A Proclamation.
1t is highly important that the peo-
pie of our State give their earnest at
tention to the preservation of our
forests, the protection of our song
and insectivorous birds and gen
eral improvement of the attractive
features of our commonwealth.
therefore proclaim Friday, May Z,

and urge our good people to consider
ately improve the day in carefully Sc
lecting and planting trees with the
end in view of steady increase of
the substantial and economic value
of our forests and the improvement
vi our scenic DpdulN.
1t is essential that the necessity
and worth of this work be impressed
upon the minds of our boys and girls
that the results may be beneficial
and lasting Fitting and impressive
exercises should be held in all our
public schools and practical demon
strations made in tree, shrub and
flower planting by our teachers and
by the people generally.
The establishment of a practical
system of reforestation is important
and a study of the needs of such
should be made feature of the day
and become an important part of our
educational system.
Our efforts should not be selfish:
but we should build for the future
that the beautiful in nature, the
strength in the forest and the power
in the stream may be brought to the
highest state of efficiency.

Great Seal of the State, at Montpelier
