CIVIC BEAUTY. GREAT ASSET
Always, In Building Community, That
Fact, Commercially Sound, Must
Be Kept In Mind.

The farmer regards it as most thor.
Oughly businesslike to improve his
land and buildings, discovering en-
hanced values and increased produc-
lion In the possession of adjuncts that
make for simplifled operation. A COM
modious, well.painted house with some
sense of Horticulture and landscaping
about 1t Is instantly Of more value than
tumbledown house with no beauty
about 1t, although both houses NAV be
situated On land that is equally pro-
ductive.
And so with communities. We must
not Imagine that civic beauty ia q
thing apart from everyday life. If
that were true we would be importing
hodgepOdge Of obelisks and gothic
facadeS and pergolas and expect our
people to believe them our own. But
architecture symbolizes the civiliza-
ton that devises 1t, not only visualiz-
ing the beauty of strength but turn
Ing 1t to the purposes symbolized.
Thus we get back to the slogan, "A
plan that isn't sound commercially
isn't worth considering"
The plan, sound commercially, is the
result Of an inquiry into what is need
ed and the desire to fulfill that need
IN a beautiful and utilitarian way.

Give Every Attention to Details.

The foundation of home Is de.
signed and built to support the struc-
ture that is necessary to fill our
needs. The foundation Of any busi-
ness must be planned with the same
accuracy. If we aim to build up non.
competitive structure, the foundation
cannot be laid on some byway, remote
from travel. 1t would require too
large an expenditure in advertising
mediums to draw the trade to such
isolated places.
Therefore, our plans must be com.
plete in every detail. Each depart.
ment should be equipped with the nee.
essary furniture to make it attractive
and serviceable; each ventilated by
aspiration and heated with enthusi-
asm.-EXchange.

Formal Garden Attractive.

John Evelyn has left plenty OF de-
scriptions in his dairy of the great
gardens he saw on the continent, as
well as In England, in addition to his
writings which deal directly with the
subject.
1t Is much open to question whether
the transition from formal gardening
TO landscape gardening was such Il
step In advance as was thought at the
time. The formal garden, with its
clipped hedges, its pleached alleys, It's
ponds and It's carefully planned flower
beds, was pleasant development Of
the gardeners art, and one which,
after suffering temporary eclipse,
seems to be coming to Its own once
