  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Needless destruction of game resources Author: Finley, William L. (William Lovell), 1876-1953 Year: 1930 Manuscript that explores the senseless killing of wild animals. Despite being a protected animal, a black bear mother and cub had been shot down. The author contends that black bears are the most human of wild animals in the Oregon woods. The author also describes characteristics of the bear and what it eats. The document goes on to say that there are people who simply enjoy being out in nature and can truly appreciate a wildlife sighting. However, due to hunters, those people are robbed of these experiences. Title: Needless destruction of game resources Author: Finley, William L.

  	Citation × Citation Citation Abstract Copy Title: Blue Mountains, Katoomba, N.S.W. Year: 1915 Image Description from historic lecture booklet: "Australia is easily divided into a few distinct natural regions. The East Australian highlands are made up of series of low mountain ranges that are heavily forested. The Great Dividing Range, the New England Range, and the Blue Mountains are included within this highland region. The mineral resources and the water power of this region encourage mining and manufacturing, and have led to the great industrial development of New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. Most of the white people of Australia live in this portion of the continent, and it is rapidly becoming more and more densely populated. The Victorian Highlands extend in an east-and-west direction near the southern end of the East Australian Highland, and just south of the Victorian Highlands is the broad, rich valley of Victoria."
