Yellowstone National Park opened on June ISth this year, two days earlier than ever before, to accommodate the tourist hundreds already in the West who desired to begin their trips through this wonderland as early as possible. Superintendent Horace M. Albright in a communication to A. B. Smith, passenger traffic manager of the Northern Pacific railway, stated that both geysers and bears are more playful than ever. Mr. Smith said that the volume of inquiries from prospective travelers indicates a big tourist season. Conservative estimates places the total number of Yellowstone visitors at 180.000 this year against 144,100 In 1924.
