A THING OF BEAUTY IS
JUOY fOREVER
Full Text of tho Address Delivered Ity Joaquin Miller at the
Florence Rhododendron Festival.
B"
EAUTY IS civilization's god of
Idolatry. Civilization began
when the adoration of beauty be
gan. Beauty of soul, character, that
cleanliness which Is next to godli
ness, is oi course the supreme
beauty; but we are hero to celebrate
material beauty; to celebrate that
which is "pleasant to the sight."
Almost In tho very beginning of
the Bible the Sth verse of the second
chapter it is written "And the Lord
God planted a garden eastward in
Eden in which Ho caused to grow
every tree that is pleasant to the
sight and good for food." Please
observe that the trees that are pleas
ant to the sight camo first, were
planted first by the hand of God in
the Garden of Eden. Tho trees good
for food came last. Let this bo
borne in mind forever. The tree
that is pleasant to tho sight stands
first In favor with the Creator of this
wondrously beautiful world. And
let us remember always that he who
plants a tree that is "pleasant to the
sight" plants for every one who has
tho capacity or the culture to appre
ciate it. It belongs to the good God
who planted it in the garden of
Eden. The tree that is good for food
we plant for only ourselves.
A generation ago I heard a great
sermon at Geneva, preached from
tho text quoted, in which the learned
divine asserted that this ancient
Greek rose tree, rhododendron, was
surely one of the trees pleasant to
the sight, and I truly believe that
this tree, this flower we here cele
brate has come directly down to us
from tho Garden of Eden. It is the
most universal flower on the face of
the globe. As for its beauty, with
lifted face its rich, its rosy, laughing
lips speak forever in every land only
the language of love and beauty.
This Rose tree, not higher than
your knee, Is the Alpine rose of
Switzerland. Ten thousand feet
above the sea, the Swiss Alps blaze
and gleam in tho sun almost up to
the snows of Mt. Blanc with this
Alpine Rose. Yet on tho mountains
of Ceylon, under the path of the sun,
this same rose tree of tho Garden of
Eden, attains to nearly one hundred
feet in height and is used by the
British there as Hiram of Tyro used
the cedars of Lebanon. On tho
banks of the -Jordan where It com
panions with tho llllles of tho valley,
It is known as the Rose of Sharon.
If ever tree or flower reserved rev
erence or honor because of ancient
place and pedigree, surely this
storied Greek Roso tree that is said
by learned men to have come down
to us out of the Garden of Eden, is
that tree and flower. I congratulate
you with all my heart for having
chosen this flower, this flower from
your fields, from your door yards.
I honor the giant young state of
Washington for having the wisdom
and tho rare good taste to make it
hor banner flower. In the, great
park of the National Capitol you see
this flower in all the hues of the rain
bow, by the streams, up tho steeps
and deep down in the arroyos, plant
ed by the hand of the Infinite away
back in the morning of tho world
when He said "Let there be light."
On Mt. Shasta, up against the snow
line, this flower is as fair and white
as the llllles under foot and the
trunk of the tree Is so tall and
strong that it is or was when I was
a lad, a sheltering place for elk In
time of storm. On the Alleghany
mountains It is a hardy little tree
and the flower is blue, white and
purple. In truth, if there is a cli
mate that this flower has not in
habited since its first planting in
Eden or a color of any kind that it
has not exulted in, I do not know
where it is or what it is.
Tho real truj, genuine civilization
of California began only a few years
ago when tho ladles there decided
to hold a flowur festival and asked
all tho world to see. It was then
that California began to see beauty,
to talk beauty, to build beauty.
Tho civilization of Oregon began
last year at tho glorious celebration
of roses. It was tho most inspiring,
refining, civilizing sight I over be
held; and I have wandered far and
wldo. I havo been spending the last
month along with great battleships,
and all honor to these noble univer
sities for tho education of our com
ing captains of tho sea, but that
Portland roso festival was more to
me than all tho battleships of earth.
For only beauty was to bo seen
there, only refinement was to bo met
with there, only lovers of tho beaut
fill wero gathered thorn: nnd n
CI
gooa can como or bucu scenes '"'i
pjrxri
nmt.
are pleasant to tho sight.
You toll me you cannot read the
book of beauty as I do. Did you
ever try? How long did It take you
to learn your alphabet, and yet you
hope to read the book of nature at
sight. No, you cannot. This nnrt.
less, unbound book of nature is truly
the book of books and only when wo
have done with life, do wo truly
begin to understand it . Tho man
or woman who truly loves and Hve3
beauty, gets twice, thrice as much
out of life as others. Not only that
but a true lover of nature outlives
all others. The longest lived peo
ple on earth are the astronomers.
They not only see the beauty of the
earth but of tho heavens also.
Michael Angelo, In his old age was
found in tho twilight alone leaning
on a big block of marble, which they
still show you In Rome. As he was
led away he burst Into tears. Being
questioned why, he answered "Oh,
but I saw such a beautiful form
away down there in that rough block
of marble that I weep because that
I am no longer young, young and
strong enough to reveal and glvo it
to the world. There Is not a rock or
block anywhere that has not its hid
den form of .beauty, only we have
gone after strange Gods. We want
only tho trees that are good for food.
We have forgotten till this day, this
hour, "the trees that are pleasant to
the sight." Of all the nations that
have marched across tho pages of
history, only the lovers of beauty
have lived. The Greeks loved beau
ty; they lived beauty and so It is they
still and will continue to live as long
as history can hand down their
love of beauty in story and in song.
The Jews loved "he lilies of the
field, the roses of Sharon and so they
too have lived and their Bible along
with the story of Greece In the liter
ature of civilization. Tho ancient
Druid Priests loved and adored the
mighty oak trees; and out of this
love of strength and majesty grew
a mighty nation. But what of all
tho nations that have perished? Dig
down into the ruins of India, Egypt,
Mexico and you find only hideous
idols, monstrous images as ugly as
men could conceive. Greece only
of all the nations, Greece who glori
fied and sang and celebrated their
rose tree, has lived, still lives In her
images of beauty. China the oldest
nation In history, the Inventor of
gunpowder, the printing-press and
the mariner's compass has perished
or is perishing from tho pages of
history because she set up in her
temples a monstrous Joss, a monster
as hideous as she could conceive,
and burned incense before it. And
so the Chinaman for all his industry
and invention and art continues to
be a helpless heathen, a heathen who
dedicates his temples to hideous
monsters instead of to things of
beauty, as here today,
Tears of pity Tor the man or wo
man who will not accept this truth.
"And God looked upon all He had
made and behold it was very good."
I am afraid of the man who does not
love flowers. I am afraid of tho man
or woman who does not seo some
beauty in everything. For every
thing under the path of tho Bun Is
beautiful or trying to bo beautiful.
The loathsome caterpillar is simply
an unborn butterfly. In California
the butterfly is called the mariposa,
the Virgin Mary's flower.
Shakespeare says "that man
who hath not music in his soul and
Is not moved by the harmony of
sweet sounds is fit for treason, Btra
tagem and spoils." And bo I say
again God's pity for any person, "who
does not lovo beauty. Sucb a life
is a. failure, such a person is Indeed
fit for treason stratagem and snoils.

Hero at our feet surges tho sea of all

Fortunate Isles?
You sail and you seek for the For
tunate Isles,
The old Greek Isles ot the yellow
bird's song;
Then steer straight on through the
watery miles,
Straight on, straight on, and you
can't go wrong,
Nay, not to tho left, nay not to the
right,
But on, straight on and tho Isles
are in sight,
Tho old Greek Isles where the yellow
birds sing
And life lies girt in a golden ring.
Nay, never look back, those level
grave stones,
They were landing steps, they were
steps unto thrones
Of glory for souls that have gone
before,
And have set white feet on the un
tunato shore.
And what are tho names of the For
tunate Isles?
Why beauty and lovo and a large
content.
Aye, these are the Isles of the watery
miles
That God let down from the firma
ment; Beauty and love and a true soul's
trust,
Your forehead to God though your
feet in the dust
Duty to man and to God meanwhlles.
And these ah! these are the For
tunate Isles.

H. C. Breckenridge Writes
Entertainingly of Canadian
Development.
Port Esslngton, June 1, 1908.
British Columbia.
To tho Editor of The Times,
I take this means of letting you
all know that I have arrived at this
port after a very pleasant and un
eventful trip. Wo came via steamer
Breakwater, Marshfleld to Portland;
via Northern Pacific railway, Port
land to Tacoma; via steamer India
napolis, Tacoma to Seattle; via
steamer Iroquois, Seattle to Vancou
ver, B. C, and via steamer Vadso,
Vancouver to this port. The scenery
was beautiful all tho way especially
tho trip all the way from Tacoma
north as it is all Inland water ex
cepting about a threo hours run on
Queen Charlotte Sound. Tho lar
gest steamer afloat can travel
through these channels at any stage
of tide and somo places a person
can almost jump ashore. Tho
weather was very pleasant on tho
whole.
Wo could not settle at Princo
Rupert as the Grand Trunk Pacific
Railway Company aro making a
new survey and restaklng tho site
for tho city which will not be com
pleted until September 1st when the
lots will be plnced on tho market.
I believe that Princo Rupert will
be a very large and prosperous city
as It has everything in storo to help
it become such. Tho harbor Is na
turally equipped for tho largest
vessels afloat to como in at any timo
or tide and find shelter and anchor
ago. The land lays low for a short
dlstanco from tho water and then
slopes gradually about a mile tp tho
baso of a mountain situated in tho
centre of tho Island. The city slto
is situated on Kalen Island, about
20 miles north of the mouth of the
Skeena river. Tho railway is being
graded and work is quite brisk along
the lino of grade but there is not
much work for newcomers at Prince
Rupert as there was quite a rush of
people who went thoro about a month
ago and they have not scattered out
much yet, although things will be
good thoro when the lots aro put on
sale. Thoy have about 2,000 acres
of the townslto cleared now and will
double that by September 1st. I do
not know what lots will sell for but
will notify you lator on when I find
out myself. Thoro is a great deal
of traffic to tho interior at present
as navigation is open to Hazelton,
150 miles up the Skeena river and
from that point Is whore tho best
chances aro for homeseekers on ac
count of the good Btretches of wheat
and stock land. I expect to havo
nows soo), from the now placer min
ing country on Flndlay river, which
has proved very rich so far. Will
send more news later on if you can
sparo spaco for tho same. Wo aro
all well and getting along nicely.
I have no more news of interest
at present so will close, wishing you
all health and prosperity, I remain,
Respectfully,
H. C. BRECKENRIDGE,
