John B. was some excited too but Baltic just
stood there with his eyes on Grace, and after
Charlie and John B. had both had their try at
explaining the trouble, he started in cool and
collected. He told Grace how I had skinned the
crowd. Maybe you think Baltic isn't artist at
wordarrangng too.
Grace just gave me one look.
Aren't those refrigerator looks the suicide
tempters though? Honest Dick, felt worse than

look of Grace's said all of that with about seven
post-scripts.
That was torture, but that crowd of near
friends were not through. No sir About eight

find the road again. I never did find that spring,
but I'll bet there was not mud-hole within an
area of two miles that didn't get into with both
feet and got poison Ivy too. Oh! look pretty.
When I got back to camp 1t was deserted.
That crowd had basely deserted me- They didn't
leave sandwich, or an olive, or anything like
that, and had to walk to town, fifteen miles.
I'm not especially courageous, but neither am
a regular coward, still have stiff neck from
trying to look behind me for most of that fifteen
miles.
Did you ever have poison ivy, Dick?

surely did take advantage of shady hooks and
exquisite scenery that day, and was making some
head-way with Grace too. I would have been
calling regularly on Sunday nights If Baltic hadn't
been of inquiring mind
Isn't it funny, Dick, how nature will get to a
girl? Grace and l had not been on a NICE big
friendly old rock than minute before she
said, in the gentlest sweetest little way:
'Mtts-why don't you stop chasing around so
much, and settle down to trying to be somethng?"

I got real friendly with
the Captain and tried to
get him to let go of the
rudder handle suddenly,
so she would swing over
to the other side and
knock Baltic into the
canal. He admitted it
would be entertaining, but
argued that he couldn't do
1t because Baltic, not
knowing him very well as
yet, might think he was
taking liberties, and get
sore. Sol gave him a
couple of smokes and
asked him to let me steer
for a little while, which
same he obligingly did.
At what I thought was
the opportune moment, I
let her go, but Dick, she
played me false and
swung my way. Honest,
that old handle hit me in
the third button and
pinned me up against the
side of that boat so tight,

free: And oh gee, but l

The Captain laughed so
hard I got sore and
smacked Charlie Green's

water. OF course, Dick,
that was not exactly thor

was not my social equal.
so of course it would
never do for me to accost
him.

the loss of roots in digging up the
trees.
In planting the tree, they were told
10 spread the roots out into natural

an inch deeper in the ground than it
stood in the nursery; TO use good rich
soil, but TO allow no fertilizer or mulch

roots; to work the soil carefully about
the roots. and to water the tree plen-
tifully every few days after it was
set out, and during the dry weather

Five or six thousand treeS were
given away in this manner. Two or
three trees were given TO each child
who asked for them, and almost every
child did so. There We're many see

! children lost all they planted. Each
child who received trees was required
to fill out a slip giving his name and

The prairie town without trees is
cherries and unattractive. Few things
add more TO the attractiveness of a
town than rows of thrifty shade trees
planted along its streets.
Village and town Improvement so
cieties and civic associations have done
much to promote tree planting, especi-
ally i'll the prairie regions of the mid
die west Where trees adapted t.;
local conditionsshave been planted, and
where the citizens have cared for them
and taken an interest in them, the re-
suits have been remarkable.
A public spirited man residing in a
city in Missouri has been doing COM
mendable work along this line. in con-
nection with the Civic improvement
| league of his city. In the year 1901 he
planted a large quantity of seeds of
various trees in nursery rows. He
carefully tended the young seedlings,
and, a few years later, dug them up,
labeled them, and turned them over 10
the school children, free, upon condi-
ltion that they should be planted and
cared for
Since the trees started life with the
beginning of the present century, they
we're called century trees and this
gave them additional interest.
Each child was given printed direc-
tons, which were headed as follows:
| Ornament your homes-plant Cen
fury trees, seedlings of 1901-they
are living monuments; watch them de-
velop-they began with the century
and the century. as it advances, marks
the record of their age year by year"
Those who received trees were di
rected to dig holes two feet in diam
eter and one and one-half feet deep
