We Mean You !

Whenever the REGISTER expresses
a desire, in its more or less pointed
way, that delinquent subscribers pay
up, there is one class of patrons who
invariably takes the hint. This is the
class who never allow themselves to
get more than a year behind. They
always respond nobly. But these are
not the ones we are after this time.
We want 70 hear from the fellows who
are three or four years-perhaps long
er-behind with their subscriptions.
We are not hitting at the folks hrs1
described-they seldom need remind
ers. But we are hitting at the long
term people, to whom we have been
more indulgent than we can Afford
We do want you to give us iift--li
YOU can't pay all, pay part OF your
indebtedness. Every little helps vi
course. we are always glad TO receive
money from any who want to pay IT,
whether they owe for short time or
a long time.
But just now we are calling the SIN
ners. not the righteous, TO repentance.

Arhor DAY

Hr0or DdI
State Superintendent of Schools b.
5. Morgan has recommended that
Friday, November 18th, be observed
as Arhor Day by the public schools OF
West Virginia. He gives the following
reasons for observing Arbor Day:
l. Because on account Of the rapid
destruction Of forests and the injurious
effect of this destruction upon climate,
fruits and grains, it is even already
highly necessary that the people be
taught the importance Of tree planting
for economic and sanitary reasons.
2. Because the public schools afford
all excellent opportunity for instruct
ing all the children OF the State, by
these annual festivals in regard to the
uses Of trees, the value Of forests, their
relation TO climate and crops, and the
duty and necessity OF providing
against the evils to follow their de
struction by preserving as much OF
our native forests as possible and by
restoring the waste places. Besides,
the observance of this day is gradually
growing into "a beautiful custom that
is otherwise profitable to the school
children.
3. To encourage the Improvement
and oruamentation OF school grounds
throughout the State. School build
ings aud grounds are in many cases
left in deplora bly, neglected condition
without enclosures, walks, or shade
trees OF any character whatever.
