Years ago, it was known as if 6 for i hidden thing, full ©of creeping aryl •; trawling reptiles and insects, and with | vegetation almost tropical in its pro- | fusion. In it were flinging vines. like a jungle, with water everywhere, miklly shallow, with occasionally ♦ deep ! and treacherous pool. A couple of de- | <ades ago drainage of this swamp was started undo partly accomplished, the hope heingbthat desirable farming land r might result if was in the SO’s that a woman fell under the spell of the won- • ders of this remarkable place. The more she realized the possibilities of this jungle, its mafvelous growing vegetation, the birds that sought in it a home and a haten, the wild life that teemed within'its borders, the more fascftiated she became. And so she built a cabin within an eighth of a mile of this dense swamp. "In this swamp, with camera and other paraphernalia, she penetrated day after day. courageously and fearlessly, in an effort Io learn its secrets. And as she toiled, as she worked, she wrote about the great out doors, so that you and I might know its secrets. Today, a movement has been inaugurated in Indiana, under the auspices of 1 the Izaak Walton League to bring | hack that swamp. The setting for a beautiful park is there. Ju the order of things in Indiana, it would be a I spjendid trilfute to a splendid woman I to establish such a park. "Gentlemen of this convention, the swamp 1 refer to is the Limberlost, [ and the woman who penetrated it is our own Indianan, Gene Stratton PorI ter." o ELECTION board MEMBERS NAMED (CON AffVBD FROM PAGI£ ONE) Judge, Edwin Beer; Clerk.
