SWAYING TREE TOPS 



hopping about continually, flirting 

 tail or wings, unable to spend a quiet 

 moment. Robin is self -controlled, 

 and though unheard, he is making 

 observations. When he flies he knows 

 where he intends to go. Always is 

 this certainty attained as a result of 

 self-control. 



Does human life lack the vigor of 

 certainty? May we not say that it 

 has come to this condition through 

 purposeless activity the lack of the 

 midday observation hours the hours 

 of control? I am convinced that man 

 needs above all things to observe and 

 to think. The tendency to-day is to 

 " do " things, in the sense of seeing 

 hurriedly, of getting over so much 

 territory before the time limit expires 

 on the ticket. This is done instead
