HISTORIC TREES
FOR The PARK
May be Planted at the Foot
Of West Street By the
Colonial Danes

Following the lead Of societies in many
other States. the Delaware Society Of
Colonial Danes is trying to obtain from
the Park Commissioners tract in Bran
dywine Park in which to plant trees graft
ed from places Of historical interest all
over the country. To this end committee
Of three has been appointed to confer
with the commissioners, and in all prob
abilities the movement will be successful.
The idea has been fostered for a long
time by the president Mrs. Charles r.
Miller, who thought it most appropriate
that Delaware, as one Of the most histor-
ically interesting States in the Union,
should thus be included In the plan TO
perpetuate interesting facts of the coun-
try's history by means Of trees.
The society already has its eye on a
pretty little tract in Brandywine Park
at the foot of West street in which 10
plant the trees These trees will be taken
from points of the country that have play
ed important parts in its history and will
be planted with the appropriate cere-
monies that are usually observed by so
cieties in other States. Delaware itself,
Of course, will be largely represented and
trees from the many interesting historical
places in the State will be brought here
If the proposed movement Is successful
list Of places from which trees are tc
be obtained has already been prepared
One Of the first win be brought from Mt
Vernon, the home Of Washington.
The committee, which viii confer with
the Park Commissioners comprises Mrs
Samuel Bancroft, Mrs. Eugene DUPONT
and Mrs f. T. Warner The society made
application for permission to plant men,
orial trees on park land at the meeting
Of the Park Commissioners yesterday and
it was referred to the executive COM
mittee Of that body. This committee will
confer with the committee from the
Colonial Danes.
