TREES AS HITCHING POSTS

The following editorial from the
Boston Traveller is applicable for any
community in Vermont and is so much
TO the point that we trust its truth
will be taken home to the people ev-
erywhere. "The recent amendments
made to the Massachusetts, laws relat-
ing to public shade trees ought to help
IN the work of conserving these i'm
portant aids to public comfort and
beauty. Trees serve to make attract
tive many street which without
their presence would be devoid OF
charm. The new law makes it possible
TO lay a fine of $50 on anyone who al
fixes to tree in public way or place
a bill or picture, announcement, notice
or advertisement of any kind, and Sooo
fine on whoever, without PERMISSION,
trims. cuts down or destroys any tree
or shrubs in a public highway. FUR
tbermore, whoever bitches horse to
a tree, knowing that the animal has a
fondness for chewing bark, will be
liable to fine. And this obligatory
respect for the public's trees will en-
gender more respect for trees in gem
eral. Much wrongdoing is the result
of thoughtfulness. These new laws
which doubtless will be publicly post
ed--but not by being nailed on street
trees-will make people think. In ad-
dition to our annual Arbor Day ineen-
tive for planting trees, these new laws
are TO be welcomed as a welcome
means for keeping those we already
have"
In Barre. as elsewhere, we presume,
we lay much Of the cause OF the de-
struction of trees to gas, electricity
and other artificial reasons, when, as
a matter Of fact, the horses are doing
ius, as much and perhaps more toward
the destruction of the shade trees
Needless persons there are in every
community who hitch their horses TO
any convenient tree beside the road
and leave the animal to gnaw away at
the protecting bark until the constant
attack weakens the life Of the tree
and finally kills it entirely. In the
smaller communities in particular one
will find trees with gashed sides slow
ly diving because the covering has been
worn away in large part. The evil oi
using trees as hitching-posts is APP
parent nearly everywhere. - Barre
Times.

permanent base of operations.

statement declaring the operations
wer solely for salvage purposes ana

ders by wireless to the New Orleans

citizens and organizations and clean
up committees are requested to give
special attention to cleaning up prop
critics abutting on the railroads and to

spoil Vermont views for the traveller.
This work ought to be done in the
villages and the cities and in the
country if Vermonters are to be loyal
to the slogan: Vermont, as perfect
as a Garden, as Beautiful as Park.
The railroads will cooperate by put
ting their men at work on the right of
way and devoting Friday, May 7th--

vent,-a following day to clean up
work on their right of way. The
Greater Vermont Association finds
among all disposition to work to
make Vermont immaculate, in class
