David Grayson 



says 



"Is it not marvellous how 

 full people are of humor, 

 tragedy, passionate, human 

 longing, hopes, fears — if only 

 you can loose theflood gates." 



You will realize how true this is after seeing 



Adventures in Contentment 



of which one reader enthusiastically writes: 



"I am sory the adventues in contentmint is over of cause the 

 real contentmint is still going on with the farmers that is with 

 some of them I was in hopes that they would go on for some 

 time we need a tolstoy in this country to learn young men 

 that labor is holy and the only way to hapeness I want to 

 thank you very much I can see Mr. Wether stuck often and 

 I have .not forgot the Infidele and the Book Agent or the 

 Rector." Extract from letter to David Grayson. 



£^4 ;==£V/ <r„ 



rsm, 



how the author loosens these flood gates in 



Adventures in Friendship 



of which the Outlook says: 



"Adventures in Friendship" is to be commended to all those 

 who imagine that the business of life is to make money; who 

 are absorbed in dealing with things and have missed the way of 

 peace and joy; who rush when they ought to loiter, and are in 

 a fury of action when they ought to be meditating: altogether 

 a delightful book.

My Flower Garden 



shall bloom in a thousand colors. 

 Stareyed daisies, velvety pansies, 

 many hued Asters, golden Coreop- 

 sis, rose and purple Larkspur shall vie 

 therein, poppies unfurl their silken flags. 

 Roses shall run riot, pale lilies lift their 

 faces to the moon, stately Dahlias flaunt 

 their gorgeous tints, Paeonias glitter in sil- 

 very sheen; Iris lift their green spears, the 

 fragrance of Mignonette, Stocks, Violets, 

 Wallflowers, and Jasmine render it honey- 

 sweet. Vines cling to walls and trellis, masses of 

 Sweet Peas dance and laugh in the sunshine. This 

 and much more shall be mine. 



From bushes and poles rich pods of PEAS and BEANS will 

 greet me, succulent beets and carrots will 



My Vegetable Garden 



yield, luscious melons, crisp radishes, melting lettuce, cool 

 cucumbers grow in abundance. To achieve the Best I will
