the praises Of the pine and oak, the ce-
dar and cypress. but the palm is worth
at least q pleasant word. There are
hundreds of species Of palm, but that
which stands out as serving man In
most ways is the cocoanut or cocoanut
palm. And after the cocoanut in i'm
portance and utility comes the date
tree or the date palm.
The palm tree OF Scripture is un-
derstood to have been the date palm.
For all the centuries that man has
lived on earth the date palm has fur
nished food and shelter. Its timber
and it's. foliage have their uses even
now. Sugar-date SUGARS made from
its sap just as maple sugar is
made from the sap Of the maple tree.
Its sap has been fermented into wine
Tor scores Of countries. and that sap for
many ages has been distilled into .

General C. G. Bruce, head of the
