112 Washington Rock Climbers Take to the Water.—We commend to our readers "The River Rats Ride Again," in Up Rope for May 29, 1946. Tom Culverwell's drawings and Sam Moore's prose make us wish we had been along on that stirring boat trip down the Cacapon River last spring! There's Lois Going on in Chicago!—Chicago's Prairie Club has always sponsored a great variety of activities. The June Prairie Club Bulletin lists a special program for the club at the Adler Planetarium, a visit to Chicago's South District Filtration Plant, a square dancing party, a lecture on flowers, bike rides, and canoe trips, all in addition to the regular quota of hikes. Lean-tos Planned in George Washington Forest.—A note in Appalachian Trailway News for May tells us that extension of the A. T. lean- to chain southward from the Shenandoah National Park is assured. Rangers are planning to construct lean-tos throughout the 70-mile section of trail in the Pedlar District of the George Washington National Forest. Another item in Trailway News describes the new anhydrous foods, which should be a big help to hikers on pack trips. These semi-cooked, partially dehydrated fruits and vegetables are expected to be on the market this fall. WITH P. A. T. C. AUTHORS Wexler Writes for Appalachia.—P. A. T. C. Member Arnold Wexler contributes to the June magazine number of Appalachia an account of a rock climbing expedition to Mt. Katahdin. "Katahdin for Rock Climbing," accompanied by several photographs on which routes are traced, tells of Mr. Wexler's experiences on the Maine mountain last summer with Sterling Hendricks, Donald Hubbard, and Chuck Haworth. Frank Co-author of Forest Service Pamphlet.—In collaboration with Clifford A. Betts, P. A. T. C. Member Bernard Frank has written an attractive Forest Service pamphlet entitled Water and Our Forests. Issued as Miscellaneous Publication No. 600 of the Department of Agriculture, this illustrated monograph demonstrates clearly and effectively the importance of water in our economy and the role played by upland forests in regulating streamflow. The authors urge better forest management on watersheds and indicate how all citizens can contribute to this end. Developing a related theme in The Living Wilderness for June, Mr. Frank writes under the heading "The Wilderness: a Major Water Resource." This inspiring, illustrated article points out the unities in water conservation and wilderness preservation. Incidentally, it is accompanied by a map of the United States showing wild areas ill relation to rivers. NOTE: The exchange periodicals received from other clubs ami must of the miscellaneous publications mentioned in the Hulk-tin an k, ,,l, on til,, at. I'. A. T. C. Headquarters. SOU 17th Street. N. W. Any P. A. T. C. member is welcome to consult or borrow IN THE CURRENT OUTDOOR MAGAZINES American Forests (American Forestry Association).—The new Big Bend National Park in southwestern Texas is the subject of an article in the July number. Walter P. Taylor's "Big Bend" tells of the establishment of this arid wonderland as a park and its geology, flora, and fauna. John D. Kendig's "Island of the Eagles" in the same magazine describes Mt. Johnson Island in the lower Susquehanna River, the world's only known sanctuary for the bald eagle. Audubon Magazine (National Audubon Society).—One of the more interesting natural areas in the East is described in Hal H. Harrison's "Pymatuning" in the May number. Pymatuning Lake, an ornithologist's paradise along the Ohio border in northwestern Pennsylvania, was once a swamp but is now a flood control reservoir and State game refuge.

This 1946 bulletin by the Potomac Appalachian Trail Club includes (pages 104-108) a 1910 letter to Horace Kephart from A.A. Chable who wrote of his “tramping, camping, and mountain climbing” in the Smokies. Horace Kephart (1862-1931) was a noted naturalist, woodsman, journalist, and author and promoter of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
