FAMOUS TREES

Daniel Webster, when a youth, did
not like to work on a farm. To hang
a scythe is to put it on the sneathe so
as to be swung properly. Daniel de
cided the best way to hang a scvthe
was on a tree and 60 to Dartmouth
College. He became one Of the ma
tions greatest orators and statesmen.
The tree on which Daniel Webster
hung a scythe has been given a place
in the Hall of Fame. The nomination
of the tree was made by Frank \.
Hancock, of Franklin, n. H., which
then known as Salisbury, was the
birthplace of Webster on January Is,
1882. Mr.. Hancock has lived near the
tree for 80 years.
Another nomination of a tree for the
Hall of Fame announced by the Amer
lean Forestry Association is the Wes-
lev Oak on the Island of st. Simon,
off the coast of Georgia. This tree
was nominated by James R. JOY, of
New York City, editor of the Christian
Advocate. John Wesley and his
brother Charles arrived in America on
February 5, 1875. Charles Wesley
served as secretary to Governor Ogle-
thorpe and went to the island to help
Law out the town of Frederick. As
there was no meeting place both
Charles and John Wesley preached
their first sermons on this continent
beneath the Wesley Oak, which is still
standing.
A great-grandson of DR.. Samuel
johnson, the first president in 1904, OF
Kings College, now Columbia Uni
versity, in New York City, once owned
the land between Stratford and
Bridgeport, Conn.,, on which stands ar
oak nominated for a place in the Hall
of Fame by Miss Helen Harrison, OF
Bound Brook, N. ]. According to eX-
perts this tree is 500 years old.
One hundred and fifteen years ago
the Lewis and Clarke expedition
,camped beneath the Council Oak at
Sioux City, Iowa, and held council
with the Indians. This oak is noml-
mated for a place in the Hall of Fame
for tree by Mrs. Susie Brown, OF
Marion, Iowa, whose data sent to the
American Forestry Association shows
the tree was $50 years old when Lewis
and Clarke pitched camp beneath its
shade.
Nominations for places in the Hall
of Fame for trees are made to the
American Forestry Association &C
companied with photographs and his
torical data. More than three hun
dred trees were filed with the asso-
citation up to the close of 1920.

The First Robin

Whence has he come? Along what
weary route?
Cleaving the air with t~ireless wings
and fleet,
Speeding through miles of space, his
only chart,
The north winds breezy guidance,
chill and sweet
Planning his course with subtle reck-
oning, .
To bring a waiting world the song of
Spring.
With homing instincts, blind, unques-
tioning,
He seeks again the haunts Of last
years nest
The cold, stark earth, the bare
boughed, naked trees,
Awake no terror in his dauntless
breast. :.
He only knows a few more weeks will
bring
Green grass, and leaves, and apple
blossoming.
With wary glance and speculative eye,
He searches carefully a place to
build,
And now and then he thrills a note of
that
Wild ecstacy with which his heart
is filled.
And, robin, listening to your melody,
1t seems as if joy smiled again at me!
me!

He who plants a tree
Plants a hope.
Rootlets up through fbres bIindly
grope;
Leaves unfold into horizons free.
So mans life must climb
From the clouds of time
Unto heavens sublime.
Canst thou prophecy, thou little tree,
What the glory of thy boughs shall be?
He who plants a tree
Plants a joy;
Plants a comfort that will never
cloy;
Every day a fresh reality,
Beautiful and strong,
To whose shelter throng
Creatures blithe with song.
If thou couldst but know, thou happy
tree,
Of the bliss that shall inhabit thee!
He who plants a tree
He plants peace.
Under it's green curtains jargons
cease.
Leaf and zephyr murmur soothingly;
Shadows soft with sleep
Down tired eyelids creep,
Balm of slumber deep.
Never hast thou dreamed thou blessed
tree,
| Of the benediction thou shalt be.
He who plants a tree
He plants youth;
Vigor won for centuries in sooth;
Life of time, that hints eternity!
Boughs their strength uprear;
New shoots, every year,
On old growths appear;
Thou shalt teach the ages, sturdy
tree,
Youth of soul is immortality.
He who plants a tree
He plants love
Tents of GOODNESS spreading out
above
Wayfarers he may not live to see.
Gifts that grow are best;
Hands that bless are blest;
Plant! life does the rest!
Heaven and earth help him who plants
a tree,
And its work his own reward shall be

LIVE WITHIN YOUR MEANS

The principle of beginning no bet
ter than we can hold out, is q good
one to follow. In the good old days
our mothers began with very slim
house furnishings. Among the mid
die class half dozen silver spoons
was the usual amount of silver, a
mesh bottom rocking chair and half
dozen other chairs without rockers
to match, half dozen kitchen wind
sor chairs, a few dozen dishes, some
homespun linen, a table or two and
as many bedsteads, we're the princi-
pie part of the outfit. People got
married for love and they thought
more of pleasing each other than of
stunning the world with their APP
pearance. 1t was the rule to live
within our means.
1t seems shame that this rule is
not more generally adhered to today.
We wonder sometimes if young .peo-
pie get married today with any
sense of the real responsibilities of
marriage or If it is more with the
idea of keeping up with some other
young couple or couples in town
That seems to be the thing toward
which, they bend all their energies.
In doing so they fail to get the best
out of marriage. To them il is one
grand scramble to keep up with the
bunch" In a short time the whole
scheme looks pretty much of fail
ure to them. Some of the more
level-headed ones find out the cause
and turn about face and straighten
things out, but sad majority go
recklessly on and their marriage
finally breaks up in a divorce. Show
us a young couple who have the
courage to start out and live within
their income and we will show you
that same couple twenty-five years
later living happily together with
no worries about what the future
will bring them.
