Cutting down trees spo,ls th beauty off he landscape. Ishould wot like to ve where there were no trees. 2. There are few birds where there are no trees. They have no place to make their homes. 3. Taking away the trees takes away the pretection from our tender truit trees 4. Where there are notrees the snow melts and goes off too rapidly; tee moisture that should sink into tne soil is carried away into floods. 5. Because our forests are taken away we have severe droughts every year. 6. The trees give us lumber, fuel, wood pulp for newspaper, cork, bark fur tanning, wild fruits, nuts, resin, turpentine, oils and various products for medicine. 7. One full grown elm tree gives out fitteen tons of moisture in twenty- four hours. A large sugflower plant gives off three pints of water in one day. 8. We should have greater extremes of heat and cold if it were not for our forests. 9.

The first sermon in the world was preached at the Creation. It was a Divine protest against Hurry. It was a divine object 1csion of perfect law, peifect plan, perfect order, perfect inethod planned, scheduled and completed were followed by—rest. Whether we accept the story as literal or as figur- ative, as the accouut of successive days or ages comprising millions of vears, matters little if we but learn the lesson, The educational system of to-day is a mon uw vental i: stitu ie i dedicated to Hurry. The children are forced to go through a series of studies that sweep the circle of all human wisdom. They are given everything that the ampitious ignorance of the age can force into their minds, ‘they are taugit thing but the essentials— ow io use their senses and how to thnk. ‘Their mincs be.@ne congested by a great lwass Of unuigesteG facts; and stiit the cru:}, laborous forcing goes on.

It brings immediate respec’, honor and prosperity. ‘Lhe boy who is known to be truthful, known to be faithful, and trustworthy in every place is !ook- ed upon with warm frfendship and ad- miration by pecp'e whom he does not suspect of such senti- ments toward him.
