A corollary to that Indictment Is that, not content with the destruction of the boont.es of the outdoors, we Lave duo allowed our commercialism to mar the beauty of such nntural landscapes as do remain with a variety of artificial additions whose ugliness cannot bo excused even upon grounds of utility. Huge billboards, signs and posters, nil erected to the honor and glory of the great god Advertising, deface the countryside and grute upon the sensibilities of those who would look with pleasure upon vista of trees end flowers and green gross end flowing streams. And then to complete the picture we have added another eyesore Uwn the face of Mother Nature the jrajelde stand. The dilapidation and general hideousness of most of these structures need no description here They are all too familiar to anyone who has ever token a motor trip to any part of the country. Now, however, there seems to be some relief I from this situation In sight. About a year ago, while Mrs. John D. Rockefeller. Jr was touring through New England, she was Impressed by the . trashloela of the refreshment stands scattered at close Intervals along the roadside and she decided that here was a condition not merely to be deplored, but to lie remedied. Upon her return to New York she set about applying the remedt by placing ct the disposal of the Art Centre of New Tork the sum of $3,000 o be used ns the -foundation font campaign t Improve Hie appear' ance of our national highways In at least one respect. The Art Centre, tn with the Amec lean Civic association of Washington. D. C thereupon announced a aeries of four compctl tlons to stimulate the Improvement In the appearance of these wayside stands.

Erected from nsed wood at the low cost of barely $300., It achieved a charm and dtgnlty with tta dean white paint, odd angled, large windows, and Its comfortable white benches. Its display was dia-- ' erectly, yet temptingly arranged, so that signs'! tijforra the motorist that It was a wayside stand - offensive-lookin- well-advise- ma'll-orde- were conveniently dispensed with. The prize winners were by no means sl$e. On th contrary almost every type waa represented It Is the opinion of the Judges that there ts no need for roadside stands to be stereotyped, standardized, or conventional. On the other baud, obvious freakishness Is fhtnkly discouraged. For Instance, the winner of the fourth prize might well have been ridiculous had It been placed In New York state. Rut agatnst Its California background Its low, thatched roof of dried palm leaves was most natural and assisted It to blend well with the landscape. This principle of har moid ting with the landscape was considerably stressed by the Judges. Rustic cabins are charm Ing along thickly wooded roads, but not la the city. Labored quaintness can be carried to ex tremea. Rut simplicity and cleanliness fit well Into any purroundlngs. A log cabin stand won the sixth prize because of Its artistic arrange incut In a rustic landscape' setting. This stand Is owned by Miss Louise Jacques, a young school gtrL7TLU young, lady showed a 'sensitive con tclousnoe of the type of stand that would fit welFlnto a background of tangled pines and firs. Needless to say. It was also a eery Inexpensive construction. Economy Is a point well stressed by the Judge of these contests. As a result of the first com petition,. It la definitely proved that charming, efficient wayside stands can be built for very smalt sums, and. Incidentally, that It is Just as Inexpensive to build an attractive stand as a g shack. Some of the stands were built for as little as $75 It ts possible that one of the great obstacles that would be encountered by those wltu a broader civic responsibility would be in Impressing upon proprietors of roadside oases that the difference between a thing of beauty and a thing of horror ts not to be measured la dollars and cents, la short, not la expense of the pocket, but In expens of taste. . Conspicuous among the evidences of good tast that the Judges of th first competition held up to approval was the discreet distribution of advertising matter. In no case did a prize winner flaunt posters or signs of great magnitude. A simple shingle with the ame of the stand painted thereorw aeetned to suffice for those whose sense of beauty and fitness had created stands of sufficient distinction to carry off awards. lo this case the selectivity of the Judges may well serve as a criticism of modem display methods, as applied to aome of our rural refresh ment booths. Alun Bement, director of th Art Centre of New York, remarked recently In hla talk to the Worcester Womens club. -- We have no idea that building a few stands or the offering .of a few prizes Is going: to do everything, but If we can getnll the people In the United States to thinking about thl over a period of two 'orthree years. we will make the kind of public opinion that will react against the bad stands." The art director la sponsoring Bound psychology. Public opinion, that elnslve but very potent quality, can be recast overnight If a sufficient number of front page headlines are hurled at the render, or If a auflk clent number of radio speakers hold forth at length on a given subject, or even If a popular song Is written anent a certain theme. But the opinion so rapidly metamorphosed la equally R. able to sudden reversal or languishing death. The public opinion that count ts the result of experience. Get the people to use thetr eyes, say, In substance, Mr. Rement and their critical faculties will slowly begin to benefit Whether fids applies to the architectural embellishment affected by the sellers of hot dogs," or the Individuals choice of cravats, public opinion can be so educated as to distinguish good tasto from multicolored burlesque, and once eo will forthwith exercise Its privilege of according either support or nonsupport The Interest In this movement for Improving the appearances of our roadsides Is by no means confined to the refreshment stand owner themselves. Immediately the announcement of these competitions was mode public, a large number of both Individuals and corporations came forward to offer their felicitations and their The work Is now firmly Intrenched with firm who look forward to seeing results In a short time of their enterprise and assistance. The flrst competition showed definitely that there are a great many people interested tn the purpose, ,and a great many wayside stand owner anxlou to take pride In the appearance of their establishments. The second competition will go further and lay the groundwork for a definite plan of building more attractive stands throughout th country, by. offering substantial prizes for archl- tectural drawing of practical and attractive stands.- Ten prize re being offered for two type of refreshment tand plana, one type being of the stand which I simply a refreshment booth; the - other type being of m combined stand and gamine filling station. Five- - drawings plans of each type will be selected by the Judges, making In all ten eward which shall range from the flrst prize of $300, downward. As with the first eompetl- -' tlon. economy of construction will be an Important factor. Those drawings which will in the most . satisfactory manner combine charm and efficiency with tnexpenslveness will be the cholw f tj, Judges. This must be practical and econonrral. neat and sensible.
