    u.l. printed: In years long past, when pack animals and \ overlandstages followed beaten trails up and \ down mountain wildernesses, a day's journey lay \ between points we now pass in half an hour's ride \ on our pathway of steel. Then each peculiarity \ of nature was relatively more prominent than now \ and the name it bore usually had some local sign- \ ificance. Hence Johnson's Canyon, a pictures- \ que little gorge a few miles west of Williams, \ Arizona, bears the name of a one time local char- \ acter.
