In the level stretch of lawn before 
the terrace wall with its succession 
of pink flowers lies this oblong pool. 
Its design and proportions make it a 
little jewel in a restrained setting. 
At the corners stand box specimens. 
Grass creeps up to the stone rim. 
Simplicity of design characterizes the 
details and mass of the setting. 
It is in the garden of Mr. and Mrs. 
Bertram Borden, Oceanic, N. J. 
WATER IN THE 
It is often possible to place the pool so that one comes upon it unexpectedly—behind a wall, 
hidden by a hedge, in an out-of-the-way corner of the garden. For the pool is the garden jewel, 
and it should not be worn with too much ostentation. It should not overshadow in importance 
the general garden scheme, however important a factor in that scheme it may be. The charm 
of the little pool here, which was designed by Harry T. Lindeberg for Mr. and Mrs. Paid A. Moore, 
Convent, N. J., lies in the simplicity of its design and the unusual corner in which it is placed. The 
slender delicacy of the locust trees is reflected in its surface. Lilies spread on the water. The 
rim is brick laid down to the level of the grass
