Trees Become Emblems For Many States Washington U. P Too busy with other things during the war and the readjustment period after it, the states are once again wax ing sentimental over the merits of their various trees. The U. S. Forest Service said that of the more than 40 states with state trees, about 20 legisla tures have proclaimed an official tree. It began in 1894 when Rhode Is land adopted the maple as its state tree. That action came shortly after the students in the smallest state had made the maple their choice. Next to take official action was Illinois, which named the "native oak" in 1908. In 1919 Texas pho claimed the pecan its state tree. That was in recognition of, and possibly to advertise the fact that Texas produces one quarter of the nation's pecan crop. Pine Popular Almost all other legislative ac tion has been since 1931, when Pennsylvania claimed the Canadian hemlock. The " Pine Tree State." Maine, naturally has adopted the white pine, a s have Idano an" Minn.mta Hut Vermont whose state seal, like Maine's features a ; hig pine, generally claims the sugar maple as its state tree. j Other industrial trees are repre sented by the choice in Oregon of the Douglas fir and in Arkansas of ; the shortleaf pine. The popularity of the oak has j been on the rise in the last few years. Two years ago Connecticut lawmakers adopted the white oak j r . r f t l.rti.. 1 in recognilion oi ine iaim- u "i" Charter Oak. Hack in 1941, Mary land passed a bill making the while oak its state tree, too, thinking of its huge Wye Oak on the Eastern Shore. j TREE AND FLOWER ! The southern magnolia provides I the official tree and flower in both I Louisiana and Mississippi. That is I true also of the apple in Michigan and the hawthorn in Missouri. The latest clamor for an official state tree is in New York, where tree lovers and nurserymen are pushing quercus borealis, the state ly red oak. If the Albany leeislalure will pass the proposed statute, long Empire State acceptance of the hard or maple sugar will be at an end.

Fined In Canton Police Court Traffic violations took up most of Judge R. R. Mease's time in Canton Police Court last Monday. A defendant accused of drunk driving and driving while his lic ence was revoked was fined $200 and ordered to pay court costs of $11 more. A reckless driving count cost another motorist a $100 fine and $11 in court assessments. Nine accused of public drunken ness were ordered to part with the amount of court costs ranging from $11 to $11.45 (two of them were charged 45 cents for a meal each while in jail . Two defendants involved in min or accidents were assessed court costs of $10.70 and $10.50 on traf fic violation charges. Driving through the red stop light set two motorists back fines of $10 each and court costs of an other $$10 each, while a third had to pay $5 of court costs. Two defendants accused of un lawful possession of legal liquor were released after paying fines of $10 each and court costs of $10 each also.
