COBBLER MEETS WATERLOO IN HARDING SHOES Says President Wished Repairs Made in Impossible Way. ■WASHINGTON, April B.—A pair of shoes worn by the president of the United States means nothing in the life of F. Sumner. Positively not, Sumner emphasized. He made a statement to this effect as he stood in his little, bnt busy, shoe repairing shop, a square away from the White House after the sensational fact had become known that he had declined to fix President Harding s golf shoes. He is the first shoemaker in the history of the nation to “turn down a president.” Although not officially designated as such, he may be called “shoemaker extraordinary to the White House.” He has repaired the shoes which have shod presidential feet since Cleveland's term. “I have no objection to repairing Mr. nardlng’s shoes and any one else’s,” said Mr. Sumner, “but Mr. Harding wanted bis golf shoes fixed In an impossible way.” There was a pause and then Sumner, who is a swarthy complexioned little man with a moustache like H. G. Wells’, said rather fiercely: “I can’t do the impossible for the President of the United States or Babe Ruth. “Presidents are nice folks, all right, but as customers they are no different to me than any one else,” Mr. Sumner continued. He disclosed the following facts to be recorded for posterity: President Harding has the biggest foot of any of the seTen Presidents who have patronized Sumner, beginning with Grover Cleveland. “His foot's the longest and Taft’s the widest," said Sumner, by way of explanation. Also his shoes are the ‘nicest.’ Roosevelt was the hardest on shoes. All of Mr. Harding's six immediate predecessors in the White House, "ran down’’ their heels. all through life and take added Interest in its welfare. While the planting of trees for many years was considered only from a cultural standpoint, today such work has great economic aspect in view of the de-

pleted timber stocks of the nation and particularly In Indiana where the bulk of timber used is imported. The commercial aspect looms big when one considers that If each of 500,000 school children would plant one tree and all these trees lived to maturity, the lumber these trees would produce in later years would have a market value of at least $8,000,000. It should be remembered also that during the lives of the trees they would be constantly a source of comfort and benefit. CARKFCL SELECTION IS IMPORTANT. In planting trees great care should be exercised to select trees that are long lived, free of Insect enemies and disease and that possess a high commercial value. Os the shade tree type, the sugar and black maple are among the best. in addition the sycamore, pin and whits oak may be used. Away from the smoke and heat, especially the heat arising from paved streets of cities, the tulip, white ash, linn, oaks, white and red elm, black

Sugar and black maple are adaptable to any portion of Indiana, and where a small, round-topped tree is desired, the Norway maple is given preference. After the trees are planted they should be protected and mulched When planted the lower branches should be pruned off, or all or most of the side branches cut back. Never top a tree at planting, warns the State forester. In the event the tree is too spindling it may be cut
