giant elm was planted by the State
secretary Of the Patriotic Sons OF
America in the year 1888, in the month
of December, and is scion or de-
scendant of an elm planted by George
Washington.
Under the parent tree it is said
that Washington established his head
quarters after the battles Of German
town and Brandywine. The tree OF
today protects and guards the old stone
building in which washington lived
during those hectic times.
The American elm belongs to the
genus Ulmus and there are 16 known
species, which are distributed in all
north temperate countries with the
exception Of Western North America.
In the Eastern States there are five
species, in the Southwest, one; in Eu-
rope, three, two of which have ex-
tended their range to Eastern Asia and
Northern Africa. In Southern and
Central Asia there are also repre-
sentatives.
As you know elnas are very valuable

for their timber and have always been
appreciated for their beauty as orna-
mental trees and their value as shade
trees for cattle in wide meadow lands
All elms are known by their graceful,
widespreading vase shape. The tree
reaches height Of rs to 125 feet.
The limbs are slender and the tWigs
pendulous.
In New England the elm is at its
best. There it is tree that has so
many admirers that long avenues have
been planted, and miles of roadsides
are lined with them. Cities, villages
and towns have lovely elns Of which
citizens are proud.
The bark on the trunk is a dark
gray, rough and coarsely ridged; the
twigs are reddish brown and the wood
is the same color. The pale sap
wood and the heavy, coarse, strong
cross-grain of the elm make it hard
to split. 1t is durable in soil and
water. and is used for saddle trees.
barrels and kegs; for flooring and
shipbuilding, piles and fumes.
The flowers come in March before
the leaves. They are in clusters, per-
felt and greenish-red They do not
attract much attention. In May the
fruit is ready to fly with the wind
The nutlet is equipped with wings,
and when 1t goes off for a ride it is
likely to be dropped in some place far
from the old home where the little
seed. though landing on its head, puts
out a foot, or, more truthfully, a tiny
root. Working slowly to get its hold
upon the earth, gradually an elm will
make its way toward the sun. A small,
inconspicuous brown seed that some
day will be another beautiful elm that
may be seen for miles away is slowly
accomplishing the work 1t was meant
to do.

his absence She would be determined
to get the most out of living without

No sense in wishing they had never
quarreled No use in regretting his
outburSt of temper, his cold, quiet
stubbornness. No point in even recall
ing, remorsefully, the hour he h, :
spent after leaving her, at his club,
composing the letter in which, with
martyrlike air, he had pointed out
the hopelessness of their going on to-

She was across the way, at the Fall
mouths, attending a bridge. That
was like Ruth, too. Grim. More stub
born than he. Determined to keep up
appearances, no matter what.
He had stood outside a moment,
watching her through the window,
knowing even then the first pangs Of
remorse. But anger, injured pride,
were still hot in his veins. He had
gone into the house, left the letter
on the living room table, flung things
into his bag, left.
A ND now-sitting alone in bleak
hotel room in this far-aWay city,
ram beating against the window
this place where he had hoped to
spend week in luxurious relaxation,
the pangs Of regret and remorse were
torturing his soul. He was to blame.
OF course he was. Everything that
happened was his fault The happi-
ness that they had shared together
more than Offset the quarrels resulting
from their stubbornness.
But it was too late now. There was
never a going back. You couldn't re-
claim those happinesses. Not after
what had happened. Oh, he might re-
turn and ask forgiveness and be re-

There would always be that barrier

Like Gagged animal He glared out at
