looked for a lower market were

Plant Trees Colby Campus

Arbor day was observed a little
early this year by two of the Colby
professors. DIR. Mardquardt has his
class room the north side of Recita-
ton hall and he ruled in this domain
for many years. The view from this
side has been a bare bleak lawn in
front of the Delta Epsilon house
crossed by numerous by paths. DIR.
Mardquardt decided that he wanted
to change the scenery as well as to
beautify the campus. Together with
Prof Nelson he procured some youth
full trees from nearby forest and
proceeded UP College avenue by arm
strong carrier. They planted the
trees on the ID. L. lawn and for two
days they conveyed material to aid
the trees in their growth in wheel
barrows. These trees are much need
ed on the campus as some of the old
er trees are beginning to die out.
