Talks to Department Club
Mrs. Dickens described the South
American gardens of melting pot
heritages at meeting of the Wom-
ans Department Club garden sec
ton yesterday.
Her garden of hundreds of rose
trees and rambler hedges, goldfish
pool blooming with lotus and the
rockery, including an outdoor oven,
resembled any of the many gardens
in our state. The bamboo glorietta,
however, was typical of the tropical
gardens, for none are complete
without one of these rustic summer
houses with matched roof.
Mrs. Dickens pointed out that the
seasons in the neighboring CONT
nent are opposite from ours. Roses
have their blooming spree there in
october instead of June.
South American gardens are en-
closed by hedge, wire or iron fences.
Families without dogs depend on
tero-tero, cranelike birds, who
scream shrill 'tero-tero" if a
stranger attempts to trespass.
Spanish homes, Mrs. Dickens not
ad ISav- nm fiOc ,,oo,oty an,,iY10oI !,
glass roofs which can be rolled over
them for protection during the
rainy seasons.
Gardens Have characteristics.
German gardens are characterized
by statuary and garden gnomes,
French and Italian gardens by their
formal arrangements. The South
American gardens derived their
first heritage from Indian culture,
then from the Spanish, which
brought the traditions of the Moors
and Persians.
Mrs. Dickens showed motion pic
lures of her gardens at Buenos
Aires and Santiago.
Tropical gardens in Rio Janiero,
travellers claim, rival the famous
ones of Calcutta. They are known
for the variety of fruits and flowers,
tranSplanted there by the world
wide immigrants.
Mrs. Dickens garden at Santiago
was freshened by the water brought
from mountain streams through
irrigation bitches. On certain days
of the week, home owners are per-
mitted to open shutters in their ir-
rigation bitches, which let in a
flood of water from the channel in
the street.

Carlyle and at Dundrennan and 9TH

CARLYLE and at Dundrennan and 9TH
er castles.
After Is years she was at last
brought to Fotheringay, in the
heart of England. She was brought
to trial. She was in the prime of
life, and her fortitude at her death
enlisted the sympathy of even her
worst enemies. She was entombed
at Peterborough cathedral with
great pomp. "Sic transit gloria
mundi." Her tomb there is empty
but eloquent still.
Her son, now James VI Of Scot
land, became King James | of Eng
land. He is the one who secured
for us what is called the King
James, or authorized edition, of the
Bible. One of the first acts Of the
new king was to bring the body of
his mother from Peterborough to
Westminster Abbey The bodies of
the two great queens, who were so
distant in affection, now lie very
close together Not more than ten
long steps bring you from the side
CT Mary to the side Of Elizabeth.
No spot in the Abbey claims so
much attention.
Last summer I visited all these
places mentioned above, and stud
led the history Of the two queens.
and | admit the study becomes more
fascinating than ever AT last
visited Fotheringay, or the place
where the castle once stood Not
one stone is left upon another.
Why? The answer was soon as
certained Soon after I learned
that her son, when he came to pow
er, ordered the utter destruction of
Fotheringay castle.
The career of Mary, I repeat, is
one of the most singular, varied,
and mysterious. She, all her life
long, the object of a love and hon.
age that stirred the hearts Of
France and Britain alike. was also
the object of a fear, contempt and
hatred that stirred the whole of
Europe. The history Of the world
cannot be written without the myth
ical story Of Helen Of Troy, or the
all-too-real story Of Mary, Queen Of
Scots.

MAKES APPEAL FOR JUSTICE

In the following article T. w
Iolbert makes an appeal for JUS
lice ia behalf Of his race. He warns
the colored people that Bill Borah-
ism is an enemy to that justice. He
fa9ors the reelection Of Robert T.
Seereat and Vic Donahey:
Tnasmuch as it seems evident
that some administration leaders
seem bent or amending the consti-
tuition Of the United States in order
CAS- they say, or would impress) to
keep in pace with modern and
rapid moving progressive civiliza-
tion, we as a race are highly con-
cerncd in some Of the provisions in
the constitution, which have never
been put in force or execution,
when such execution would have
contributed materially to the negro
citizen, besides depositing that long
fought for and most unreasonably
deferred ''justice and equity" on
his door steps.
When the "Costigan Anti Lynch
Bill was UP for enactment, we as
an Interested people were asking
for nothing more than the enact
ment of law whose fundamental
principle was elected from the
strain of that all-time most ia
nous declaration ever uttered by
man. Standing upon golgotha
and in commemoration of the deed
and spot, Lincoln said, ''we can not
consecrate, we cannot hallow this
spot, but the ones who gave their
last full measure of devotion have
hallowed it far above our power to
add or detract."
We are careful not to forget that
emblematic statement.
After the war and bIood-shed, we
have always striven to maintain a
perpetuity of liberty and the per-
suits OF happiness, as per the man
dates Of the constitution.
| hope the good citizens of Ohio,
regardless Of race or party, will re
member how bitterly Bill Borah, a
likely presidential aspirant, oppos-
ed the ''Anti-Lynch Bill" which
bill if enacted would have BEN
Gifted the negro race morally, eco
nomically and Intellectually; which
bill would neither call for the re-
vision of the constitution nor the
annexation of any amendment
thereto; but instead, would give to
him only the rights therein in
scribed. Isn't it fair? Were we
not represented with the founders
Of the nation, who established it?
Did we not contribute to the COST
economically, and with blood? Are
we not among those today who up
hold and defend it's integrity?
take this medium of thanking
the Hon. Robert T. Secrest and the
Hon. Vic Donahey, for a fair and
impartial representation, and feel
sure of their splendid cooperation
when this bill is re-introduced.
Thank you.--F. w. Holbert.

that today the wooded area on the
farms of Ohio (namely, 3,158,882
acres) is practically what it was in
1920.
This trend will probably continue
for a time under the present pro-
gram of water conservation and
erosion control and better farming
methods until point of stability is
reached, where all land is utilized
under the type Of management best
suited to it. That this point is not
yet reached is shown by the con-
siderable areas of Ohio that are still
seriously eroding, due to the culti-
vation or pasturing of non-agricul-
tural lands.

in the government of the great en-
pire. 1t is believed that the gra-
cious character and noble service OF
recent kings and queens have tend
ed much to cement the far-flung
dominions and democracies togeth-

not exist.

it was first enacted here at the re-

es, clothed with language which had
mystical faith in prayer. When
dark days were on, Lincoln found
the way to the infinite by the gate
of prayer. His intercessions took
upon themselves the characteristics
of the Christian saint. He prayed
until he had the consciousness that
what he prayed for would be grant
ed him. Thirdly, he had pro-
found sense of the souls immortali-
ty In his own life he had too many
mystical experiences, too many rev.
elations upon his spiritual con-
sciousness, to not believe that there
were great sections of spiritual in
fluence operating in the life of faith
full men which cannot be accounted
for by the furctioning of mans
physical organism. He believed in
the soul as dwelling in the body. He
believed that when the house of this
tabernacle passed away, we have
the house net made with hands
eternal in the heavens"

Census Shows Increase In Woods

Census Shows Increase I'm WOODS
There has been a large increase
in the area of farm woods in Ohio
in the past five years, as shown by
recently issued Census figures. In
1880 there were 2,773,629 acres Of
woods in Ohio while on January i,
1885, the wooded area had increas-
ed to 3.158,882 acres, an increase Of
nearly Il per cent in 5 years.
Since the total land in farms in
creased only per cent, woods in
crease becomes more significant Of
the trend towards better manage
ment Of the farms. Farmers are
putting the non-agricultural por-
tions Of the land back into forests,
partly through planting forest trees
on them and partly by allowing ma
ture to reestablish forest growth
there.
The most significant increase is
that Of the protected woods area,
ment of Forestry at the Ohio Ex-
pertinent Station. The woods area
which is not protected from live
stock increased 1916 per cent, and
the protected woods, 20.5 per cent.
Out Of the IS counties in the State,
sc showed an increase in the pro-
tected woods area, and % of these
also showed q decrease in the area
of pastured woods.
During the past % years, the
wooded area Of the farms in Ohio
has made some important changes.
In 1910, there were 3,285,376 acres
OF woods on the farms, in 1920 this
had decreased to 3,198, ,929, in 1925
a further decrease brought the
wooded area to 2,827,493 acres, and
in 1880 the low point was reached
namely, 2,773,629 acres. During
the past years the trend has been
sharply in the other direction, 50
