HENRY M. BOHN, Business ROBERT H. KLINE, Assistant Business Manager Manager “I do love a good tree. There it stands so strong and sturdy, and yet so beautiful—a very type of the best sort of man. How proudly it lifts its bare head to the winter storms, and with what a full heart it rejoices when the spring was come again! How grand its voice is. too, when it talks with the wind; a thousand aeolian harps cannot equal the beauty of the sighing of a great tree in leaf. All day it points to the sunshine, and all night to the stars: and thus passionless, and yet full of life, it endures through the cen- turies—come storm, come shine—drawing its sustenance from the deep bosom of its mother earth, and, as the slow years roll by, learning the great mysteries of growth and decay. And so on and on through generations; outliving individuals, customs, dynasties—all save the landscape it adorns and human nature.” —H. Rider HaOCARD NATURE’S SECRETS by C. Clyde Fisher.
