The Arlington, Mass, Advocate of August
oath las this to say of a Searsport boy, and
of whom his native town may well feel
proud:
Last year it seemed as though we had
used up all the adjectives available in praise
of the appearance of the ground around the
centre railroad station, but this was unwise,
as we are in greater need of them than ever
this year, for Station Agent Morrow has
found it possible to improve on the display
last year and with the help of his assistants
has put the grounds in fine condition in
spite of the dry weather, while since the
storm of last week the premises are simply
Every citizen of Arlington who has occasion
to pass the locality cannot but admire the
taste and beauty displayed and should have
feeling of pride that strangers on their
arrival in town receive the gratifying i'm
preston of the town such surroundings are
likely TO call forth. Skill and taste have been
shown by Mr.. Morrow in the arrangement
and combination of the flowers and shrubs
in their several ornamental beds, so that
they are highly effective and artistic in color
effects. The name of the station is planted
in varigated shrubs on a raised mound so
that it strikes the eye of stranger at once,
and has been so planted and tended that the
letters are perfect in shape and show up
finely from the green and closely clipped
turf Not the least attractive feature about
the grounds is the excellent condition of the
lawns, owing to the constant care given
them. We are proud of Arlington centre
station every time we pass OF disembark
from the trains and receive with complais-
ance the fattering remarks of strangers.
