Fossil Plants Saved in
Region of Black Hills
National Museum Is to Be
Erected in South Dakota.
New Haven, Conn .--Fossils of one
of the richest petrified forests ever
uncovered soOlrwill be arranged in
a national museum to be built in
the southern Black Hill4 of South
Dakota.. v
Prof. G. R. Wieland of Yale uni
versity, international authority on
fossil plants, said the museum will
be erected in the center of an area
which includes the most complete
of all North American petrified for
ests. He has fully investigated the
area, which he early filed under the
homestead laws to insure protec
tion for the fossils. He later sur
rendered his equity when congress
voted it a national monument.
In the area were found formations
120,000,000 years old or more dat
ing back to the age of dinosaurs.
Included in the discoveries were
petrified "flowering cycads" whose
modern relatives are the rare Chi
nese maiden-hair tree and the so-
called "sago palm."

Without it the visitor would not see
anything but the scenery. "After
all," he said, "the visitor need not
go there, as many have done, ex
pecting quickly to find and take
away valuable specimens. Except
for some accidental fragment mean
ingless to the layman, nothing is to
be seen at the surface fulfilling the
untrained conception of petrified for
ests.**
Recently, with the aid of CCC
help, quarrying brought to light
more than a ton of additional speci
mens. These were found just as
they were left in their final resting
place of a hundred million years
ago.
"Uneroded, unbroken, of specific
type, nothing approaching such a
collection in one place has ever
been seen before in the course of
the even hundred years during
which the cycadeoids have been
known as fossils." said Wieland.
"Rightly displayed in the field mu
seum planned for the monument,
this material alone will afford a sin
gularly fine exhibit
"There Is a wealth of lesser

Carved on the stone of the "Sing
ing Tower" in Florida, a memorial
to Edward Bok, are the lines:
"The kiss of the sun for pardon.
The song of the birds for mirth:
One is nearer God's heart In a garden
Than anywhere else on earth."
Music, art, and literature are ca
pable of expressing not only the
beautiful but also
the impure
thoughts. Not so
with flowers.
However we may
define the nature
of that source of
power which
gives the flowers
their strength
and beauty, we

late soul of the country gentleman
of his time. \ln that day of por
traits there was no more perfect
portrait of the English squire than
one of Chippendale’s chairs; hand
some, upstanding, stout in the legs,
broad in the seat, straight in the
back and square in the shoulders.**
Chippendale was certainly the
most versatile and prolific of fur
niture makers, and his designs
have a distinguishing individuality
about them that survives genera
tions of copying. The first important
worker in mahogany, a new wood
when he came first to London, b#
took his inspiration where he found
it—from the Queen Anne psriod,
from the continentals, from ths
heathen Chinese. But always his
hand upon it shaped it to his own
originality. Sometimes ha usad a
straight squared leg; sometimes he
used s carved cabriole leg ending
in the ball and claw foot. Hs used

Silently does it work; almost effort
less. H seems. No visible strain,
nor struggls, nor violent exertion:
the lily writes its biography in
noiseless beauty. Whence this free
dom from strain? The answer
comes from the lily itself. It
teaches us the lesson that obedience
is liberty and freedom; disobedi
ence is slavery and death. The lily
obeys law by surrendering itself to
law. It lets nature do her work and
does not try to interfere by self-
induced efforts which defeat natural
purposes. It accepts as its portion
of life, sunlight, heat moisture: and
grows. Its silence of surrendered
life is unbroken even in darkness,

Many lives are stagnant, because
the lesson of surrender hiss never
