WANTS JOY GARDEN
As 4 MEMORIAL
Suggested Tribute to Memory
of President Abraham
Lincoln.

Washington. August 1s.-"The gar
dens OF Lincoln"
This is the suggestion of Joseph j.
o'Br!en. OF Washington. as a memorial
for the martyred President.
Analostan Island, according 10 Mt.
o'Brien. could be made into a great
national garden. a memorial hall
could be built there. which would per-
petuate the life and works Of the
President, and by its usefulness ex-
press his attitude toward life.
Any plan TO honor the memory of the
emancipation must embody his spirit
said Mr.. O'Brien. There should be
something more than a memorial of
unyieldlng stone. The President loved
laughter and song. and these charac-
teristics should not be overlooked. A
national garden, where people could
gather for recreation and instruction.
would be the most appropriate memo
rial, in the opinion of Mr.. OBr!en, that
could be provided.
Argues for His Plum.
Speaking of the advantages of
Analoston Island with respect to loca-
ton of n national garden, Mr.. OBrien
said:
THE Potomac, accommodating its
waters in the Cumberland hills. hows
past the national capital to its Vir-
ginia outlet. Within sight of the
Washington Monument it surrounds
Analostan Island. forgotten in Its ma
tive desolation.

avoid flood and submerge swamp. and
here create a national JOY ground.
Throughout it's area intersecting
canals can be cut. and within Or near
1t a great basin. feeding the canals.
mortal structure. in the form of a
combined open and inclosed concert
edifice could be erected. with it's walls
built for the display of aquatic life.
From the ends of the island two cas-
cades can be created to add to Its
beauty. while oyer the Island flowers.
trees and plants could unite with the
intersectnG canals to preserve the
spirit OF beauty.
THE memorial building forming a
concert hall for use during winter and
summer. could perpetuate the image,
life and works of Lincoln and by its
usefulness express his attitude to life.
Looks Into the Future.

vision of hundreds of gaily dressed
