celebrating the occasion by appropriate
exercises in their school-rjoms and
where the opportunity Is offered, by the
planting of young trees and shrubs.
TIL schools boys and girls of New
York city are taking just az much
interest In the annual celebration of
Arbor Day as II they lived out in the
country and were surrounded by the
green fields and woods blooming with
wild flowers. Although they cannot
plant trees or indulge in the out-of-door
ceremonies which make the day 30 sug-
gestive and full of interest to the chill
dren OF the villages and country towns
of the state, their minds are perhaps
all the more deeply impressed with the
Significance of exercises in which they
are participating Indoors.

a. part OF the programme of the day

tive garb.
A special pamphlet has been issued by

Unreliable Authority.

One year ago the country was being
informed from various respectable
and more or less reliable sources that
the country was suffering, trade was
at a standstill. industry was crushed
business was paralized, and gold was
being exporte,.-facts which were APP
parent enough-all because Of Il GER
tain silver purchase law. And these
same respectable and more or less re-
spectible authorities volunteered the
further information that if that OBJ
nOxiOus law were to be repealed all
would be lovely, the expectation of
gold would Immediately cease, ant!
rOsperity would come like an angel
Of benificence to shed it's blessings on
an afflicted people.

nary session and the silver purchase
law was repealed. But prosperity did
not come, business and industry re-
