of fact the entire character of the 2700 square mile provincial park has been under change for some years but only now is it becoming apparent to the casual traveller who hasnt vimted there for a time there was a time when tho in terior of algonquin park could be reached only by railway or canoe the building of highway across the southern edge of the area made- it more accessible until a couple of years ago the social centre of the park was high land inn a vast wooden structure which towered over cache lake highland inn now is in the last stage of demolition under the re cent policv of the

and land which may be ob tained by the crown the people of ontario for the use of every one most of the cottages repur chased or taken over are fairly old structures butlt in the days when it was possible to lease crown land some were built in fact before the park was a park most of these cottages or sum mer residences are slated for de molition with usable material go ing to help construct ranger cabins and furnuhmgs being sent to lands and forests stations throughout the north the land in many caes is being cleared ind used for con struction ot public camp sites for tenting kvit ions

resenation fish and game preserve health resort and pleasure ground for the ben efit advantage and enjoyment of the people of the province with the encroachment of so- i called civilization however there seemed to be definite danger of the area becoming too commercial with hot dog souvenir stands and j so forth and there was a threat al so that the park would be taken over bv a privileged few rather than being reserved for all the people of the province under the administrative pohc now being followed by the ontario government no leases are granted no licencesof occupation issued to individuals or to private enterprise it was apparent in a recent tour of the park that the new potcy has j been most popular with the thou- i sands of people who either could not afford highpriced accommod- ation on vacation or who preferred to do their own camping cooking i and playing now the man wife i and two or three children can ob- i tain space at the various camp sites at a reasonable
