THE TWO GARDENS 
There are always two gardens—the garden in full sunlight, 
when every flower and tree limb silhouettes distinctly, and 
the wraithed garden seen in the white mists of dawn, the 
mauves of dusk or late on summer nights patterned over 
with silver from the moon. For the beauty of color watch 
the garden in sunlight; for the beauty of subtle tones and 
delicate atmosphere study the wraithed garden. Such is 
this view in the garden at the home of Herbert N. Straus, 
Red Bank, New Jersey, showing a glimpse of the broad 
stone step leading up to the tree-shadowed terrace. 
The landscape architect was Martha Brookes Hutche¬ 
son and the associate architect F. Burrall Hoffman, Jr.
