i 5 2 THE ADVENTURES OF A NATURE GUIDE 



tion through the making of the Rocky Mountain 

 National Park. With the increased numbers of 

 wild-life reservations and national parks in which 

 animals are never shot at, the boys and girls of the 

 country will have an opportunity to become better 

 acquainted with all the wild animals, large and small; 

 to watch easily bears and beavers, birds and butter- 

 flies. 



These national parks are also wild flower res- 

 ervations. In them the geological wonders, the 

 forests, the wild bloom, the folk in fur and feathers 

 are protected for their higher values, for uses in 

 education, for enjoyment, for giving relaxation 

 and universal sympathy, for inspiring vision, and 

 for enriching the imagination. 



These wilderness places are Happy Hunting 

 Grounds for all and in them the nature guide has 

 supreme opportunities for useful and ennobling 

 service.
