that nearly all the other fashionables

that gossip is not exclusively confined

Canyon City news. (Canyon City, Tex.) 1903-1908, 1904-04-15
THE NEED FOR SHADE TREES

If a stranger within our gates
were to inquire, with certain lift
of the eyebrows, why Canyon
City is so barren of thrifty and
vigorous shade trees, what def
mite reply could be made? In what
way could the TACT be explained
without exposing ourselves to a
charge of crudenesS in taste, or lack
of appreciation of important aes-
thetic values9 1t would be posi-
bic, of course, to take the inquirer
around town and show him an oc-
casional fine array of young trees,
and demonstrate to our own salts
faction that the town is not entire
ly destitute of vigorous young
specimens.
But we should gain little pleasure
from the expedition; we should be
altogether free from what is called
the glow of triumph; for, in order
to make the demonstration, we
should have to traverse many
streets where tree growth has not
been given a chance to respond to
the suggestive coaXing of the sun
and soil. In many instances, Paul,
the citizen, has planted, and there
has been found no Silas of the town
to do the watering, tiguratively
speaking.
The shade trees of a town are
among the elements by which its
people are to be judged. A re
nowned traveller, who had the wit
to nfuse his writings with the germ
of permanence, makes very cur
iouS remark about one community
that he had occasion to visit "The
people, he said, care hospi'a l.,
but they lack refinement; but for
their houses they would live entire
" in the sun, for they have no
shade trees" 1t is to be presum-
ed, however, that this sweeping
criticism is based on the fact that
they had ample leisure to turn
their attention to the cultivation of
trees, and that, possibly, is precise
" what Canyon City has never
had.
This, OF course, will serve as an
excuse, but, between ourselves,
and to go no further, it is deSper-
ately poor excuse. As the boys
say, 1t won't hold water. Canyon
City is young, but she is as old as

tlourishing tree, which, having
reached the age of more than de.
cade, is then old enough to enjoy
| its youth. The first instinct of a
man who builds home is to plant
tree, and when one is planted
more are necessary, for there is
not a lonelier signt on earth than a
solitary tree. 1t seems to call for
companionship as though it needs
the comforts that association brings.
Canyon City has been a very
busy little city, and she is still
busy; in all probability she will
continue to be busy as long as
there is vacant lot with an area
of-well, we'll be modest about it
and say ten miles around. To be
modest is to be in some sort hum
BILE, and it is said that those who
are moved by the spirit of humility
and meekness shall inherit the
earth. But there are other com
munities that are just as busy, Gin
a small way) as Canyon City, and
still they find time to attend to
those matters that refinement puts
a premium Oh. Some of them do
not even rely on the enterprise of
the individual citizen to plant trees
where they will shade the side
walks. In short. there are some
communities that have so impress
ed their sentiments and desires on
the men who make their municipal
laws that there is provision made
for the public planting of trees.
The trees of a town, especially
those on the thoroughfares where
the people make their homes, are
not alone beautiful. They consti-
tute an element of health, and
very essential one. They have
been characterized as the lungs of
a city, but they are far more than
that. During the summer the diff
ference between the heat of an ex-
posed avenue and one that is pro-
tected by shade trees is fully so
degrees. That is to say, the heat
in one place is uncomfortable and in
the other. it is temperate and
healthful.
1t may be said, therefore, that
the planting of trees and shrubbery
about the homes serves a need
more important than the merely or
namental. They are active con-
tributorS to the most essential meas
ures of sanitation. 1t is said that
