one terrific fight after another, night
and day.
But that was child's play along
side the events following the ships
arrival in tropical waters. One after
noon about o'clock the entire crew
rushed on deck like madmen and
went up the masts into the rigging,
splitting their threats with yells.

PUBLIC PARKS AND SHADE TREES

Every town, whether large or
small, needs and should have an
abundance of public parks and shade
trees, beauty spots where the people
may gather for recreation in the
evening, for breath Of fresh air and
for rest and strength for the duties
of the day to come. This need is
emphasized now that the hot wealth
er is on hand again. A traveller go
ingirom one large city to another
was much interested in noting the
appearance of each little town or
community through which the train
passed. One town in particular
caught his fancy, for as the train
pulled slowly through the town his
eyes fell upon long vista of beauti'
ful shade trees, extending as far as
the eye could see, on each side of the
principal street Cozy, comfortable
homes nestled among the trees and
the flower gardens. He never had
occasion to visit this town, but he
has often been heard to comment
favoraby upon it and to express a
desire to make visit there because
of the favorable impression received
from seeing the beautiful shade trees
and the general air of comfort sur
rounding the town. Every citizen
can help to make this town brighter
and more attractive by putting out
and cutiyating shade trees and by
assisting to secure and maintain
public parks and beauty spots,
