HE rectangular plot is typical of gardens throughout the
Tsauntry. Such gardens need to be laid out so that there is
not a monotony of straight lines. Therefore break up part of the design by using curves.
In this design the circular feature accomplishes this To avoid the now popular rose screen, which is usually crected some- where about half-way down the garden, a background has been provided in a green privet hedge.
In front of it roses occupy two narrow borders. To balance these, four rosc-beds are aci in grass round_a_central_figure_er..... sundial.
The lawn fa large enough for games and is surrounded by shrubs and flowers of perennials and annuala to provide colour".
Vegetables and fruit have a place at the end of the garden. Note the short length of green privẹt hødge which completely cuts off from view, when in the flower garden, anything which may be unsightly on the vegetable plot.

The hum of an airplane is haard over head, bringing consternation to The Boss. The plane landı, and a grotesque figure, stops out. It is Cabal.
ARTICLE
Lend me
your
ears.
"IF you are cured," said Dr. Arbuthnot to Swift, "I suggest that you still pretend to be deaf. By that means you may hear as much as you like and answer as little as you please."
But you cannot hear as much as you like. There are a myriad sounds to which our cars are insensitive. You cannot, for instance, hear the footsteps of a walking fly. An amplißer reproduces them...**** boomp... boomp... boomp! Those intervals between the musica! potes of a tap dripping represent notes which are too high for your ears to catch. Your dog can hear them.
Yet hearing is the most highly developed and efficient of our five senses. In spite of much that it misses, the extreme sensitiveness of the human ear is amazing.
Most sources of sound are inefficient. If you elap your hands, only one-thousandth of the energy involved is changed into sound; if 00,000 people shouted together they would produce only enough energy to light
60-watt lamp-bulb.
You have no difficulty however, in picking up the sound of just one person shouting to you. In fact, if you do not suffer from deafness, you prefer him not to shout at all. That's how sensitive your hearing Is.
And in Budapest there is a boy whose hearing is so good lieton hear a pin drop. at twenty yards and distinguish every word sald by people conversing quietly fifly yards away!
Bat ears
The crooners who daily boast to millions of listeners that they can wiggle their cars would be interested to know that this is merely an inherited muscular trick common to man's remote ape-like ancestors- according to Professor Ilussey, in the University of Michigan.
Since those far-off days
cars have developed. In the time of the Egyptians cars stood out almost at right angles to the head, as Egyptian sculpture shows,
During the last few generations the human car has grown larger. This may be caused by the more complicated demands made by civilisation upon hearing. Recruiting records support this theory, for they chow that boys from the towns have better cars than have the boys from country districts.
