'Tis dark under the trees, and all the children sets up to howling that they want to go home. "'Ye'll pass the night in this stretch of woods and scenery, says Officer Reagan. ''Twill be fine and imprisonment for insoolting the Park Commissioner and the Chief of the Weather Bureau if ye refuse.
By this time it was clear enough that the only hope of adequate regulation lay with the Federal Government.
