Trees and How
to Know Them
How many boys and girls know th
trees? Of course they have heard of the
oak. beech and pine, but which Is which?
That Is the rub Xow it doc not requlr, V
a vast amount of knowledge to be able to j
j identify the trees and bushes that giv
j-haractcr to our landscape. Once learned
I they are not easily forgotten.
frees must be studied from several dlf-
j fercnL points of consideration. Were you 1
for example, to ask a country boy or girl I
with whom you might be walking to tell
you the names of the trees in a wood on
the -lope of a hill not far off the answer
would be guided by the shape and color
of the masses presented to the eye. s
to trees close at hand, the signs would In
most cases he more simple, because there
would be no leaves in summer, or if n
(winter the branches and twigs, to ny
j nothing of the bark
Bark Varies.
Although a person brought up In the
country can usually detect an ordinary
tree or bush at a glance. If he were asked
to give his reasons he might for a few
minuter have difficulty in answering In-
teillglbly. The character of the bark va
ries in different trees, this in itself with
out any thing c'se would determine the
species or the tree. But every tree haj
also a distinct character of foliage both in
mass and Individual leaf. There Is also
color to guide one. and this to a great ex
tent depends on the month. Take the oak,
for instance, it is a late tree and Its light
green masses In June are beautiful.
In order thoroughly to know the treet
!one should be somewhat of an artist and
sketch them all t;e year round. It is
I really a delight to watch the leafage of a
j tree from its earliest appearance in tiny
buds to the fall of the foliage in late
I a utumn
Take the- poplar a an example. It it
that ery tab. non-spreading steeple-ke
tree. Its seems and leaves are ashen gray,
w mi a silver lining under each leaf. Th
aspen, by the way. is sometimes callcu the
trembling poplar, its leaves even in calro
days are constantly on tho quiver. These
are hung on long stalks and thus catch -the
slightest hreath of air. A
But theje tall poplars in the spring are
hung all over with catkin, which fall ana , j
cover the ground with what the children
call caterpillars; then the first flush of
leaf appears on the trees not green, but
of a golden hue; they get green after
ward, bright at first, then duller and
finally, In autumn, crisp and lemon-yellow
streaked with a brigntcr green,
The leaves of the horse chestnut are oi
an intensely bright green in early spring,
hanging downward, and the wind whis
pers through them as if they were silk
Later on the stand more horizontally and I ,
the color changes to a dark green.
The colors of the leaves on dwarf or j
young trees that form part of hedges ar
often totally different in tint from thos I
of the older and bigger trees of the sam
species. J'l

The yew tree is uncommon in this coun

Don't Pay To Dearly for Success j fe
W e cannot always he at our best, it
matters not how hard we may try Days
will come to us when the plans we have
made will be knocked into a cocked hat,
when our efforts will seem as naught, and
i when everything will seem to combine to
gether to prevent our carrying out the
programme of the day.
A great French writer has said that the
best work of an author Is brought abou'
through the. digressions from the plan of
work with which he started out So, per
haps, we may take comfort to our souls
that this is so In other work as wen a3 ij
writing. After all. could we at the be
ginning of the day map out the day's work
and carry it forward to the end without
a break in our plans we might go far,
but that our journey would lead Ua alway s
to the best Is to be doubted
There arc tlinr. nrlinn II lo nAAtrnrv tr.r
ihoae w ho ride along the Kind's highway to
go at a swift pace, taking no note of the
Mowers that bloom along the pathway,
stopping out to scn.se the beauty of the
cariy morn, tho .splendor of the noonday,
or the Klory of the- sunset, pausing not in
the swift Journey from the morn to the
eve for aught, but dashing past all obsta
cles, making swift to the goal
But we cannot expect to make of llf
one continuous race course. There are
other things besides prizes to strive for,
and we must be content if we win a tro
phy now and then, ancr not expect that
each day will offer us some special
premium.
Indeed, in the great quest upon which
each soul must set out for himself, therf
would be little of adventure If each day
We rode fast and hard from point to point
In the journey, without divergence Into by
paths which lead away from the main
road, sometimes into the forest of diffi
culty, hut often as not into the pleasant
rrard.-n of fancy.

Swift Pace or Slow
l 1
It" may be that we know the prize that
awaits us at the end of the swift race
we are making. But it may be. too, that If
we pause now and then in our mad rush
to reach the goal and take time to wan
der aside from the beaten path to gather
the lavish blooms, to drink in the son
that sounds above us, ruttincr our wa
through the growth that would hold ua
back, we may find ourselves at last be
fore some glorious citadel which offers us
a high adventure- and It mav even be that
we oh.-ill find a contest ready to hand In
the winning of which there will be a
greater glorv and for which there is set a
higher award than any that follow the
path that leads straight and nndeviatlng
from the beginning to the end.
However ambitious we may be, however
determined to win our own Way, however
Imbued with tht power to drive forward
If we listen we shall hear voices that ,:al)
to us along the way sometimes laughing
voices calling to us in comradely lashlon
sad voices, sometimes, which should wh
pause to listen, will touch our hearts with
their pathetic cadenres. urgent Voltes oft
times. 3eeming to us Intent upon the'raee
like the voices of -o many enemies to draw
us away to annihilation.
But the prices of life are all not at the
end of the Journey. Sometimes they come

Sometimes, if we stoop to the blotioroJ
