GlS(dtiondl Vark in Qreat Smoky ^Mountains THE Great Smoky Mountains, lying along the border between Tennessee and North Carolina, have received official approval as being national park material. Secretary of The Interior, Dr. Hubert Work, appointed a commission to find an area in the Southern Appalachian Mountains suitable for a national park. The commission visited more than a dozen areas which were being put forth for national park purposes. The report submitted to Secretary Work by the commission, after having referred to all the other areas by name, was as follows with reference to the Great Smoky Mountains : "We have found many areas which could well be chosen, but the committee was charged with the responsibility of selecting the best, all things considered. Of these several possible sites, the Great Smoky Mountains easily stand first because of the height of mountains, depth of valleys, ruggedness of the area, and the unexampled variety of trees, shrubs and plants." Experts in geology, ornithology and botany, as well as nature lovers from various parts of America have recently visited the Great Smoky Mountains. With one accord they sing the praises of these mountains. Surprise has been expressed from many quarters that mountains with such distinctive features have for so long remained unexplored and unknown. National park enthusiasts, however, now state that although it is admitted on all hands that America has the finest national park system in the world, that this system is incomplete without the Great Smoky Mountains. The infinite variety of trees, plants and shrubs which are found in the Great Smoky Mountains are not found in any other national park. In fact, there is no similar area in the entire world having such great variety. The climate of the Great Smoky Mountains is such that it will attract tourists in all seasons of the year. On the hottest day of the summer it is always cool in these mountains. In the winter, the temperature in the mountain valleys is actually milder than that in the cities of this section. Of course, on top of the mountains the temperature reaches much lower levels. Funds for the purchase of this area for national park purposes are pouring in from all parts of the nation and it is confidently believed that a national park will be officially created by Congress during 1926.

Produced by the Knoxville Chamber of Commerce, this 22-page booklet promotes the area in and around Knoxville, Tennessee. Titled, “Just the High Spots of Knoxville and East Tennessee,” the book is a curious mix of promotion. While the brochure promotes the idea of a national park in the Great Smokies, it equally touts industrial progress with pages devoted to agriculture, transportation, education, industry, and hydro-electric development.
