ARBoR DAY

Each OIL America IOr.y-elSuI
states has an annual Arbor Day, first
observed in Nebraska in 1872, when
100000 trees were planted. j.
Sterling Morton, former Commits
sioner of Agriculture, fathered the
idea; as he was native of Nebras-
ka, that State has adopted April ~,
the anniversary of his birth, as Ar
Dor Day. About two-thirds of the
states have chosen various April and
May days for the same purpose.
April 10 is Arbor Day in many
states. The observance has been
generally too perfunctory with only
a negligible gain in the number OF
growing trees, but in recent years
the stark necessity of reforestation
has impaired a new impetus to the
annual custom.
Trees should be planted in waste
land, in cities, and along highways.
Every enterprising mayor should be
interested in making his "a city of
trees" Norway naples, American
elms, oaks, lindens, and sycamores
could be purchased by local garden
clubs or other organizations, sold to
property owners at cast, and set in
the ground by the city's park board
without charge. In some sections,
state and federal governments are
cooperating in plan to edge main
highways with maple, honey locust,
oak, cedar, crab, dogwood, crientai
palm, elm, or hawthorn.
Through the activity of the Civil
ian Conservation Corps morv trees
are being planted now than ever be-
fore, but what has been accomplish
ed should be regarded as merely a
beginning. The federal corn-hog-
wheat reduction program ha.: made
idle many acres which should be put
into some useful form of production.
Why not plant trees? Many farms,
once heavily wooded, are new al
most entirely denuded. II idle acres
were made productive, they would
be worth billions of dollars to sue
ceeding generations.
1t is a kindly deed to plant a tree
and let it grow, and still better to
put out many trees. Who will not
agree with the poet who asked a
question and answered it in this
fashion:
What does he plant who plants a
tree?
He plants in sap and leaf and
wood,
In love of home and loyalty
And far-cast thought of civic
good,
His blessings on the neighborhood.

Deaths not the end when we say
good night,
'Tis only the soul taking its fight.
Good morning, tie day breaks over
the sea,
Heaven is waiting, yes waiting
for thee.
Deaths not the end, with an open
grave;
Jesus our Saviour died and will
save.
We are immortal, praise His dear
name,
Into this sinful world He came.
Deaths not the end, but only the key
That unlocks the gates of eternity.
Glories of heaven before us unfold,
Bright jasper walls, streets of

Deaths not the end, we are home

As evening twilight falls around,
Toiling time all over and the care
Our savious waits to great us

FIND MINISTRY ovERCRowDED

There is no shortage of Profess
tant ministers in the United States,
belief to the contrary notwithstand-
ing; indeed, the ranks of the unem-
ployed are already swollen by an
army of many thousand supcrfluous
ministers. At the some time there
is also a considerable surplus of
poverty-stricken churches; so that
if theological seminaries turned out
more ministers annually than they
do, the new pastors would find no
churches that could offer them de-
cent livelihood
These are some of the conclusions
reached by Professor Mark A. May
and associates in a comprehensive
study of Protestant theological edu-
cation in the United States ard Can
ada, the report of which has just
been made public by the Institute of
Social and Religious Research of
New York.
The report finds that in the United
States there is an excess of $4,000
feeble churches which are unable to
support the full-time services of
either a trained or an unframed
minister BY trained" minister
is meant one who has graduated
from a seminary, and "the PROBABLE
tiles are that less than fourth of
the Protestant white churches are
employing seminary graduates on
full time; and less than one-sixth
are employing graduates of both
college and seminary on full time"
The report points out that while
it is notably true that most pastors
are not seeking material rewards,
yet every pastor has right to ex-
pect a decent living :. >. especially
those who have invested twenty
years of their lives in formal prepar-
alton" Yet in point of fact 1.-The
average salary of all ministers in
1928 was about equal to the wages
of semi skilled workers" Trained
ministers. the report continues,
serve more efficient churches, they
are more active in UNCONVENTIONAL
and community affairs, and show a
higher level of social insight and eff
fectiveness."

CHILDREN PLAYING IN THE
STREET

with spring weather Turing
children to play in the streets, q
great responsibility is placed upon
motorists and parents, and unless
both take proper precautions, 1884
is likely to see repetition Of the
casualty record that marred 1888"
That warning is issued by the
keystone Club of Maryland as part
of it's program for the promotion Of
safety ON the highways.
Accident records show" said AL
bert E. Buckley, manager of the
Club, "that more than one-third Of
child accidents occur while children
are playing games on streets and
roads heavily travelled by motor ve-
hicles.
"As we see it, responsibility rests
first with parents; they caunot be
unaware of the danger Of unsuper-
vised and unrestricted play in the
highways. But failure Of parents
to keep their children off the streets
does not relieve the motorist of the
solemn duty to do everything hui
manly possible to safeguard children
thus exposed to traffic perils.
"Our best advice to motorists is to
take no chances where children are
concerned. The motorist whose
record is clear of accidents is the
motorist who never assumes that a
child is going to keep out of Lis way.
He is prepared for the unexpected,
and his cautious operations saves
many children from death or injury.
Every motorist can enroll in this
class of careful drivers. The only
qualification is common sense"

While disappointment has been
expressed in some quarters that the
governments recovery program has
not brought about greater degree
of business revival, such an attitude
should not be taken too hastily,
states the Guaranty Trust Co. in its
monthly survey. Remarkable i'm
provement that has taken place is
matter of record.
..Thus far, the New Deal as
whole can hardly be said to have
succeeded or failed. -. The crucial
point will arrive when the Govern
ment ceases to pump huge quantities
of public funds into the economic
system and business is left to sus-
tain itself .....
1.-THE value of the New Deal in
the long run will depend on. Its
capacity to meet maturing obliga
lions without restoring to ruinous
taxation, and on its ability to regd-
late, in the public interest, the vast
and complex economic forces that it
has undertaken to bring Inder CEN
tralized control"

MONEY IN A NUTSHELL

Suppose you own thousand
houses you wish to SELL Suppose
that the standard of value in your
locality is wheat-and that you will
trade house for 1000 bushels of it.
Then suppose that there are a
thousand persons who wish your
houses-but only a hundred Of them
have any wheat. You'll sell a hum
dred houses, have nine hundred left
on your hands-and nine hundred
people who would like 10 buy them
have to go without, because they
lack the accepted medium of ex-
change.
Finally, suppose that it is discov-
cred that these nine hundred people
possess quantities Of barley. This
barley is likewise given a value, in
relation to the value Of wheat, and
the result is that you sell your hous-
es and people obtain lodging.
There is the money problem in
nutshell One reason why interna-
tional trade is languishing is that
millions of people who would like to
buy from other countries are unable
to because they lack the present
medium of exchange-gold. They
live in silver standard countries
and the present low price of silver,
as related to gold. has cut their pur-
chasing power to fraction Of form
or levels.
The move to remonetize silver,
consequently, is simply move to
put buying power into hands which
now lack it--and thus send new
blood through the sluggish veins of
world commerce.-Industrial News

John-.A. McSparran, of Furniss,
State Secretary of Agriculture and
candidate for governor, has announ-
ced his platform, asserting 1.-The I'M
certainty of the public mind caused
by the fear of hidden radicalism" is
bar to sane progress.
McSparran, a candidate on both
the Republican and Democratic tick
cts, said he is opposed ito govern
ment by unsound experimentation, +"
adding:
"If present tendencies are hot cor
rected it may be necessary for the
great middle class of America, to-
gether with all those who are friends
of freedom and the orderly processes
of government to the expression of
the public will, to eventually join to-
gether in new party committed to
these principles and policies.

Cooperation is the keystone OF
agriculture-precisely as it has been
the keystone Of industry for many
years. All the government relief in
the world, no matter how well in
tentioned and how expertly admin
istered, can be of but temporary ben
eft. It can aid-but it cannot cure
a problem. 1t may carry farmers
over lean periods-but it cannot as
sure fat ones. The cooperatives are
permanent They are unaffected by
political considerations. They do
not go out of business with change
of administration. They are here
to stay-and their work never stops,
never waivers.

Peace passing all understanding,
That only the Christ can give;
Trusting forever in Jesus,
For Him let us work and live.
Every promise is ours forever,
