The de velopment of a better community apirit among residents of the State Forest Reserve, which extends from Caledonia to Hunter's Run, is the aim of District Forester John R.

Stationed on the South Mountain Reserve for five years, Forester Williams has won the admiration of all the residents of that section, who are working with him in the attainment of the ideal which he is holding up before the people who reside on State land and are employed exclusively by the Forestry Department and Game Commission.
