MEDITATION "He who floats with the eurrent, who does not guide himself according to higher principles, who has no ideal, no convictions ? such a man is a mere article of the world's furniture ? a thing moved, instead of a living and moving being ? an echo, not a voice. The man who has no inner life is the slave of his surroundings, as the barometer is the obedient servant of the air at r^st, and the weather-cock the humble servant of the air in motion." Trees And Forests Special emphasis is placed each year on an appreciation of the true value of tree? and for ! ests, on the occasion of Arbor Day, observed each year on Friday following the fifteenth day, of March. 1 his year the day is on March 22. 1 A state law dealing with public education, sets the day aside for this special observance. Unwise cutting practices and forest fires are! the greatest enemies to our forests. The chil dren of today are the grown people of tomorrow and it is only fair that each child have the oppor tunity of knowing something of his or her natural surroundings. Among the suggestions for the observance are: Planting of 250 pine seedlings in forest formation, 7x7 feet apart each way. Planting of a shade tree on the school grounds, preferably a native hardword, naming it a class tree or a memorial to a teacher or outstanding student lost in the World War. Oaks, elms, linden are among the most satisfactory of the larger trees. A class or school ceremony may be held around a large and beautiful tree in which certain students call attention to its needs (soil, water, food, sunshine) and to its gifts (shade, beauty, wind-break, fuel, lumber, etc. ) 1 he planting ot our own State h lower, a dogwood tree, might be arranged in coop eration with the Garden Club of North Carolina or other local organization. The recent "Dogwood Week." plantings spon sored by the Garden Club of North Caro lina ran into the thousands of young trees. The beginning of a campaign for the acquisition and establishment of a School Practice F orest where a class in economics, history, or agriculture may work out, by experiment and demonstration, the advan tages of better practices in the growing, cutting and marketing of timber as a crop.
