Long, patient ageing in

To tho maioritvof the-prospective

vacations in the irrent outdoors there
exists little or no distinction between

tho two is: ";. ,
The national parks nrci mninlaincd

when tho hand of ninn has eradicat
ed nil frontiers. For this reason noth
ing is allowed to be disturbed and
birds nnd animajs f.nd safe sanc

strictly muintaincd. ...
The national forests, on the other
hand, are muintnined ns nn oconomio
asset. . Timber is cut nnd herds ernj-'t.
cd. Campers arc nt liberty to como
and go ns tliev plonsc without restric
tion, nnd tho huntsman and nnirler
with few cxcciitions is reouired onlv
