From the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
Visitors to Kansas City are greatly struck
by the rapid transformation going on
through the systematic planting and care OF
shade trees and the multiplication of flower
gardens. 1t Is said that one far-sighted
man started the movement and followed 1t
up with such energy and persistence that
tho public spirit of the whole city was
aroused and hundreds of helpers enlisted
for the work Kansas City now has a city
forester among its officials. and thousan nds
OF additional shade trees have been set this
spring The women's auxiliary TO the Man
uiacturers' Association of Kansas City will
distribute this month 60.000 packages of
flower seed to school children. IF the
smaller houses and yards are kept neat"
says the Kansas City Star. IF the grass is
nicely trimmed and flowers are grown. the
city VIII be beautiful" Is st. Louis aware
or what 1t loses by neglecting to beautify
Itself with shade trees and to encourage the
