Beautifying School Grounds.

a Lake County correspondent pleads for
the horticultural education of the children
of America, and calls attention to the
fact that in this very important branch of
education we are far behind many foreign
nations. We also publish an extract from
American Gardening, on the subject of
school-yard gardens, in which the author
details some of the very gratifying results
obtained from the establishment of a gar
den in connection with a school which he
once attended. In the June issue Of Sue
cess with Flowers S. Rosetta Kelley Prin-
cipal Of the Public Schools of Rochester,
California, gives the following interesting
and delightful picture of what has been
already accomplished, and also what is pro-
posed for the future, in the above line at
that school:
The new schoolhouse was completed
and, indeed, we were very proud of it. A
commodious building of modern architect
ure, with spacious audience room, class
rooms, library, office, dressing and
The next thing in order was to beautify our
grounds We have five acres. 1t has been
suggested that two and one half acres be
planted with fruit trees and the income
used as library fund However, the State
provides for our library, and the boys
claim ball ground.

of Monterey Pines and a Cypress hedge.
Between the hedge and the school building
is a level plat to be used for lawn and
flowers. First we gave working" max
ing general frolic of it like a New England
husking- bee or a Western log-rolling. The
men with their teams plowed and graded
the yard and built the irrigating ditch. The
ladies hustled about in the schoolhouse,
spread long tables and served an appetizing
dinner and supper.
ga committee was appointed to receive
the trees and shrubs kindly donated by
patrons and friends. At the Semi-monthly
Literary Society plans for laying out the
grounds we're examined, and the best &C
cepted. A carriage road from the avenue
to the rear of the lot is to be bordered with
a Cypress hedge. A crescent driveway
outlined with cypress passes the front en-
trance. The large oval space formed by
this driveway is cut through the center by
a walk On each side are palms and in the
center circular bed of roses-red. yellow

Not a Wanderer.

Though the mans hair was streaked
with gray it was evident that he was
not old, yet there were heavy lines
about the mouth and a stoop in the
shoulders. 1t was plain that he had
suffered much.
Perhaps he was too proud to beg.
Anyway he merely stood close to
the restaurant window and gazed
longingly at the appetizing display.
His eyes had an eager expression and
his frame trembled visibly.
