THE BEECH TREE
BY REV. 'DUNCAN McTAVISH
Across the lane from the 'Slippery,.•
Elm' trees and in the 'corner of •the.
back field, stood an old Beech tree;
Its -branches spread out widely :inas-
much as there was plenty of open
space. In its shade the cattle lay.
on a hot summer's day waiting the
time when• someone would .come to
take them to the barn for milking
1—ortheld7farnr.consi
ted of nice .straight grained timber.
that split very easily. The 'beech.
was ofa different type and.was'
tough and hard ' to manufacture:. But
this tree was not noted for its tim-
ber but .rather ' for the romantic role
it played`. in the community. Before
my day, in school; there.was a
Reader with a :poem entitled."Just
Twenty Years Ago." It recounted
!many things that had happened in
;the past' and.some of the lines re-.
ferred to an 'old tree on which some
lovers had.+ut their names ''Twenty
Years Ago.:" `

This beech . tree served • a
purpose: More than ' one shy youth..
had ckrved';on that tree his, own
initials and underneath the initials ..
of sortie .young girl, who in his
boyish mind he fancied to be the..
"greatest'. The. tree has',long since.
disappeared as,.the gravel pit reach-
ed out for new areas but some of
its memories still' linger on.
In. that. .same field farther 'to the
back, was;a fairly good -Sized
beech grove..Here in the Fall of
the ' year •we gathered, beech nuts.
which w ' toted for th'e winter•.
It was not only good fun to "go a
nutting"., as we spread some
blankets, under. the bees and then
proceeded. to' shake ;the nuts upon
them, but it was.profitable in a
day.when we -didn't have nut shops
to tempt' u's with their �merchan
dise. Those:were days which '
called for'self-reliance..''Do it
yourself",had. not as yet become
tine slogan it is today ,The fact is,
We did do it ourselves,:'to our: own`
satisfaction and to the satisfaction .
of others. That tree and the grove,
are gentle reminders- that there
were, "Some, good old days".
