 years ago the Great Smokies wore vir
tually unknown. Within the black depths of its -forests '
there are gulfs aiid gorges uevcr visited by man. Even the I

As a national park the Groat Smokies are destined to
become as famous and popular as the Yellowstone, Yosomite
"lid other great national reservations. The east now has
but one national park, U-tfayotto national park on Mt. Des
sert Island (iff the coast of Maine, but its park system will
rival that of the west with the addition of the proposed
Shenandoah park in the lilue Kidge mountains of Virginia
and of the Great Smokies. . ; , -. . . ...
