"ROADS OF REMEMBRANCE" 



1335 



Louisiana has been planted with Victory Oaks. Governor 

 Pleasant of Louisiana, and a party of motor enthusiasts, 

 have just completed a run from New Orleans to Winnepeg. 

 Memorial tree planting this fall will be done on a bigger 

 scale than ever before. Inquiries have been coming into 

 the Association for three months in regard to proper plant- 

 ing and the registration of the trees on the national honor 

 roll. From every section of the country requests are coming 

 for the bronze marker to identify the individual tree. East 

 St. Louis has big plans under way for tree planting, and 

 plans are going forward to interest the entire city by plant- 

 ing memorial trees and thus allowing the citizens themselves 

 to have a big part in beautifying the city. Mayor Henry B. 

 Chase of Huntsville, Alabama, has just informed the Asso- 

 ciation that the 

 Grace Club, of 

 which Mrs. 

 Owen Graham 

 is president, 

 plans a memori- 

 al avenue for 

 fifty-four boys 

 from that coun- 

 ty who lost their 

 lives. The town 

 of South west 

 LaGrange, Geor- 

 gia, has memori- 

 al tree planting 



plans under way, so Mayor C. O. Coleman ad- 

 vises. The Bingham, Mexico Chapter of the 

 Daughters of the American Revolution, of which 

 Mrs. S. J. Whitney is the regent, has planted a 

 large number of memorial trees. The Michigan 

 Agricultural College has dedicated 36 trees in 

 honor of men from that school and Prof. A. K. 

 Chittenden has sent in the names for enrollment. 

 The city of Dallas will take up memorial tree 



The picture in the center is of the famous elm at Huntington, Indiana, which was saved by changing the plans of the Christian Science Church 

 there. The picture in the oval and the one below, by the Times-Star, show the possibilities of a "Road of Remembrance" planted with Memorial 

 Trees, similar to the plan Cincinnati now has under consideration.
