In Lake Wales, #Florida, #American-#Dutch man who had grown wealthy in the publishing industry (mostly though “Ladies’ Home Journal), and who, harkening after his grandmother’s advice to leave the world a better place than you found it, used his wealth to create a #carillon (musical #belltower) and #botanical #gardens for the public to enjoy.
