THE LANCASTER ELM, THE LARGEST IN MASSACHUSETTS 



Several of our States already are pointing the way that all of them are certain to travel 

 in the future. Mountain tops, historic sites, battlefields, and other places of scenic and 

 historic interest are being acquired by the State and reserved for the public. 



Norway and Sweden, and European 

 Russia, excepting the provinces of Arch- 

 angel and Perm. 



PICTURESQUE AND HISTORIC NEW 

 ENGLAND 



Boston — with its rich history of Co- 

 lonial days, its brave leadership of Revo- 

 lutionary times, its appreciation of cul- 

 ture in the years when our people were 

 so deeply absorbed in the problem of 

 conquering the wilderness and building a 

 nation — takes on a new meaning when 

 one has visited its Commons, passed in 

 and out of the portals of Faneuil Hall, 

 made a pilgrimage to its old churches 

 and the burying ground where lie the 

 ashes of Hancock, Adams, and Paul 

 Revere. 



Already more than 50,000 people an- 

 nually journey to the town of Plymouth 

 to pay reverent homage to the memory of 

 the Mayflower. Plymouth Rock is now 

 appropriately cared for. On the hill near 

 by rises a beautiful monument, which the 

 nation has erected to the memory of those 

 who risked their all to come to America 

 in that pilgrim craft. It is said that the 

 splendid statue of Faith which crowns 

 this monument, and which is 40 feet high, 

 is the largest stone figure in the world. 



Plymouth Rock can never mean as 

 much to the American who has not seen 

 it as it does to him who has stood on 

 Plymouth's sacred soil and felt the thrill 

 of the spirit of those who fashioned here 

 a cradle of modern liberty. 



A hundred and one delightful and rest-
