gives 1t an ever-present exhileration.
Beauty is the Omnipotent charm Of the
universe and 1t holds perpetual court In
the landscape. All men are courtlers
bowing to beauty. Under that most
compelling teacher we all prefer to
study the mysteries OF the universe
Take beauty out Of the landscape and
we instantly turn away from 1t. Put
more beauty into 1t and we camp by the
wayslde to enjoy it's sweet entertainments.
We have no quarrel with Emerson, who
holds that Beyond their sensuOus de-
light, the forms and cOlors Of nature
have a new charm for us In our percep-
tion that not one ornament was added
for ornaments sake" all for utility, and
the climax OF utility Is ultimate beauty.
Men travel the world over to see the
landscape.
-
Is there any wonder that landscape
gardening holds such a vast place in
human affairs? The true landscape gar
dener produces on small scale the ex-
cellences OF the universal landscape. He
puts in small compass much that God
placed In large compass. He groups, in
miniature, In garden and park of few
square feet or acres, the trees and shrubs
and flowers and water pools that God
has grouped widely on vast unmeasured
squares OF the earth's surface. And he
must always have reference to skyline
and land-line, to outline and milne, TO
vista, green carpet and umbrage, groups
and masses, single shrub and solitary
tree; and, for comfort and convenience,
he has added walks and drives, paying
due regard to that exquisite curve that
geometers and artists call "the line Of
beauty" Some half-blOwn artists insult
you with rude daub which they call
"a landscape" and some half-hedged
Iandscapists insult you, equally, with
rude patchwork which they call land
scape garden.
We should have schools In landscape
gardening as well as in agriculture and
dairying.
America, instead Of following, should
lead the world in fine landscaping, and
Kansas should lead America In tlGgR d.
rectiOn. We have the broad acres at our
gateways, we have the soil and climate,
and we ought to have the talent and
energy in that, as we have in so many
other directions.
Twenty-six cities In the United States
have an aggregate of 100000 acres in
public parks, while eight capitals Of the
old world have an aggregate OF 217,O0O
acres set apart for breathing spaces,
health resorts and schools OF beauty.
And since one-half Of all the population
Of the United States lives in crowded
towns and cities the need OF fine land
Scape gardens clustered in all suburbs
Is imperative. The National Govern

Of land for public parks-the Yosemite
