Announcement OF Aroor Day on April
Twenty-Eighth is More Than
Formal ProcIa-
nation.
PLEA FOR OBSERVANCE
Says That Trees Should be Planted
Around School Houses on That
Day-Twenty-five Years
Worn.

1 Governor George w. Clarke yes
terday issued a proclamation desig-
mating Friday. April %, as arbor day.
1t is not mere formal proclamation,
however, but an earnest appeal for
the planting of trees on school
grounds and at proper places on pub
| lie highways. He says that notwith-
standing the fact that proclamations
have been issued on arbor day OBJ
servance for twenty-five years there
are probably now as many or more
school houses without a tree or shrub
on the grounds as there were twenty
4 five years ago. His proclamation and
appeal follows:
| ''For almost twenty-five years gov
errors of Iowa have annually issued
a proclamation designating a day to
be known as arbor day and urging it's
observance. particularly in the schools
Of the state, by the planting of trees
on school grounds. Notwithstanding
that fact it is very probable that
there are as many, or more, school
houses without a tree or shrub on
their grounds as when the first proc
lamation was issued. The day, how
ever, has been regularly observed by
reading and singing the finest things
that have been said about trees.
Iowa has spent seven millions OF
dollars on new public school build
ings within the last three years.
There are 1877 consolidated schools in
the state. The new buildings are,
for the most part, beautiful and
equipped with all modern improve
ments. The grounds about them, as
rule, are commodious Should not
| these new buildings have beautiful
settings? Should not the children be
taught to assist in protecting every
plant, tree and shrub placed on the
grounds? Will not the people think
Of these things and delay no longer?
'In order that they may, I hereby
name and proclaim arbor day, April
IS, 1916, and beg that meetings be
called at once to arrange for a proper
observance OF the day-beg that
somebody in each community will
take the initiative in behalf of bet.
ter and more beautiful state and fin
err ideals among the people and urge
that not only at our school houses
and other public buildings but also
along our public highways, at proper
places, there be planted trees, shrub
and plants, all contributing to the
things that make life a joy and gen.
timely worth while. Have not the
young people pride enough and in
terest enough in the future to united
lily accomplish this task? Will not
the womens clubs see to it that here
after arbor day shall mean more?"

Secretary Daniels Refuses to Rein

patch. 1t is regrettable that the Keo-
kuk man was dismissed, especially
as he was on the eve of his gradua-
ton from the academy.
The trouble occurred over shielding
one of the middies, who was accused
of having been intoxicated. Belts was
charged with breach of discipline and
summariIy dismissed. Efforts were
started Immediately for his re-in-
statement, but that these failed is
shown by the following despatch
from Washington:
'"That navy discipline is sharp and
stern was demonstrated when Sena-
tor Kenyon and Representative Ken

to get restored Cadet Belts of Keo-

Belts was ordered to take another

Belts had used liquor. However. he

is HOME LESS ATTRAcTIvE7
Every Member Of Family Nowadays
Seems to Find Entertainment
Elsewhere.

The average American home seems
to be losing it's attraction for the
household. Anna GLADDEN. writes in the
New Orleans Times-Picayune. The
home Is frequently only a place in
which to sleep and eat. The chill
dren coming home from school stop
at home long enough to deposit their
books and go of in pursuit of enter
tainment. The mother entertains her
visitors by shopping or visiting the
picture show. The evening callers are
treated to a musical entertainment or
a theater party. The call of outside
attraction is strong. However, the
home should have its attractions and
be satisfying to both old and young
in the household. When the back yard
has been transformed from an ash
heap and a tin-can pile to a plot of
flowers: when ugliness in fence and
0utbuildings has been covered with
vines; when window boxes add q
touch of nature to the house and grass
covers the lawn, and when this
is done by the members Of the house.
hold who find pleasure in the task,
the home will have increased attrac.
ton and the household will want time
to linger and enjoy the development
from day to day.

PECULIAR SPECIMEN OF WASP
Insect That Is Becoming More Com.
mon IN England Not Pretty Thing
to Look At.

Tho other day a fearsome insect
made its appearance in the window

London Chronicle. The chemist, plac-
Ing a little chloroform wad lear the
invader. soon reduced it to a coma
tose condition. In color and shape
1t was much like a giant hornet. with
q very long sting. 1t was a specimen
of the giant-tailed wasp (Sirex gigans),
which is getting much more common
than it was some years ago. The
larva is a wood-feeder, and is sup
posed to have been introduced to
Great Britain in foreign timber.
The perfect insect is about two
inches in length, has four membra-
nous wings, and long, yellow a%ntennae.
The body is %blueblack, with yellow
stripes, and tho long boring apparatus

into the timber in which to deposit it's
eggs has, to the uninitiated. the ap-

QUEER IDEAS ABOUT TEETH
They Have Been Worshiped and Are
Worn AZ Amulets-Some Other
Superstltions.

The mothers of Bretagne will not

Teeth have often been, and to thie

Sharks teeth serve this purpose in

Question OF Tongue.

Some amount of confusion is caused
by the pronunciation of the name OF
the town Kuprulu, or: Veles, in Mace.
donia. The difference in nomencla.
ture is attributable to the conflict of
tongues. Kuprulu, Koprulu or Ku-
prili, is the Turkish equivalent of the
Bulgarian Valesa and the Greek We
lissa, all of which refer to the same
town in the vilayet (as it was under
Turkish rule) Of Saloniki. The ancient
Greek historian Polybius speaks Of
the town of B%ylazors. and. it is be-
lieved that the Bulgarian and modern
Greek names are corruptions of this.
The Turkish form, with slight modifi.
