Given a garden wall, moss covered, a maid and a chair, it would be an ex acting nature indeed, that would de mand more. Of course, that arch op timistic pessimist, Omar Khayyam, de manded much more, too much, in fact. What reasonable person would want: a book of verses underneath the bough, a jug of wine, a loaf of bread along with the "thou" he craved to sing to him in the wilderness which then "were paradise enow." On the one hand we hear that ro mance is aeau, anu yu me uluc* uauu that real gardens are becoming a thing of the past. The missing ele ment is none other than the garden wall. And now that the possibilities of this fraudulent old barrier again have been brought to light, the truly old fashioned garden should imme diately come into its own once iiiore. Much of the wonderrul charm of the lovely and lovable old gardens which have outlived the centuries centres I around sturdy ancient walls and invit \ ing walks. In the early days of Eng j land, when civil wars were constant I iv wflsrin-Er. erarden walls came into be ing as a grim necessity. Of consider able height, and of great thickness, they were designed first to afford pro tection but as time went on, like the ugly duckling in the fairy tale, they became beautiful. These delightful old walls have withstood the ravages of time, mellowing with maturing years, and coloring Deautiruuy wnn the siege of summer's heat and the blast of winter's breath. The fashioning of a garden wall is something more than the laying of stone upon stone. It is complex in its very simplictv. It is a bit of work that demands the skilled hand of an. ^ <$> SOCIETY. <S> A delightful affiair of the week was the card tournament given under the auspices of the Calvin Crozier chap ter, U. D.

The old fashioned garden within walls, is not adapted of course |o all conditions and environments. Every variety of garden fits best in some particular spot, because it there best harmonizes with its surroundings. The sweetness and charm of the secluded fairy spot, walled in from all prying j eyes, is lost unless it be but a sym pathetic part of the larger composi-; tion. i "The garden that is lived in andj loved, whose architectural treatment has developed naturally in response to 1 the growing demand for art out of | doors, and in harmony with the! house and its surroundings, will! achieve far greater success, tnan tne 'show garden,'" writes Phoebe West cott Humphreys. Fortunate, indeed, is the setting which provides a spot that may bf enclosed in posey laden walls, an old fashioned garden nestling within. Here, hemmed in from the world without, the noises of the distant city, are subdued. The subtle fragrance of the flowers hovers over the secluded spot, and yet it seems to hold com munion with the farthest star. Of such is peace.
