The national forests, on the other hand, are not developed in this way. Thus all travel through them is in accordance with the increased use of the outdoors as a whole As a rec- reational resource. It shows the tend- encles of the people to get out in the woods, What Is the result? One of the outstanding results of this use of the public forests has been to oblige the Government to recognize the fact that the people, who own the forests, want them as outdoor playgrounds to a large extent. The Forest Service, originally somewhat opposed to this use, of the forests, and inclined to view their business entirely as one of tree growing, protecting, and har- vesting. has had to divert a lot of its effort toward making arrange- ments to accommodate these crowds of people. The report of Col: Gree- ley, recently published, proves that the National Forest Service is be- coming more and more an agency of service to vacationists. The great change in the attitude of Forest Service toward the dutles of this branch of the Government is shown in one small sentence in the report. This says: “On forests having particularly valuable wild life resources, like the Toton forest in western Wyoming, which contains 8,900 elk and 1,200 moose, adequate provision for wild life should be one of the foremost objects ,of administration and other uses or developments subordinated to the attainment of this object.” The American people have shown that they no longer regard the na- tional forests simply as timber re- sources and grazing lands. ‘They have shown that they regard them also as national playgrounds Two Great Shoe-LeaderS In the "Hahn“ Men's Depts.
