frisky; and people come to lap
the waves who used to call for
whisky. From distant springs

meadows ferny; it doesn't break
a human heart throughout its
whole blamed journey; by green
and boskey dells it flows, where
thirsty things can find it, and
doesn't paint a mortal's nose, or
leave bad tastes behind it. 1t
gives refreshment, pure and
clear, to tired and painting crit
tiers and old soaks drink it, with

pie water. They swear that such
a drink is fierce, compared with
highballs recent. but when
they've drunk about t;erce
they find it pretty decent. The
brook is ripping as it winds to
join the distant ocean, and nc
cheap cloves or lemon rinds dis
turb its sweet commotion. And
poor old jaded boozy wrecks
along its margin hover; they
pour its waters down their
necks, and self-respect recover

two years as a result of the difficulty
of obtaining labor. according to the
annual report of Clifford Lanham
superintendent of trees and parkings,

day.
Labor has been exceedingly scarce"
reads the report. and as a result
there are many vacant tree spaces in
the established lines Of trees, and
also many improved streets where
trees should be planted. We have at
this time 3.02l tree holes listed for
digging and planting. and it is the
intention to make an extra effort dur
ng the present year to plant trees at
these locations"

Supt Lanham tells the Commission
ers that. despite the fact that scores
of fine trees are killed by elements
over which his department has no
control. IT is his desire to See that
the total number does not diminish.

Lanham explains that the dust laden
with oil clogs the breathing bores on
the leaves. Illuminating gas also is
