NEW ENGLAND NATIONAL PARK. ARMIDALE, Thursday. The first meeting of the recently gazetted trustees of an area of more than 42,000 acres between the tableland and the coast, was held at Armidale. Bylaws were adopted, and the area named the New England National Park. The area embraces Point Lookout, regarded as affording one of the finest panoramic views in the world. The park is 25 miles from Bel- lingen, 48 from Armidale, 10 from Dorrigo, 30 from Macksville, 40 from Kempsey, and 55 from Grafton. Steps are being taken to develop the area, and to provide means of ac- cess to it.
