Mans Greatest Portrayer

Three hundred years of such a per-
vasive and regnant personality as
Shakespeare have brought the features
of the human soul into full portraiture.
All the way from Caliban up to Pros
pero, who uses his dainty and intelli-
gent Ariel with such majesty and
grace, Shakespeare has led our
humanity to know itself. The greatest
enterprise in the world, making itself
more plain upon the awful background
of the world at war. is the American
government which had its mighty i'm
pulse in Shakespeare's time when the
playwright and the preacher, the poet
and the Puritan, both urged upon
mankind the one lesson that man is
great enough in his sorrows. sins and
aspirations to invite heavens blessing
on so mighty a task as the governing
Of himself. - Shakespeare and the
American Spirit" DR.. Frank w. Gun
saulus. Ia National Magazine for April.

How to Attract the Birds

In the May Woman's Home Com
panion Franz Biehler gives direction
as to building houses that birds will
nest in and how to secure a garden
that birds will come to.
"a good many species. to be sure,
build their own nests to suit them
selves. They choose their own quar-
ters, and will have nothing to do with
all those cute little houses and nesting
boxes which we put up so insinuating-
ly about the garden-always in places
where we can watch what is going
on.
But the martins and the swallows,
the wrens and the bluebirds, the
chickadees, and even the f1ickers and
the screech owls, can sometimes be
enticed to adopt our human-made
tenements. Indeed, some of them,
like the martins, seem to be peculiar
ly happy with the provisions which we
offer. There is no end of fun making
these bird houses. They should always
have q projecting roof to keep out the
rain, and the front door should be
high off the floor"
Mr.. Biehler also reminds all bird
lovers that water is an essential to any
bird garden and tells how 1t should be
used to the best advantage.

DIXIE GOES AHEAD
The. Sand Hill Board of Trade
By Frederic ]. Haskin
TIME Sand Hill Board of Trade is
q oreat deal more than q com.

TIME Sand Hill Board of Trade is
a great deal more than a COM
- mercial organization. 1t is the
practical expression of an ideal of
community life in the country. The
members tell you this; then they lead
you out in the sand hills and show you
their schools and roads and scupper-
nong vineyards and peach orchards
and cotton fields and tobacco patches.
They show you a very mixed farming
community that fiourishes amazingly
in a shallow and sandy soil, largely by
reason of the fact that all of it's mem
bers pull one way. They make you
believe in their ideal.
The Sand Hill Board of Trade can't
be classified; it is the only one of its
kind. 1t is an Independent and self
constituted Democracy which has no
regard whatever for county lines.
This is the way 1t came into being.
Among those who have moved into
the Sand Hills within the last five
years have been about forty men from
New York, Boston and other big cities.
Nearly all of them brought money,
youth and brains. Most important OF
all, they brought a pretty definite
ideal of what they wanted to do.
Ralph w. Page, once New
York lawyer, is the chief expounder
of the Sand Hill philosophy. Rural
life, he points out, should be the best

kind in the world. It may have
much of the culture and variety of
city life together with the freedom
and fresh air and health of the great
outdoors. England. of course, is the
classical example of this. But in Eng
land the weather. people do not go
TO the country merely to have a good
time. They live there and the best of
them devote their time and energy to
the development of their communities.
That is what the Sand Hill men
organized to do, and they are doing it.
Furthermore, they take themselves
and their jobs seriously They do not
merely come here to visit once a year;
they live here. They wear soft shirts
and khaki and scoot around in cheap
autos. A presuming reporter from
Philadelphia once wrote them up as
"gilded youths" and they still frown
when the name of this particular
scribe is mentioned.
These men made raH Board of Trade
but the natives mace 1t go. They
are highland Scotchmen whose fore
fathers came here in colonial times.
They move slowly but certainly-and
they are the bone and sinew of the
Sand Hill Board of Trade. When the
prime movers of the organization had
made their plans, they called a big

Guard Well the Land

Guard we'll the sweet land of liberty,
Long may it shelter the brave and
free,
Ne'er let a foe tread its sacred soil
Nor put in chains its brave sons of

Gird on an armor to guard the home
From which no prodigal e'er would
roam;
Gird on an armor to guard the graves
Ger which the Star-Spangled banner
waves.
Guard well the sweet land OF liberty,
Dot 1t with armories from sea to sea;
Safeguard its coasts with a mighty
fleet
One that no power on earth can de-
feat.
Darken its heavens with birds of steel,
Place trained man on each mon
strous teal,
Then let our Presidents nrm voice
ring
Clear to Kaiser. Gear, a King.
