8o ARBOR DAY 



. Remove the rickety fences; tear down the dilapi- 

 dated buildings and sheds; send the tin cans, broken 

 boxes, and cinder piles the way of all useless things; 

 clear the yards; in the place of the aforetime rub- 

 bish, grow things. This idea means good taste, at 

 home as well as at school; neat lawns, whether the 

 premises be large or small; clean roads; clean streets; 

 clean alleys; the abatement of nuisances; the eleva- 

 tion of farm as well as of city life; the cultivation 

 of interest in the moral, intellectual, and physical 

 welfare of the community; and the creation of enthu- 

 siasm and love for the beautiful and the good.
