Where there is plenty of space for trees the list of trees may 

 include many other well-known varieties. A school ground with 

 a great variety of trees will afford great advantages for teacher 

 and pupil. They will afford an opportunity to study the charac- 

 teristics of all the trees with which children ought to be familiar. 



Among the groups of flowers, vines, shrubs, and trees, there 

 should be some fruit bearing varieties for the attraction of birds. 



There is nothing that adds more beauty and charm to the 

 scene than cardinals, jays, robins, woodpeckers, and humming 

 birds flitting about among the gorgeous hues of the landscape.
