TREES
By °PEW'
Perhaps at no time of the year are
trees more beautiful in their green
dress than they are to -day. Last
year at this time they were, to a
large extent, a pitiful sight, but this
.year the majority a them are back
to their aceustoMed foliage.
We all have in mind atree of some
'variety associated with our childhood

realize the neee.ssity of this as we

Many of those who have lived 'n
country places visualize trees which
have played an important part in
their lives and how pleasant it is to
think about them. They are like old
friends. At times they give shade on
a lawn and so often happy hours are
spent under their leafy branches.
The study of trees is a real branch
of Education but although we have
never made this part of our work
yet that 'does hot prevent us from
being casual observers of the past
and present.
In these day* many trees are being
planted to Mark some hig event and m
often they outlast onuments of
„Stone. '
As one looks through a forest one
is impressed with the erectuess of the
trees. They seem to'be all reaching
up to catch h'glimpse of the heavens.
It is seldom a, crooked tree is found

We hare M mind a tree. It had

did not prevent it frombearing beaut-
iful and profuse blossoms in June and
,
That bend in the trunk of the tree
may be compared to sin in early life.
There are many of those who started
out wrong, Who have turned to Christ,
and although 'perhaps the thought of
their early sin may be the means of
keeping them from rising as high as
they might ;have done in their Christ-
en life ;yet they Can do a marvellous
work for their 'Master.

There are times When trees are
Uprooted by a hurricane but this con-
dition does not often happen.
Trees as a rule are'etately. We at
times wonder jast, what these old
trees could tell if they were able to
talk. Would we want a tree which
is in our vicinity to tell all it knows
about us? Many of us would hide
our heads in shame.
