How To Select
Proper Shade
Tree For Lawn

The current emphasis on plant
ing only low-growing trees in SUI
burban areas is folly" according
to tree authority.
"A little tree is not a shade
tree says Don Cantwell of the
Bartlett Tree Expert Co. 1T is a
mistake to urge new property
owners to stereotype their homes
and landscaping with trees that
will never lift their crowns more
than 20 or 80 feet high.
Mr.. Cantrell believes small trees
should be mixed with bigger ones,
as nature has done. The best trees
to plant are those native to your
region. A tree should be selected
with these things. in mind:
ID Will it have adequate room
when it reaches ultimate size? t2)
Will grass grow under it and will
it be tree that does not con-
tinually drop fruit, twigs and bark?
CD Will it have beauty in full leaf,
autumna1 celebration and attrac-
ton when its branches are naked?
(4) Will it withstand storms and
its upkeep (pruning and spraying)
be not excessive? (5) Will it give
good shade?
Small trees. says Mr.. Cantwell,
have their place. especially the
Towering dogwoods (every plot
should have one). birches (if
planted within their range), sor-
rel flor late bloom and autumn
color, but the stalwart oak and
maple, elm and ash, hickory and
linden must not be forgotten
Lifting ones eyes to the top of
a mighty tree can be ennobling to
mans mind" says Mr.. Cantwell.
Little minds look down. We must
set a style in trees that will lose
this exhilerating majesty of ma
t:-ro."
These are recommended lawn
trees for different heights:
Small Ito 30 feet tall F'lowering
Dogwood. Magnolia, Washington
Hawthorne, Japanese Maple, Flow

Birches. European White Birch.

Iowa Girls Solve
Own Problems
AP Newsfeature

UNDERWOOD, Iowa-A dull t S
concerned with Juvenile problems
might encourage the Lucky
'Leven" treatment in their own
communities.
The Lucky Leven is a group of
Underwood girls ranging in age
from IL to 16, who decided about
a year ago to form club because
there isn't much for teen-age girls
to do here"
The club was formed with II
members, no constitution, bylaws,
rules or regulation, except that
membership be limited to IL, and
the goal be community service plus
companionship and fun.
They meet each Monday night,
unless school or church activity
intereferes. AT three meetings a
neediework projects - and CAB
Meetings rotate among the various
homes, in alphabetical order. On
the fourth Monday they have fun,
and concentrate on sociability.
Their community service pro-
jects are planned we'll in advance.
Last Fourth of July they operated
a concession stand and made more
than $50, which was donated to a
community building fund. Last
Halloween they sponsored party
for all the young people in town,
and kent 40 boyS and girls off the
street and out of trouble.
Recently the girls sponsored a
bake sale, turning the 800 pro-
ceeds over to the band uniform
fund at Underwood School,
They have made bazaar items for
the Red Cross, and plan a sale of
the needlework they have made.
Their current goal is to be
guests on a TV show where they
can win a cash prize to swell their
community service funds.
