Of dry fax stalks and, making rough

he found the distressed chief and his

So 'Kaikai- a waro' took them in charge.
He swan slowly along in front Of the

of the sea. and .joyfully the fugitivess
padded along after their pilot. He led
them safely southwark into smooth

benevolent deeds of my ancestral fish

But there is another and more wonder

Newness in Buildings.
From the Kansas City Star.

From the Kansas City Star.
A new building. clean and freshly
painted. Is one Of the most unattractive
things in the world. Take a shining
new house, set in treeless lot with
out shrubbery or vines. It looks as
harsh and bumptious and obtrusive as
a fresh young agent who sets his foot
inside the door the moment it is opened
to keep 1t from being shut in his face.
Age is needed to give charm and
dignity to buildings, to make them a
part Of the landscape. A new piece of
stonework or brick or stucco stands up
like sore thumb 1t doesn't fit in
with the rest Of things. The planet IS
somewhat weathered by the winds and
rains OF millions Of years. and a per-
manent addition to it needs at least a
little weathering to harmonic.
The gray of the great cathedrals which
have accumulated the smoke and dust
and CRIME Of centuries is one great
source Of charm. To clean Westminster
Abbey's hoary walls would ruin them.
An example of the cheapening effect of
newness is conspicuous In Kansas City
in the partly cleaned walls of the new
station. The gray stonework is won
derfully impressive in its massive dig
nifty. But where the walls have been
cleaned and whitened they give the i'm
preston Of staring artifciality and
priinness wholly out Of keeping with the
general scheme Of a monumental city en-
trance. Happily. in the case Of the sta
ton the devastation wrought by the
cleaning will be repaired within a few
years. Meanwhile it may stand as a
horrible example.
New things generally are more or less
distressing-new shoes. new clothes. new
houses. They all have to be lived with
awhile before theAget humanized.

The GaIax Industry
of North Carolina

no YOU know what galax is?
Ten chances to one you are
familiar with the stiff green-brown leaves
used by florists either as a backing for
huge punches of violets- Or in connec-
ton with funeral wreaths. Their beauty
lies In the changes of their coloring.
while their value as a decoration lies in
the fact that they do not fade readily.
They keep so long that many times they
are used in connection with wax flowers.
The picking of the galax leaves Is an
industry-one of those small, yet i'm
portant community industries which rep
resent an important part OF the lives
of those engaged in it. The chief area
in which they are found is the mountain
region of North Carolina, and those who
spend their days in gathering the stin.
glossy leaves are the mountain people
of that section of the country.
Imagine gathering a thousand or these
leaves. Not snatching them from the
plants helter-skelter, but carefully pick
ing only those that are perfect. Think
of the back breaking task IT must be,
and then. imagine selling this same thou
sand. For what? Exactly - cents cash.
Or, IL the amount is taken out in trade,
% cents.
Yet the gathering of galax leaves is an
industry" Cultivated plants do not pro-
duce the same perfect, glossy leaves as
the plants, which grow in the cool. damp
mountain regions of North Carolina and
consequently the demand cannot be met
by the cultivated product.
The corner store figures prominently
in the galax industry. 1t is usually to
this POE that the pickers carry their
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1914-07-05

leaves, where they either sell them out
right FOR the % cents or secure flour,
TOBACCO or calico to the amount of 25
cents. The storekeeper then makes the
leaves up into bundles, according to size
and ships them to the northern dealers.
The leaves as finally purchased by the
retail florists cost about IS cents a thou
sand.
One of the most interesting features in
connection with the galax industry IL its
relation to forest fires. The forest serv-
Ice has discovered that the industry tends
to decrease forest fires. The plant, to
reach Its highest state of perfection re-
quires the shade and dampness of a
forest: also. in burned lover areas, the
product is poor. The mountaineers rea-
lie that their industry hinges to a con-
siderable extent upon the forests and
they do all in their power to prevent the
breaking out of forest fires. Statistics
nave shown that in those regions where
the galax plants abound fewer fires oc-
cur than elsewhere in the same forest.
The warm months are the time of the
year when galax is at its best. The plant
dies down in winter to spring up again
with the return of the warm days. But
one species is known to exist in this
country. Galax aphylla. This, literally
translated, means. strangely enough
''leafess galax." The word .galax'' is of
Greek origin. meaning milk or Wilderness
When young the leaves OF the plant are
whitish. which accounts for the use Of
the word.
Although galax grows elsewhere than
in North Carolina. that locality has been
found to produce the best quality of
leaves. and the industry, therefore, has
become practically monopoly in that
section.

Only when periodical cave-ins occur

abandoned Hinepoupou at the south end

Meanwhile Hinepoupou, the deserted,

northern end Of the island, where she

swim far beyond human endurance. but

Maoris in order to discover what her fate
would be- Going to a flax bush, she care

walked down to the extreme southern
point of Kapiti Island and, gaz-

her island home, she recited an invo-

we inflicted severe losses on another

About the booty at Antwerp no

BOMBS DROPPED ON.
PARIS KILL -FOUR

Paris, Get 13.-Four civilians were
killed and twenty persons, half of
them women and children, injured by
bombs dropped in various quarters of
Paris by two German aviators.
Several of the twenty bombs failed
to explode.
Three of the incendiary bombs
dropped on the Cathedral of Notre
Dame did not explode. The remain
ing one struck the roof of the north
transept and exploded, blew large
hole in the church, setting fire to a
beam. The fire was extinguished
without difficulty. The damage is
only slight.
A pennant dropped by one of the
airmen bore this message: I'VE have
taken Antwerp; your turn will come
soon."
