Eager to See.

“1 have a poem here entitled ‘Alone With Nature,’ ” said the sallow young man with the long hair and the frayed trousers. “It is a personal impression.”

.“Is it?” replied the editor, as he hastily, glanced at the opening lines. “Have you ever been alone with nature?”

“I have, and, oh, it is glorious—glorious!” “Here’s a dime. Get on a trolley cfir and ride as far as you can. Go back to nature and spend another hour or two alone with her. You say you plucked the hazel blossoms by the stream. If you are able to find any place where you can do that let me know. I want to watch you while you do it.”
