sand words. One five-minute stop, 
watching the coming in of a mirage 
tide out of the Great Salt Lake, re- 
vealed what took more than 1,500 
words to describe—and then but sketch- 
ily. We saw a small herd of wild 
horses. We met tourists who had come 
so far across that desert waste that 
they were hungry to speak to a human. 
We passed the ruins of the old pony ex- 
press and _ stage-coach stations —in 
themselves historical, tragic, wonder- 
ful. 
Preliminary reading may well in- 
clude two books, the purpose of which 
is to help one see. The book, “Modern 
Painters” by John Ruskin, if faithfully 
studied, will enable a reader of ordi- 
nary intelligence to see the glory of the 
land. I mean the beauty of trees, from 
the buoyant lift of the hemlock branch, 
the curve of the tips of lone oaks and 
maples, to the massed and variegated 
beauty of the lodgepole pine or of hard- 
wood, or of the scattered junipers 
‘against the tawny dessicated moun- 
tains. Literally, this is what Ruskin’s 
“Modern Painters” teaches a reader. 
They teach us not only the beauty of 
the daisy and golden rod, not only the 
magnificence of the green timber, but 
the things that are the majesty, the 
wonder and the splendor of the moun- 
tains. Ruskin wrote of the Alps and 
the hills of Europe. But when one has 
read “Modern Painters” with patience 
and eagerness, even the tumult of 
geology, the peaks of the Rockies whose 
names one may never know, will re- 
main for all time in the memory for 
their lustre, their color, their shape and 
their overwhelming size. Ruskin en- 
ables one to put words and definiteness
