the club threw ils entire
strength to the accomplish
ment. It is too long a story
(,• rei mint, but suffice if to say
that tin movement resulted in
the planting of trees along all
of the streets then opened in
the townsite, with an ordinance
providing for their care at
m .1.0 ipal expense.
i>i ring the same period, the
• .*• bro ight about the plant
ing of trees and shrubbery iiiHOi
the school grounds, and through
the county federation aroused
enthusiasm throughout the coun
ty which resulted in the plant
ing if a great many tree-,
though not nearly so many as
had been hoped tor. Many ot
the trees died, of t ourse, but at
all times the club women of El
Centro have je: louslv guarded
the street trees and insisted on
the replanting of new ones to
fid in the vacant- spots.
The club was also a great in
fluence in the organization of
the first city library which af
terwards became a Carnegie in
