This, in turn, leads to a Avater .sliortage and afifeets its food producing power. Children, especially, constitute an enthusiastic, but unconsciously, predatory element. In their eagerness to sense the magnitude of the largest and oldest trees, they are in the habit of climbing about the burly outgrowths^ of their bases. The bark covering the living con- nections with the soil is gradually worn away and the vital tissues in the exposed area die off. When injury is heaped upon injury and the healing tissues destroyed almost as soon as formed, recovery is impossible. Unfavorable living conditions and the elimination of functions which concern the whole life of the tree conspire to bring about an early decline. It is not necessary to take this on faith. Those who travel the trails can observe for themselves the various stages in the process. Here are concrete examples respecting man's influence on the plant life about him. The lesson which has been learned from these series of observations has a more salutary effect that any campaign of "don'ts," because the approach has been to win rather than to disci- pline. The program provides two trail trips every morning, commencing at nine o'clock. Two or three afternoon walks are made, as occasion demands, and one all-day hike is given each week.
