The Tree Planters of America A glorious idea, 

 and I believe it is so good and grand that it will be 

 carried out by its own virtues. It is one of the finest 

 things ever proposed to the American people." 

 James T. Du Bois 



(American Consul-General at Singapore.) 



" With distinct pleasure and full appreciation, I have 

 read your plan for the organization of the * The Tree 

 Planters of America.' It is the best suggestion I have 

 seen on the matter considered. The conception seems 

 really inspired. 



u To organize the American boys in such thorough 

 and systematic way, and under such splendid leadership 

 in good work, is an endeavor that cannot be too highly 

 commended. 



" Aside from the great', benefits that will certainly 

 come through such wise plans for reforestation, the 

 principles of patriotic devotion incidentally inculcated 

 will thrill the nation, and from border to border will 

 pulse as one great throbbing heart, loyalty and love for 

 the future of the whole country." 



William J. Northen, Atlanta 



(Formerly Governor of Georgia.)
