We record with pleasure that the Senate Committee on Forest Reser vations has smaiiiinQusly agreed to report fnVbribly on Senator Pritch ard’s bill for the Appalachian Park, providing for the purchase of not more than'two million acres of land an«l appropriatinglfi^ve million dol lars. As both of our Senators are actively in favor of the bill, it seems likely that this excellent* project for a natioiial park iix; oiir beautiful western Carolina mountains may soon become actuality.. In looking over some Harp.er’s magazines of the early Fifties re cently we noticed an editorial la menting the fact that Congress had degenetated and longing fur tlie good old times of fifty years before. As ■ we had always been led to suppose that the congresses of fifty years age were something remarkable, possi bly the notions,,wp get occasionably; about Ihe degelj^ation,^ of - uohgres? may be due to closer range to them than those of the earlier days.

Pisgah they are stopped and the deer that flies thither, finds afhouse of refuge. They know the location of the park as un erringly .as the most experienced woodsman.
