If eyes were made for 
seeing, 
Then beauty is its own excuse 
for being. 
Hmerson 

MARGARET BEATON 


NEW ERA 
The instinetive and universal 
taste of mankind selects flowers 
for the expression of its finest 
sympathies, their beauty and 
their fleetingness serving to 
make them the most fitting svm- 
bols of those delicate sentiments 
for which language itself seems 
almost too gross a mediun. 
—HTillard
