WILD FLOWERS

One of the queer delusionS that
find a place in human minds is the
belief that the picking of wild flowers
evidences a love of mature" and an
appreciation of beauty, and that to do
1t gives evidence of culture, refine
ment and virtue. Children not only
are allowed, they are encouraged, to
utilize every opportunity thus to des-
poll the fields, and fond parents are
proud of the success their offspring
achieve in this highly deplorable
form of destrucuveness. Since the
automobile came into such general
use, the determination of the wild
flowers has been greatly hastened,
for now the ravagers are not limited
to the fields and woods close to towns,
as before. but the whole countryside
has been made accessible to them,
and, If they could not do enough harm
themselves. they are paying the rural
children--who. if left alone. would
rarely indulge in this kind of van
dalism-to bring the flowers to the
roads.
The season when the most mischief
can be done is just beginning, and al
ready there can be seen cars heavily
loaded not only with blossoms gath
cred one by one, but also with great
branches ruthlessly stripped from
spring Towering trees and shrubs.
Very little of this loot is carried
home. or can be. Most OF it withers
within an hour and is thrown away,
but apparently no compunction is
| felt.
Instead OF showing delicacy of SEN
timent and well-developed esthetic
sense, the wild-flower pickers and
buyers reveal that they are utter
barbarians. They do not hate the
blossoming plants, but the effect is
exactly the same as if they did. for
these frail products of rain and sun
lack the fighting power of the So
called weeds, and if not allowed to
live their highly specialized lives in
places that suit them they give up
in despair and vanish forever. Thus
went the fringed gentian. and thus is
going-is almost gone-the arbutus,
or Mayflower. The latter is eagerly
bought by country born city folks as
reminders of youth, but If they were
wiser and more considerate they in
dignantly would refuse to foster a
trade quite as vicious as that in the
egrets nuptial plumes.
