  • FEBRUARY 1934 HIKE SUPERVISOR—HUGH C. WEBB FEBRUARY 8 MOUNTAIN LITERATURE MEETING The literature of the mountains is manifold. In it are tales of high adventure; accounts and descriptions of appearance, structure, flora and fauna (including the homo sapiens); poetic and interpretive thought; and far-reaching proposals for use. Mt. Everest, the South Pole—flowers and rocks—the homespun life of highland peoples—"the ambuscades and surprises" of hill country—"Steep Trails"—earth-born philosophies and plans—the Appalachian Trail and "wilderness empires"—such are the resource and fruit of the mountains. A recent play has it, "Life is so much more resourceful and resilient than one is oneself." This is our opportunity thru the eyes of literature, thus to see beyond ourselves. But how little it will be possible to review in one evening, even with the vivid aids of music, pictures, maps, and diagrams. Meet at the Y. M. C. A. at 7:30 P. M. Leaders: HELEN NORTHUP (3-7271) HARVEY BROOME (6-1224) 1 here's sunshine in the heart of me, My blood sings in the breeze; J he mountains arc a part of me. I'm fclloiv to the trees. —Ethel Romig Fuller 15
