The outstanding fault OF the average
home garden is that 1t lies too open
to the sight.
At first blush it might seem to the
uninitiated that this would be a good
thing, and Is as it ought to be.
But the concealment principle in
Nature is god one.
Recall your last trip through a forest
The lure was the intrigue of the
unknown. You were not exactly sure
what you were going to run into. There
were wild flowers to find, sudden opened
vistas to see, perhaps snakes to en-
counter.
Mystery is at the heart Of the I'M
known, and even civilization should not
willingly forego it.
Even the bit of civilization known
as a garden, whether of the formal or
informal type, should contain its ele-
ments CT the unknown.
That seems to be the reason why the
unfenced, wide-open garden can never
be as soothing, as pleasant, as lovely
garden as the place properly hedged
in, preferably walled in.
The definite boundary, whatever its
type. is not so much to keep other
people out as to keep its charm in.

Fer charm, in the true sense, a gar

IT'S wall, or hedge, or fence Clothed
in vines), should hide from the passing
world the wealth Of beauty which is
behind it. so that even the owner, as
well as he knows every inch of his
garden, may have sense Of anticipa-
ton when he returns to 1t.
No enc should willingly give up this
sense, either in life, books, gardens or
whatnot. 1t is the spice Of living.

at mere glance, can take in every
corner Of 1t.
Even SO little a thing as a gate wiz
do great deal to preserve desirable
expectation. The mere lifting of the
hand to the latch is a physical move
ment toward a mental realization. It
becomes important, and is not slight
action.
The visitor may be able to see over
or even Through the gate, but the fact
that he lifts his hand to open it forces
him to do physical labor, although in
miniature, and this, owing to the
curious construction of human beings,
gives him a mental urge toward the
garden.
If you want visitors really to like
your garden, therefore, give them some
thing to do themselves in order to
enter 1t. This is one Of the funda-
mentals of modern psychology which
may be applied to the home as we'll as
to the school. Splendid use is made Of
this principle in the teaching Of chill
dren That which they do with their
own hands tends to be interesting, and
becomes part of their life.
1t is not enough Just to lcok, or to
listen. That is why many natures tend
in time to become dissatisfied with the
movies, the talkies, the radio. Spec
tator sports" as some call sitting in the
grandstand, cannot take the place of
movement on the field.

Every garden which aims to utilize
psychology as well as the physiology of
the planter and cultivator, should
possess its hidden features.

matters better than Americans, and

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., October g.
Ogden L. Mills, Undcrsecretary of the
! Treasury, was forced today TO cancel
his address before the American Bank
ers' Association. The cancellation came
at the last minute.
Mills said he could not speak because
OF the press of duties in connection with
the Presidents credit plan.
The bankers had looked for a COM

The credit plans coincidence with
the associations convention and the
Presidents proclamation had caused
bankers to hope that Mr.. Mills would
interpret the administrations desires.
The association has approved the plan.
1t Is known that President Hoover
desired action by the convention. and
it was reported here that the Presi-
dent was pleased by the enthusiastic
offer Of cooperation by the delegates.
Many bankers here are from the rural
districts and they were hopeful that the

yet frozen, mortgages. Bankers who

Of unusable real estate collateral anti
