Discoverers of a New World 
F OR several years these famous men, Mr. John Burroughs, Mr. Henry Ford, 
Mr. H. S. Firestone, and Mr. Thomas A. Edison, have always set aside 
a definite time to take a camping trip to the great outdoors to get close to 
Nature, and forget their business worries. 
Nature is one of the subjects that fascinates 
everyone — yet the average person knows little 
or nothing about it. The knowledge of any 
big, vital subject makes it a precious possession. 
The country about you would be far more in- 
teresting if you had a knowledge of the living 
wild things: could know the birds by name, 
their habits, their peculiarities; for all the 
species are different. Many of the birds are 
rapidly becoming extinct, and it is a duty as 
well as a joy to know them. A full knowl- 
edge of the wild flowers that you see in your 
walks is an accomplishment more than worth 
while. The same is true of the trees — while 
every species of little animal and insect and 
butterfly lives a life full of wonderful secrets. 
You can gain an intimate knowledge of the 
tens of thousands of interesting subjects, and 
you will enjoy the greatest pleasure in learn- 
ing about them. The children will read the 
volumes with pleasure too — they are so delight- 
fully written.
