STATE NURSERY AN AID TO
ROADSIDE BEAUTIFICATION

A State nursery is necessity in
roadside development on any worth
while scale, writes James H. Taylor,
highway landscape supervisor, Mas
sachusetts Department of Public
Works, in discussing the planting of
trees and shrubs along highways in
the August issue of Public Roads,
a publication of the Bureau of Pub
lie Roads of the United States De-
partment of Agriculture. The plant
ing of Small stuff" or trees of in
sufficient growth is a waste of
money, he says.
The nursery is needed, Mr.. Taylor
says, as propagating area, for
planting stock bargains and holding
them until they are needed, for plant
ing collected stock and growing it
until fit for the roadside, and for
studying the characteristic of plants
and their adaptability to the road
sides, "The nursery is the labora-
tory and experimental station of
roadside improvement" he says.
The Massachusetts, State highway
system has 1000 miles of road and
is divided into seven districts. Mr..
Taylor hopes to make each district
sufficient unto itself in the matter of
tree and roadside care by perfecting
district units for this distinct pur-
pose.
At present work is carried on from
a base in the centrally located town
of Palmer, where there are 12 acres
of nursery, seed beds, propagation

Records OF No Account

Now woman drives car for 80
hours without stopping for sleep in
order to establish an endurance rec
ord for women. A boy sets up a
pole in his back yard and remains
perched on the top of it for days,
just to make record. One woman
even claims to have set the record
for continuous rocking in. a porch
rocking chair.
This rage for doing useless things
longer than anybody ever did them
before is silly and ridiculous-and
often harmful. The one purpose be-
hind it all is, of course, getting pub
licity. Just why sane person wants
publicity is one of the little mystic
ries of human nature. If those pow
ers of the press who confer this COW
eted prize on misguided aspirants
would use more discretion it would
greatly help. They ought to know
when to ignore things. If they would
pay no attention to the foolish fell
low who is trying to eat the largest
number of ears of corn at one sitting,
or to the deluded wight seeking the
endurance record for standing on
one foot, those seekers of publicity
might begin to seek for some useful
work to door do nothing in a less
obtrusive way.

The Last Survivor

Something is always happening to
give us shock of relization of our
youth as a nation. Here in Wash
ington Owen Edgar, last survivor of
the war with Mexico passes away at
the age of SO.
Old men have read about that war
as schoolchildren and thought of it
then as of the distant past. Yet all
the time, right through three subse-
quent big wars, and even in the
Hoover administration, one of the
fighters in that war was with us. Of
course there are quite a number of
people still with us who were chill
dren or infants at the time.
Only few years ago the last sur
viving fighter of the War of 1912
passed away. And it has not been
long ago that several persons were
still telling of having seen George
Washington, our first president. We
live speedily as a people but get old
slowly as a nation. Think of it, at
the rate set by Veteran Edgar there
will be survivors of the World War
in 1000! How many other wars will
then be surviving?

The lesson-sermon also included
the following passages from the
Christian Science textbook, Science
and Health with Key to the Scrip
tures," by Mary Baker Eddy:
God creates all forms of reality.
His thoughts are spiritual realities.
So-called mortal mind-being nom
existent and consequently not within
the range of immortal existence
could not by Stimulating deific power
invert the divine creation, and after
wards recreate persons and things
upon its own plane, since nothing
exists beyond the range of all-in
elusive infinity, in which and of
which God is the sole creator" (p.
513-514).

riety and nature of these pithy YER
bal sallies disprove that wisecrack-

than that-it is business, and a

Also, the art has assumed more
serious aspects. If it was once
something used chiefly to vile away
the time around cheese box and

both House and Senate. Such politi-
cal lights as "Al" Smith and Mayor
Jimmy" Walker of New York,
whose penchant for witty sallies is
well known, have helped give the
wisecrack a real political status.
Radio broadcasters have carried on
in making the nation as a whole

resents their combined ideas as to

even though they did not win prize
many contributors should have
satisfaction in knowing that their

In view of the public interest
