COTI-.IGF. FOR MISS HEAD, BERKELEYIf. H. RatcHfl, Jr., Architect The Treatment of the Pergola IN OUR DAY a pergola seems to be regarded as a si>jn of artistic enlighten-ment. It is new, it is fashionable, it is even becoming obvious. Like suchthings, it is full of danger, the danger inherent in all similar formal affairs andin the machinery of formal gardens in i)articular. The chief trouble withAmericans in this connection is that they have gone into formal layouts bacU-wards. nf)t realizing tiiat such things are produced and made reasonable by cer-tain ordered conditions and a long devotion to the ritual of life, and that apartfrom such conditions the mere apjiaratus can make very fools of its proud pos-sessors. :\ formal garden is a test.
