INHERENT. LOVE OF THE SOIL
Characteristic That ls the Most Deep
 Iy Planted in Mortals.

The first man was gardener, we are told. Certain it is that the first men were tillers of the soil, after they ceased to be wandering warriors That is where we get our love of na' ture, declares a writer in the Kansas City Journal. That is why We build parks and have flowers clambering about our premises. That is why we are strangely at peace when we ge' out into the mountains and lose our selves among the fragrant woods, That is why we loathe at times the smell of paint that is on civilization and long for the perfume of the life that is close to the green leaves and the wild flowers. That is why we are so happy when we camp out and why we are so reluctant to return. That IS why our earliest recollections of the "old farm" are the sweetest and ten derest of our lives. That is why we crack a joke at the simple life" and "back to nature" and all that-when somebody is around-and why we know, away down in our hearts. that the simple life is the life most worth living and that we cannot get close to anything sweeter or purer than na' lure, Mother Nature, whose sons and daughters we are. from whom we may wander far, but to whom We re turn as Drodigals, finding the prodi gals welcome and the prodigars peace.
