(“Looker On" Writes ! «f Flower Gardens. j Now (hut the Christinas holidays have passed and January is with us, we begin to piun for soring, and think of gardens, and gardening. Do you j know you could write a book, and an: enormous one too, about flower gar dens. The garden is a school of pa- j tience. What ever its nature may be, its true beauty is in having grown old. The perfect garden does not exist. “God Almighty first planted a gar den.” So Bacon began bis essay on | gardens. Let «s not forget the divine j origin of gardens. In England, “that precious stone set in the silver sea”, j no house and grounds are too small! but that they afford room for some! sort of garden. Few are so poor that! they will dispense with one. There is] I nothing that rewards the laborer more j than the sudden magical appearance so*e fine morning of a burst of blue 'or scarlet flame out of the cold, brown! earth. Something mysteriously lovely; happens to ones soul at the sight of such magic; and I doubt if in all his-j tory there is a record of a single se- j rious crime having been committed by a gardener, or even a city florist. Gardens were forbidden luxury in the middle ages. Life was only safe within fortified walls. There is an ad ded charm about a garden where stately lilies blow and fill the air with fragrance, yet it is a surprise to note the infrequency with which we meet them. A garden is made not only to look at but to live in. A certain wag has observed that you can't be a good gardener, and a modernist, in relig ion - So much of the good gardener’s| tip.jo is pent on the knees, 1 am not so , Mire that the analogy be sound, but j v*a ere mire of the necessity in both garden and garden enjoyment. You simply have to kneel when you weed; but did it ever occur to you that the brtiutif • of vast quantities of flowers cannot be enjoyed standing up or comfortably'sitting down? You have to kneel. CARP OF THANKS. V • ish to tike this opportunity! to thank our friends anti neighbors for their many kindnesses during the accident arid death of our dear hus band, father and grandfather.
