The judges of the 1917 contes t forthe bes t k ep t and mos t a tt ra ct iv ey ards i n Narberth, have finished th!'irwork fo r t he yea r, a nd a brief summ ary of their findings may be ofv al ue to b oth to those who won thecoveted prizes and honorable mentionsand those Who did not, and will perhaps eXPlain Why appar en tl y wel lkept and wel l-ar ranged yards did no tmeet w it h t he approval of th e judges.Scored by points fol' clean appe!lranCe a great many yards would have

received the required fifty points andthis fact is indeed gratifying whenone considers that t he c ar e of manyo f t he se y ar ds is undertaken by thehouseholder himself or p er ha ps h iswife b ot h of whom h av e a ls o man ym o r ~ duties to perform. I t showsmost certainly that community spiriti s n ot d ormant i n N ar be rth . Unfortunately from the judges' point orview, which I feel as the correct one,as all the judges ~ r competent alll1disinterested men whose so le businessIt is to p er fe ct pl an s f or beautifuland at tract ive plantings. t he w rongi de a s eems to p re va il a s to w ha t COD-stituted an attractive yard.I n a rr an gi ng t he i nt er io r of ourhouse we pa y a tt en tio n t o a def in itecolOr scheme and genera l ar rangement. of furn iture , etc., with a vIewo f mak ing ou r h ome p le as in g t o usand o thers . By proper arrangementand t yp e o f furni tu re . we obtain theidea of space In perhaps a small roomBy proper b angi ng o f OUr pictures,each in a different light, we bring outth e beau ti es the artists i nt ende d toconvey. By our fioor and wal l coverings we bring the needed touch otwarmth or coolne3s to effect thewhole. If an added touch Is needed, avase of f lowers, a bit of shining brassor o ther ornament will br ing the desired effect, and make our home onewe ar e always glad to return to.The same idea is true to a s g re at a nex ten t wi th our yards and I am s ur e

would and could be carried out to asgreat success were the public awaret ha t i t could as eas i ly be done. Possibly it will require a s ligh t s tudy ofthe des'ired t rees. sh rubs and flowersin o rde r to obtain t he best results,but what in the world Is more interest ing? Whether your house is newor old, just blot from your memoryt he exi st in g p lant in g and begin ast hough no p lant in g existed.Fi x th e points of t he compass Inyour mind f or a ll p la nt s respond tothei r part icular choice of e x p o s u T t ~ .t hough thi s does not mean t he y mayn ot t hr iv e at different exposures.Next, retain in your memory or onpaper, the views yoU wish to procure,bearing in mind that a view of ycmrneighbor's yard may b e fine a nd n otcost a cent, s o why i s a hedge . Al'lo,look a ll ab out to see if there are nol on g v is ta s o n neighboring propertywhich may become yours to view, I ft here are, keep t.hem by not shutt ingthem out by your own plan ting whichmay no t be as beautiful.
