DECLINE OF ARBOR DAY.
Nevada Represenfativel

Friday last, April 25, was Arbor day.
It does not seem to have been general
ly observed in Iowa. Reason for the
decline of it's observance in towns is
found in the fact that the spirit of tree
planting has already, as a rule, sup
piled city school grounds with as much
shade as is practicable. A ride thru
the country, however, shows that the
work of furnishing shade for rural
school yards is not yet accomplished.
Doubtless plenty of trees have been
planted, but they have lacked proper
care, and the sun will blaze on the
recreations of the country school child
as fiercely as it did before Arbor day
was Instituted. 1t seems a pity that
this should be so. Many city schools
whose grounds are already well shaded
have this year planted vines and
shrubs and put in place window boxes
which they have lately prepared. Kin
dergartens and primary schools have
been especially interested in this work
The children of the Nevada kindergar-
ten have planted little garden.
Tree planting was first festival in
the Nevada schools In 1876. In the
spring of that year, the first spring af-
ter the new building was occupied
every teacher and every pupil who
wished to, planted a tree on the school
grounds, ard thru the succeeding
months and years the owner gave 1t af-
fection and such care as circumstances
permitted. Dire was the offense which
harmed the sapling of tenderness and
hope. Willful injury Of this sort in
those early years there was none, and
seldom was twig broken thru care
lessness. Some trees have died and
some have been tdded since, but trees
of that first planting provide most of
the shade nthe yard of the high school
