FOREWORD
^Sk^^-^TN"^^ IFE minus its aesthetic values would be barren indeed.
'1^^ Though we may often forget the fact, beauty is as essen'
and happiness as are food and
and clothing.
Fortunately, beauty appears in
many forms in music, in painting, in sculpture, in Hterature, and in a thousand glories of Nature. Not only
are we moved at twilight by the rose colors of the western sky, or by the
sparkling stars that sprinkle the vault of heaven at night, but deep in our
beings there is a love for growing things, for living objects that in grace
ful forms and lovely colors and with sweet odors spring miraculously
from the warm bosom of the soil. Even a single blossom, growing in a
clay pot on a window sill, has opened to a weary soul a glimpse of
tial
for our well-being
shelter
—
heaven.
In the exhibition of
A
Century of Progress, there
is
an unparalleled
display of the advancements in architecture and the triumphs of science,
not only in their physical forms but also in their varied apphcation to the
arts of living.
But these things do not compass man's interests or entirely cover the fields of notable progress.
The Horticultural and Floricultural Exhibition measures up to the
very high levels attained by science, invention, engineering and industry
as exemphfied at
Century of Progress International Exposition. This
great exhibition is dedicated to the Horticultural Industry in all its
A
branches.
Here have been gathered the choicest blossoms, finest trees, shrubs
accessories, weaving them together into a dehghtful picture designed
to give you something to take away with you as an enduring possession,
and
that intangible something, not of leaf nor of bud, but the infinite happi-
which comes in an association of these things. If it shall have added
your life, if it shall give you enjoyment and inspiration, then our
efforts shall not have been in \-ain and the objective and ideals of this
Exhibition shall remain monumental to its accompHshment.
