CAROLINA (Continued from page 293) be read today upon the face of the land, for the whole Low Country abounds with landmarks of that vanished epoch. Rice-planting in lower South Carolina survived the war between the States but languished and finally died as a result of the competition of the Southwest. Many of the great plantations, some of them comprising thousands of acres, are now held as game preserves, so that there are vast areas in the Low Country which abound in game, while the innumerable rivers, creeks, swamps, marshes and lagoons, many of them back-waters or "reserves" of the old rice-planting days, render the region peculiarly adapted to the requirements of an abundant and exceptionally interesting bird-life. Most of the Carolinian mountain country lies in North Carolina; South Carolina has only a small part of it, in the extreme northwestern corner of the state. It is, in sober truth, a magnificent country, inexpressibly beautiful at all seasons, and in places apparently almost as wild as when Daniel Boone roamed and hunted about the headwaters of the Yadkin and the Watauga. Appearances, however, are often deceptive. Over most of the mountain region the larger forms of wild life have been destroyed, and in most of the mountain rivers and streams, once teeming with trout, the fish have been killed out or sadly depleted. A good beginning has been made in the work of bringing back the game. In and near certain protected areas deer and black bear are again abundant, the wild turkey and ruffed grouse are steadily regaining their lost ground. Buffalo and elk, formerly common in the mountains, have been brought in from the West and are being given an opportunity to increase. The establishment of the Great Smoky National Park, partly in North Carolina and partly in Tennessee, will not only work wonders for the conservation of wild life in the Carolina mountains but will also preserve unspoiled for future generations the grandest mountain scenery and the largest stands of virgin timber anywhere in the East. The building of good roads throughout most of the mountain region—and in this respect North Carolina has accomplished miracles—has made her beautiful "Land of the Sky", with its superb views and its invigorating climate, a summer playground for thousands of visitors from all over the Southeast. If she will now carry on vigorously the work of restoring to this delightful region as a whole the wild life that once existed there in almost incredible abundance, she will have in time to come the finest game country east of the Rocky Mountains and will add to it the one thing that it needs to make it irresistibly alluring to the lover of wild Nature. Carolina is as beautiful as her beautiful name. From the lonely beaches of her sea- islands to the misty peaks of her blue mountains she has innumerable charms with which to fascinate the seeker after beauty. In her lowland forests the yellow jessamine and the great-flowered magnolia bloom. Her upland meadows are starred with millions of daisies. Her mountainsides in spring are ablaze with the wild azalea. On her lagoons graceful egrets and fantastic water turkeys ENJOY THE SECRETS OP NATURES Nature lovers everywhere are greeting these collecting sets with a cry of gratitude.

Several articles on the Carolinas appear in this 1931 issue of Nature Magazine. The magazine was collected by George Masa. Born Masahara Iizuka and raised in Japan, George Masa (1881-1933) emigrated to the U.S. when he was 20 years old and, in 1915, came to Asheville, where he lived the rest of his life. Masa was active in the Appalachian Trail Club and in the movement to establish the Great Smoky Mountains National Park.
