Now I know we were entranced, in- spired, uplifted by the unspeakable beauty which God gave to this neg lected land.
 Much as I love these far western wastes, much as I have dreamed of their future greatness, I should be op- pressed with a great sense of sadness if I believed all this rare beauty would be obliterated by the work of reclama- tion. But no such calamity is to be- fall. A hundred thousand souls-yes, five times as many-may build their homes by the magic of the fertiliZing waters. and the scene which has moved MT.

 Some years ago, on hot summer afternoon, sat in a New York sky scraper and dictated long article on the possibilities of the Colorado Des- ert. Friends of mine were about to go to Europe and endeavor to interest capital in the work of reclaiming this immense delta. They had given me the diary of recent exploration of the region, on which I based my prophecy. They wanted me to paint a picture which should convey to minds over sea some conception of the material conquest to be achieved if money and labor might only be joined to the marvellous combination of soil and water and climate. l shut my eyes and let the picture come; then thought aloud while the type writer rattled on for hours When the work was finished. and I handed it to my friends, wondered if that pro

 Well, it was worth while to have Mir. Van Dyke say it in order to chal- lenge the attention and piQue the curi- osity of the public. He startles us into realizing a new and potent claim which the desert has upon our admir- ation, and even our affection. No man has ever ridden across by team (riding by railroad is quite another matter) without being conscious of strange fascination which the place holds for him. He is eXhilarated, stimulated. almost to the point of in- toxication. He wants to sing and generally does so. shamelessly airing a voice which he would not think of inlicting upon his companions under any other circumstances. He feels within him new and tremendous power-feels as if he could leap over the highest steeple or conquer an em- pire. There is something very mys- terious. something occult about 1t. At least, such was my experience and ob- servation until MT Van Dyke spent two winters in the desert, brought hls trained, artistic soul to bear upon 1t. and then poured out his heart in the pages of this unforgettable book
