Germany is indeed the land of music.
And 1t may well be that no one can really
know music without coming here. To be
at one with the soul of music one must
come to the beautiful land of the Rhine.
For music is of the very life of the people.
These people have called forth the great
masters of sound. They have called forth
men of genius who have woven the strange
and mighty tone pictures that thrill the
world. They have evoked Bach, Handel,
Mozart and the mighty Beethoven. You
hear music everywhere as you go along
over this land of understanding plains,
and forests, and noble rivers Germany is
land of glorious and beautiful sound.
And how fine 1t is to wander along, listen

been intrusted the message that music holds
for mankind. They have sent forth the
glorious evangels Of music.

there are many like him in the Norton

coined an agricultural course, and

WILD WOODS BECOME PARKS

The landscape gardening which has
transformed a wild woods into one OF
the most beautiful scenic parks, will
also serve as an object lesson to farm
ers and all who have grounds TO beau
tify with flowers, shrubs and trees.
More than a million plants and trees
are growing on the Exposition
grounds, many of which have been
transplanted others are native to the
soil. Among the trees transplanted
we're several hundred old trees, some
comprising an apple orchard, whose
trees were removed and planted
around the thirty-acre drill plain on
the grounds. These and the pines,
cedars, dogwoods and other trees have
not suffered by being transplanted.
