Thoughts For The Times
Communing with Nature. ■‘Our complex modern life, especially in our larger centres, gets us running so many times into grooves that we are prone to miss, and sometimes for long pciriud. the all-round completer libWe are led at times almost to forget that tho stars come nightly to the sky or even that there is a sky ; that there are hedgerows and groves where the birds are always singing and where we can lie on our backs and watch the treetops swaying above us. and the clouds floating bv, where one can live with his soul, or as Whitman has put it, where one can loaf and invite his soul.”
