Done is your life work, done.
Upon yon thistle's ragged, faded crown
Your worn-out body clings. Your wings
Tattered, and frayed, and torn are still Gone is the summer, gone.
No more the golden glory of the sun
Calls you afield. They yield
Again for you, the blossoms, nectar
Never.
Alone, far from your home, alone.
Until the last you bravely carried on.
Your sisters in the busy hive, alive,
Sip the wild sweets you labors brought
Together.
Oh friendly bee, your humming song is sung.
Your motto, "one for all and all for one",
Your life portrayed. The shade
Of death your deeds from memory has

How YOU Can Help The
Naturalist Work in Mt. Rainier
National Park.

Dedicated to public service and the development of a greater appreciation of the National Parks by the people of the nation, the naturalist department has been materially aided by thoughtful donations from those whom it has served in the past. Books on natural history, on human history of the Pacific Northwest, on Indian lore, interesting historical photographs or news clippings relative to the park, and magazines (such as) NATURE, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, AMERICAN FORESTS, NATURAL HISTORY, BIRD LORE, and the like have swelled our library and have facilitated a better presentation of the interesting features of this park to our visiting public through the various mediums at our command.
