There'i no use klddin' ourselves about the hereafter,

going to make Heaven and mist Hell he's got to start in
that direction. Believe me, I'm hunting up the traffic

War Effort Aided
Timber and minerals from
park areas have been used in
the war industries of the nation
when not obtainable on other
lands, Mr. Leavitt said. Spruce
from the Olympics for aircraft
and metals from Death Valley
were singled out as examples oi
this wartime cooperation.
The pre-war attendance of
parks which attained a peak of
22 million was reduced to less
than S per cent in 1943 because
of difficulties of transportation,
the speaker said. Use of these
recreational areas by the armed
forces is bringing attendances up
this year. .
Mr. Leavitt expressed the
opinion that the highly contro
versial Jackson Hole area is
rightly a part of the Grand Te
ton park and the effort of the
interior department to secure
these lands for recreational use
was Justified. The extension of
grazing areas in such lands has
been a policy of the park serv
ice.
For All People
In summing up the work of
the National Park Service, Lea
vitt reminded Rotarlans that
these parks are set aside as
"museum pieces for the use,
pleasure and inspiration of all
the people. He explained the
policy of the Interior department
in regard to administration of
recreational areas, in which na
tional interest must always be
the primary objective. Some of
the public has not recognized the
fundamental basic law which
applies to established recreation
al parks and monuments and
which precludes commercial ex
ploitation. Such commercial use
would defeat the aim of keeping
vacation areas in their natural

extinguish the flames. She was
taken to Sacred Heart hospital

Carloads of materials and supplies are shipped,

ports. It's a tremendous job but despite the
problems of manpower and maintenance it is
being accomplished with remarkable efficiency.
By putting the brakes on unwise personal
spending, by buying war bonds and saving
them, we can help guard against depression,
keep the wheels of industry running, and the
avenues of opportunity open for individual en
