in his introduction tOc . 



The Nature 

 Library 



says: "To add to the resources of 

 one's life — think how much that 

 means! To add to those things that 

 aake U3 more at home in the world: 



: ; ^ that help guard us against ennui and stag- 

 nation ; that invest the country with new 

 interest and enticement; that make every 

 Tpalk in the fields or woods an excursion into 

 a land of unexhausted treasures; that make the 

 returning seasons fill us with expectation ari^ 'de- 

 light; that make every rod of ground like the page of 

 f booK in which new and strange things may be read; 

 £ short those things that help keep us fresh and sane and 

 5<oung, and make us immune to the strife and fever of the world." 

 These are the words of the " Mature Poet," and admirably do they 

 express what the ten superb volumes of The Nature Library do for their pos- 

 ters. Every day adds largely to the number of homes, schools, and libraries
