“

Trees —Their Beauty and Their Meaning 7 think that 1 shall never see A poem lovely as a tree: For poems are made by fools like me, But only God can make a tree.” Thus the noble soul of our own Pennsylvania poet. Joyce Kilmer, gives expression to his feelings. All of us cannot be poets; few have been blessed with that enviable power of pouring forth their thoughts and emotions in such beautiful language as to inspire others. Every one cannot touch the hearts and minds of his fellow-men, and elevate their thoughts, by his delineation of Nature’s charms. Nevertheless, in each of us there are just as lofty and as beautiful sentiments as those of the poet, for there can be no one with soul so dead as to be irresponsive to the beauties of Nature. So, almost any of us can. with little effort, derive some pleasure and enjoyment from the consideration of the many aspects of our woody friends. We can discern beauty in the mighty oak and in the feeble sapling; in the luxuriant maple and in the lifeless chestnut; in the snow-covered pine and in the bleak hawthorn. Each seems to be a living representation of some fine doctrine in the code of Life. Trees, somehow or other, seem to be human: they seem to have character and tradition and personality. We aspiring graduates, throughout our scholastic careers, could always, if we only had the will, look upon trees as inspiring symbols of a really worthwhile life. Their gnarled roots are but figures of deep-seated traditions which we should cherish. In their stately trunks and sturdy branches we could see mirrored the high principles and ideals of a productive life. Their clean-cut outlines suggest the progressive and forward-looking ambitions which we should foster. Their magnificent foliage should represent the fruits of diligent toil and care. Their cheery attitude and softly chanted songs in the wind can point out the personal satisfaction and genuine happiness which one derives from the right kind of life—a life of service to his fellow-men. —James A. Marsh
