Trees are and have been intimately

He that planteth a tree Is the servant OF
God
He provided a kindness for many zen
And faces that he hath never seen shall
bless him.
Probably the most highly priced
tree in the world is an avocado pear
tree in California. which returns an
annual income of $1,000, and was once
insured for $4,000. AS to trees In

There was no one to cry "Woodman.

Marking the achievement of what is
perhaps the greatest accomplishment
by any of the smaller communities in
Imperial Valley by way of civic i'm
provement was the dedication yester-
day of the new church at Seeley.
This church is a modern structure
and it's quarters have been so con-
structed as to be conviently used for
anything from the meeting of the
Ladies' Aid society to meeting of the
Seeley Farm Bureau.
No one, save those VIII have should
cred the burden of getting the thing
done, can realize the difficulties that
have been overcome, the trials, and
disappointment that have been exper-
fenced during the process of conStruc-
ton.
Easter Sunday, was the day of dedi-
cation, regular services being held in
the morning after which more than 200
happy citizens sat down to a sumptu.
Gus chicken dinner.
The dedication service proper, began
about 2.3O o'clock with an address of
welcome, delivered by Rev. Walter
Reed in behalf of the ministers of the
valley Dr. Austin, pastor of the
church read the names of all the
pledgors, which was practically a roster
of the citizenship of Seeley and envir-
ons, nearly every pledge had been paid.
DR.. Geo. Kenngott of Los Angeles,
preached the dedication sermon. Rev.
Oscar Sweeney made the dedication
prayer and Rev. r. L. Glasby pro-
nounced the benediction.
