Those who contemplate

the beauty of the earth

f ind reserves of strength

that wil l endure as long as l ife lasts .

Who will gainsay that the parks contain the highest potentialities of national pride, national contentment, and national health? A visit inspires love of country; begets contentment; engenders pride of possession; contains the antidote for national restlessness ... He is a better citizen with a keener appreciation of the privilege of living here who has toured the national parks. - S t e p h e n M a t h e r
