According to Section 10801 Of
the 1918 edition of the School
Laws of Missouri, Arbor Day
should be observed. The Section
reads 1.-THE first Friday after the
first Tuesday in April of each
year is hereby set apart as arbor
day for this State, and all teach
ers, pupils and patrons are re-
quested to observe the same in
their respective school districts
by encouraging the planting Of :
trees, shrubbery and flowers up ,
on and around the school grounds !

grounds may be rendered pleas
ant and attractive-a part Of said
day to be devoted to literary ex-
arcises, having special reference +
to the work in hand. as the teach $
pr or committee in charge may di-

am sure the school boards will b
