Where William Blake Was Buried

From the Westminster Gazette.
An article in the Nineteenth Century by
Herbert G. Jenkins details the means by
which he discovered the grave of Will
liam Blake in Bunhill Fields. The dis
covery. which has equal interest for art
lists and writer's is the more remarkab!
because as the writer of the present
note happens to know. the late Mr.. Hil-
christ. when writing his well known
Life" tired, as he thought. every pos
sible means to find the grave and failed.
1t is odd that he did not find the clues
which Mr. Jenkins followed up SO sue
cessfulIy. but nothing could daunt Mr..
Jenkins.>as is evident from his article. In
il he proves beyond question that the
author of the Songs Of Innocence was
buried at a particular spot in Bunhill
Fields. and the diagram he gives shows
that the grave is now under an asphalt
path of recent construction
The body of the eccentric genius who
was in the habit of seeing visions of an
gels was buried in August, 1927. in a
common grave in the cemetery which also
DR. Watts. not to mention other celebri-
ties oh" said the keeper Of what is
now a city road recreation ground to Mr..
jenkins: Many comes here. sir. lookin'
for Blake's grave-more for his and Bun
vans than for any others-but no one
knows where he was buried" 1t needed
great pertinacity and patient investigation
to Identify the spot. seeing that the same
grave was used three times before and
four times after Blake's burial. No doubt
steps will now be taken to put up ut
ting memorial to the memory of a great
Englishman whose genius united the at
tributes of poet. artist and seer in a sim
gular degree.

Lower Fifth Avenue.
From the Hartford Times.

From the Hartford Times.
New York city newspaper asks the
pertinent question how much further the
process of Transforming the lower half of
9Th avenue into mill town is to be car
ried
The substitution for the dignified old
mansions churches. clubhouses, etc.
which used to line that avenue between
Washington Square and Madison Square.
of skyscrapers which are called lofts"
and are. in fact, factories is one of the
strangest things that ever took place in
a big city. Some of these factory struc-
lures now going up are to be twenty sto-
ries in height. and one such building Will
afford room fer thousands Of men and
women who will be employed there in
making garments Lower 9TH avenue at
the noon hour is now filled with great
crowds of these workers, who go out for
air and the chance to stretch their limbs
They are largely Of foreign birth and do
not differ essentially from the operatives
that one sees in Fall River. New Bedford
or other centers of textile industries.
There would seem TO be just as strong
reason for weaving cotton, worsted or silk
cloth in buildings on 9TH avenue as can
be found for devoting the space TO cut
ting up the cloth and sewing the pieces
together in garments. The conversion OF
lower 9TH avenue into a manufa curing
district is one of the results of the new
system of constructing lofty buildings
cut Of steel. But it is. commercially. an
absurdity. The work could be just as
we'll done in the outskirts of New York
and the lives Of the workers could be
made more heathful IL not more COM
Portable by such an arrangement.
The change i'm this recently fashiona bic
and "aristocratic" section of Manhattan
raises the question whether there will
long be found in that borough the homes
Of any persons of leisure or large means.

In Offering for consideration the theory

principle of protective coloring Yet sew

own readers reject the theory on the
ground that this weakening of 1t had been
carelessly ignored, Oh! weil-that sort
of criticism is too common to be surpris-

1t Is undoubtedly true that the color
of animals is not wholly determined by
the one environmental factor OF tempera-
ture. but it is also true that an approx

protectively colored animal either froze to
death or was ''sunstruck.' And In the
tropics at least, animals are protected
by other colors than white because moth

coolest color as being the most reflective
of all the light rays, long and short. Our
garments have to be permeable. however
have to be strainers. as it were-and a
compromise must be made between what
