The city council and other cifl-
zens are taking up the suggestion
made by the Message several
years ago, that Mexico has too
many shade trees. Too many of
them keep out the sunshine and
make it unhealthy. Too many of
our shade trees are like too many
of MexicO's dogs-too onery to
live. When it is necessary to plaut
a shade tree, plant one, but plant
one that will bear something, as
well as give shade. Some sense
in that.
