impetus in tree planting such as the
world has never seen. The day after
the armistice was signed the Ameri-

campaign for memorial tree planting.
The tree is the memorial offering Of

without waiting for planning COM

The trees are being planted both in
memory of the man who gave his life
and in honor of the man who offered
his life when his country called. In
addition, we have memorial parks and
roads of remembrance. Motor asso-
Citations have taken up the plan of tree

When kangaroos box they back of

4 BOYS ART

Some one was stealing the big
luscious pears on the tree that grew
close to the garden wall OF the house
where the boy Thomas Gainsborougf,
one day to become a great artist, lived.
One morning Tommy took his sketch
book and slipped out into the garden
to draw. He didn't get chance to do
much OF the sketchiag he loved, be-
cause his father frowned upon Il.
He feared that Tommy would not
spend enough time on his school

Pershing placed memorial trees in

brought hundreds of nominations Of
trees marking historic spots through

Pete. Just look at that jaw of his,

He pulled back the upper lip OF the
dog, and showed a row Of glisteninS
teeth in a protruding jaw that looked
capable OF taking care Of any enemy
no matter how dangerous.
The thought crossed my mind that,
associated with Lillian in the secret
service work as 1 was, with the proba-
bility of having entrusted to me many
important documents, it would be
very good thing TO have such strength
and faithfulness as that of Pete and
hts master keeping guard over this
lonely home Of mine.
when do you want me an Pete to
come over Mis- Gramie?''
I couldn't help smiling quietly at
the assurance of poor old William
Trumbun. Accompanied by his dog,
Pete, who looked almost as disrepu-
tablet as he did, he had followed me to
the border of the little lake at the rear
of the home we had recently bought,
insisted that with Jim gone to the war
/ needed a man about the place, and
announced that he and Pete, his dog,
were ready to go to work
But the smile faded as 1 looked at
the face of the dwarf like man turned
up TO mine. There was anxiety in the
face, almost a look OF fear in the near
sighted eyes, and I recalled what had
once heard Of William Trumbun that,
while he was honest and faithful he
was so slow and forgetful no one would
employ him long.
He lived from hand to mouth, in first
one deserted shack or barn and then
another in the rambling old village,
and I knew that in the prospect OF a
real home for himself and his beloved
dog was Ige a glimpse of heaven to
him.
But where could you sleep, Will
nam?" I asked, puzzled by this prob
lem, which, indeed, was the only thing
in the way of the old chaps PROPOSE
ton.
Right upstairs there in the barn."
he answered promptly.
"oh, surely. William, there's no
place there fit for anyone to sleep"
