Administration Avenue on the west separates the central group from the Palace of Fine Arts. Along the bay shore is the Marina, and between it and the Esplanade are the Yacht Harbor and the lawns of the North Gardens. Surrounding all these buildings, filling the courts and bordering the avenues, are John McLaren's lovely gardens.
During that discussion over Ian McLaren's creed, in which so many people were interested last winter, Chancellor McCracken, of the University of New York, published a letter, in which he referred to the Apostles' Creed as written eighteen hundred years ago. It took my breath away when I read it. I wondered, Could the chancellor of a great University possibly be ignorant of the facts?
"Carl," said he, "God has given you back to us. I told mother that he would, and he has." The pleasure of Bishop McLaren's visit was plainly lessened by the illness of the young secretary. The family of his host were all anxious, and the members of the faculty were visibly affected.
The Exposition a product of co-operation of the arts The landscape made part of the scheme Block grouping of palaces and courts Plan of the buildings McLaren's wonders in gardening Succession of flowers throughout the Exposition Changes overnight Unique wall of living green.
I took him along with me and had to caution him several times as he is tall and the parapets in places were low. We went the whole line of the trenches. When we came to Captain McLaren's section one of our men was firing and I asked him what was the matter. He said he was firing at a German who was digging in a sap-head at the salient opposite, about four hundred yards off.
The entire city side of the South Gardens is bordered by a wondrous wall of living green, not a hedge, but truly a wall, the most surprising of all McLaren's inventions.
"Judge Thurston's son, Bishop McLaren's boy, and another by the name of Blair." "Well," said Job, "I don't believe they were drowned. I believe that the so-called yacht was nothing but an old tub that they bought for a trifle and burned, and then in disguise they left for foreign parts; in fact, I believe I know where one of them is."
Joe took the hint, and with march and song, he halted his men in front of the farmhouse, and setting McLaren down, took off his cap, an example which was immediately followed, and they gave three tremendous cheers for the new president of the Monastery and dispersed. Immediately, grasping McLaren's arm, Quintin said: "We must find Tom and learn whether he has cabled to London."
The daffodil show lasted several weeks until, over night, it was replaced by acres of yellow tulips blooming above thick mats of pansies. This magic change was merely the result of McLaren's forethought. The daffodils had all been set at the right time to bloom when the Exposition opened. The pansies were set with them, but were unnoticed beneath the taller daffodils.
