The article itself read as folâ€" ern cities and take a day or two days to get to the "jumping off" places. "The old timers bring a wealth of memories to town. It is pretty hard to menticn an area which they have not traversed at one time or another. Fields which are blossoming toâ€"day are old stories t them. What is truly asâ€" tounding is thuir exact recollections of streams, trails and lakes.
