Show GETTING RACK TO NATURE. Ask any of the men In your acquaintance how many kinds of flowers they can name In the nearest near-est garden. Then ask yourself. Try to reach back into the storehouse of your brain and drag therefrom there-from the discarded knowledge that came to you when, as a youth, you helped Mother plant the flowers In the garden at the side of the house; or when on your way to school you helped yourself to the best the neighboring gardens had to offer, Knew just what you were getting, and took a boquet of sise and variety to your best girl. Flowers haven't been Uurbanked beyond recognition recog-nition in these years that you and I" have been getting old. They are much the same as they were In the good old days; they only look different because you have grown away from them. H It Is an even bet that not one man In a nun- ! H dred can go down to Liberty park and name ha?f ifl of the varieties of flowers that are grown there. H Not one man in a thousand could name the varlc- H ties of trees. , H 1 i |
