PARK COMMISSIONERS’ REPORT, 
Even in the winter season, the woods offer attractions 
to many. Snow shoe trips are indulged in and enthusiasts in 
that line find most healthful recreation in these same wooodlands 
when the snow hangs heavily on the hemlocks. The cold, brisk 
weather gives a glow to the cheek and a sparkle to the eye that 
any one might envv. Thus do we see that mother nature is 
ready at all seasons to welcome us her domains and of.lers many 
tempting inducements that no form of art iff cal pleasure, how¬ 
ever costly can give. And in her gifts to mankind she has 
never been more generous than she has been in our own city as 
revealed to the writer through many a pleasant hour spent in the 
study of her wonders in the Great Woods of Lynn.
