About 900, years ago in little
town in Switzerland there were not
many trees. AsnaT said "why not
go out into the forest and get some
oak trees" All 6f;.the men, women
and children were togo out into the
forest and dig gisip little oak trees and
bring them inf6 the, town and plant
them in the cqAlaen The next year
they had gam esfapd feasts and the
children had Ehaaten cake as re-
ward. This DAY was called Arbor
day and nowFthe name, has gone all
round the world. Lyle. Quinn, Ger

Mrs. King wrote pocm, about
Arbor day on the bodrd | likeeespe-

"A tree that looks at God all day,
And lifts her loafy arms to pray;
A tree that may in summer wear
A nest of robins in her hair"
