To-day's Selected Poem
TO A WINE GRAPE

(E. w. Chandler in The New York Times) In my garden Gather sunlight Buddy, ardent. clear, Cooled by fragrant dews of midnight When the dawn draws near. Take to give Again the sparkle Of the splash of rain; Treasure up The winds caress That on your cheek has lain. Store the ardor Of your growing Through the heat of noon, And engage a subtle magic Underneath the moon. Gather these And hold them over Into wintry weather Then we'll warm The night with laughter, You and fngether.

THE sLEEPING GIANT
(Hartford courant),

The Sleeping Giant. whose sorely battered head lies in Hamden above Whitney avenue, and whose toes lie miles to the eastward, now seems likely to sleep in peace, his dreams no longer, disturbed sby theIthtob- ping of drills and the. thunder of of dynamite. Never again will he be as impressive as he was before 1911, ewhen a traprock quarry was opened on his scalp and as the years went on, dug into his skull. Thousands of tons of road gravel have been blasted out y0f the Giants head until day, one must call on his imagination to recog- nize 1t as a head. z, .zS
 Since 1914, when the, menace to the picturesque old landmark be- came matter of public concern the Sleeping Giant Park Associar tion has endeavored to save Y the head. s A surprising. number of private, contributors supported the association and enabled 1t. first,. to acquire land on the mountain that might otherwise be used for pri- yate purposes and, later tQ pur- chase the head into which the quarry was boring. UnfOrtunately, the quarrying company held lease giving 1t the right to continue It's operations almost indefinitely, no matter who owned the head. A tenn porary injunction restrained the operations dntil the Association could buy the company off. Last week. the agreement was signed and the first payment made.
 Of the $30.000 needed for the transaction, s2s, ,oOo. remains to be raised before August 15. None who remember the ugly. greypblue gash In the mountain and can se n ms minds eye teh added destruction that a resumption of quarrying will cause can doubt the worthiness Of the cause. The County. of New Ha- ven deserves congratulations for the enterprise of It's citizens. is V '. too much to hope that even In these times, material assistance may be forthcoming from other coun- [ ties as well? gisss
