Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Rhode Island Arbor Day: May 8, 1908 From year to year there appears a deeper interest in the observation of Arbor Day, a more intelligent appreciation of its opportunities and a better realization of its purposes. Naturally associated with the study of trees is the study of all nature; with the planting of trees, the planting of shrubbery and vines and the making of school gardens; with the beauty of trees, the beauty of grass and hedge and flower. Arbor Day stands for all that makes for the improvement of school grounds, of homes, of streets, and of parks. Our children should learn the commercial and industrial value of trees, but they should not miss the ethical and aesthetic lessons their truth and beauty teach. As the children, on Arbor Day, may make some spot more beautiful, so should the hearts of the children be made more beautiful by a greater love of all truth and beauty and goodness, with which God has filled the earth. For such end the literary exercises should be arranged. It will be observed that, while trees are the main theme of Arbor Day, a special feature of the annual this year is school gardens. The planting of gardens comes next to the planting of trees. We need every effort that makes for more beauteous and joyous school homes.
