PINE TREES. 



Jennie C. Gay in Harper's. 



The wind is low and the world is still, 



And sighing trees invite; 

 And oh, how brown the needles lie! 



And oh, the sand is white! 

 And the steady pines reach up and up 



To stillness and to light. 



To stillness and the sun by day, 



The sun so far and far; 

 But when the night across the west 



Lets down its sombre bar 

 The steady pines reach up and up 



To stillness and a star. 



Ah, should you wish to seek the light, 



Whatever it may be, 

 Come dwell where slender stems upreach, 



Aspiring constantly; 

 Come dwell where silence lends the search 



A fine intensity.

The Forestry Service of British Columbia 

 points out that their experience has proven 

 conclusively that forests act as a bar to 

 avalanches. Numbers of cases have come to 

 their notice of this newest argument for con- 

 servation of forests.
