GIVES TIPS ON TREE PLANTING Special Service Expert Issues Suggestions for Benefit of Citizens. Dangers of mining the beauty of property by improper planting of trees is pointed out by George E. Morgan, head of this special service of the city park department, in a bulletin issued today. The planting advice is as follows: “The planting of tree belts or strips of trees on small places of equal or Irregular width, so as to confine the view to the place itself is always very inappropriate. Such planting has the tendency to exclude all perspective of distance and make the garden such that nothing can be seen or obtained of what is to be enjoyed without. Nothing can be more monotonous than such a screen in which the trees are nearly all tto same age, height and width. They destroy all variety, as to whatever view is taken, the same hard and uniform boundary meets the sight. There are very few layouts, surrounded by bad and objectionable views so as to allow no perspective of what lies beyond that , are desirable. In such instances the | right effect may only be obtained by planting specimens of different height end habits. "A high hard fence that confines a ..lace is even more lauity than the tree belt or hard straight screen. It has a harder, more forbidding and exclusive appearance and the upper line is much more convincingly stiff. Such places *eem t obe labeled with a ‘Stay Out' sign that is not lost even to the amateur. They should never be used unless absolutely indispensable and when used should have the hardness and harshness of their lines broken with the planting of vines that will cover them. “Whenever, as is frequently the case, It is desired to screen off bad objects or views, it may be done by planting a variety of taller growing trees and shrubbery and facing with medium or smaller growing varieties. The lines never should be straight and formal, but should vary in thickness to the size of the general layout. “Those citizens contemplating planting are urged to consult the special service, department public parks for free suggestions and advice." WILSON’S HUMOR HELPED HIM TO BEAR BURDENS (Continued From Page One.) another visitor inquiring of the English clergyman, who was standing near the door. ‘Who is to preach this afternoon?' “ ‘I have forgotten his name,” replied the clergyman, ‘but he is the bishop of North Dakota, one of the British provinces.’ ” The bishop of North Dakota disillusioned his audience before he finished his sermon, and reduced the siae of the British empire in the mind of the English rector by subtracting the lusty American commonwealth be represented. PCX HIS OWN* ISLAND FIRST. The exaggerated idea of the importance of one's own land which any people is likely to entertain was illustrated in another story the President told us one day. The Ordney islands are mere dots on the map, but. according to the president, an Orkney preacher of Intensely local patriotism used to pray Sunday after Sunday for the blessing of God upon “the people of this land, and of the adjacent Islands of England, Scotland and Ireland.” But a story the President liked better than either of these was one that was told about a conversation between Spring-Rice, the British ambassador, and Captain Harts, who. at the . time, was superintendent of buildings and grounds Spring-Rice hail visited the President and. following his visit, was being shown some of the White House portraits by Captain Harris. As the British ambassador departed he turned to Captain Harris and asked him: “What is the White House made ofi” “Virgiula sandstone,” answered the Captain. “But I didn’t know Virginia sandstone was white,” said Spring-Rice. “Nor is it,” the Captain replied. “You see we had to paint the stones.” “Paint them ? Why in the world would you have to paint good red sandstone?” exclaimed the astonished diplomat. “To cover up the.black places that remained after the burning of the buildlng.“ Captain Harts explained.

“Ah, so the building was burned, was it? And what caused the fire?” inquired the British ambassador. “The British,” said Captain Harts. “Oh!” said Spring-Bice. An incident happened li the Navy Department shortly before the World War began, of which this story reminds me. Sir Robert Hadfield, an English expert in ordnance, was waiting *o see me about projectiles, and my aide was showing him the trophies which adorn the office of the Secretary of the Na7y—and, by the way, that office is by far the finest in Washington, and finer than any Government office I saw in Europe. Among the trophies displayed were the beautiful sliver gifts which had been presented to Commodore Hull for his eminent service. My aide pointed to these with much pride. ANOTHER PCS AT BRITAIN'S EXPENSE. “Hull? Hull?” mused Sir Robert. ‘Name sounds familiar, but I confess I can not recall what he did,” and he turned to the naval officer for enlightenment. It came promptly. “He did the English, Sir Robert,” answered my aide. The British ordnance expert saw the point and laughed heartily. In the days when the President was trying to straighten out the Mexican situation, the policy of “watchful waiting,” so much misunderstood and so frequently misrepresented, provided the graphers and jokesmiths with material which, they worked and overworked. The criticism and ridicule to which his program was subjected by his political opponents did not disturb him. He had certain aims upon which bis purpose was definitely set. He was resolved that his policy should be free from selfish interests, either national or individual, and that he would not permit the United States to aid Huerta in making “government by assassination” a success. WILSON CRITICIZED BY “INTERESTS.” The President was sharply criticized by the “interests” behind Huerta, because of their disappointment over his refusal to recognize the assess’n. Later he was criticized because he gave the Mexicans a eaance to control tlieir ;wn government, nhindered and uninfluenced by interests. British og American, which were eager to exploit Mexican resources. It is my own opinion, offered here on the side, that if Mexico possessed no oil or mineral wealth to excite the cupidity of outsiders she would long ago have able to obtain a stable government. The President was patient with Mexico. He wrote several notes —State papers they were and will hold their p'ace among the great documents of American ’diplomacy—in the hope of reaching an amicable adjustment of differences. Bat his critics made fun of the note writing and one day, after he had read to us one of these letters, a member of the Cabinet said to him: “Mr. President, do you think your letters will produce the desired result:” HE COCLD LAUGH AT HIMSELF. The President's sense of humor was quite equal to enjoying a Joke at his own expense. He could laugh at himself. He was satisfied he was doing the right [ thing, but he was not absolutely certain it would bring the results he sought. He could get the viewpoint of the public and or his critics on the series of notes he had addressed to ?l“xico. So he met the question of the Cabinet member which the following story: “Once upon a time a gentleman who had a garden was greatly annoyed because his neighbor's chickens would fly | over the fence and eat or scratch up his young vegetables, ne told his neighbor of the bad behavior of his chickens, and received the promise that it should nut happen again. But it did happen again and again, and finally, in a resolve to protect his vegetables, he wrote a sharp note to the neighbor demanding that his garden be protected from marauding chickens. The neighbor was distressed and wrote In reply promising that the garden would no more be molested by the chickens. “The very next day after receiving the written promise of protection, the neigh- [ lior saw his garden being literally devoured by the neighbor's chickens. Pa tienee had ceased to be a virtue. In righteous wrath he strode over to his | neighbor's house, and demanded to know why he had not kept his promise. WARNED HIS CHICKENS; THEY' DIDN’T HEED. “ ‘Yon don’t say,’ answered the neighbor, ’that my chickens are in your garden again, do you?’ “ ‘Come and see,’ said the now irate owner, and there were chickens busy destroying the garden. “ ‘Well, I never was so surprised In my life,’ said the owner of the chickens. ’To show you my determination to protecc I your gardpn, when I received your letter ' I called all my chickens together and

read them your letter and solemnly charged them not to go into your garden again. I am astonished and humiliated to find, after hearing me read your letter, they did not heed the command and stay out of your garden.’ ” I never knew the President, before, during, or since the war, when he did not have a pat limerick to enliven the incident under discussion, or to change the subject, if the debate needed to be closed or given anew turn. I had returned to one Cabinet meeting from Savannah, where the President’s father had at one time served as pastor of the Presbyterian church— I think it was during the war between* the States. I gave him a message from some friends of his youthful days, and, the meeting being over and no one else being present, be became reminiscent and talked so interestingly that I long overstayed my time. What a story it would make, that intimate sidelight recollection of scenes and incidents, if a dictagraph had taken down his tender reflections. REMINDS HIM OF A LIMERICK. As I rose to go, President Wilson said: “You know, a limerick about a town always takes hold of me so that when 1 think of the town the limerick is sure to come into my mind. Did you ever hear the limerick of the young man of Savannah ?” 1 had not heard it. “It reminds me of nothing < nected with my knowledge of Savannah, but when tou spoke of the city this limerick leaped up—it runs like this: “ 'There was a young man of Savannah, Who fell on a vacant banana. The words th'. he said when he fell on his bead. Would not do for a Sunday-school banner.’ ” Some drab days—and we had those days, particularly when we were in the twilight zone of neutrality, and after the war, when a shell-shocked world forgot the vision splendid with which we entered the war—l recalled that the only Presidents who ever condncted a great war were a'ike in two things—they had infinite patience in the efforts they made to secure what they believed in without resort to war; and. too, they obtained relief from* the terrible pressure which lay heavily on both, bv the possession of a fund of stories and a humor that was racy of the soil. It did more than bring relief from heavy burdens to both of these great war Presidents; it gave cheer and relief also to those they had called to be partners and coworkers in the task that often bore quite as heavily upon cabinet members as upon their chief.

CUBA TO TALK VIA TELEPHONE Local Electric Club Will Hear ‘Long Distance Speech/ Members of the Electric Club, at their annual smoker tomorrow night at the Chamber of Commerce, will hear a roll call of telephone operators relaying service across a space of 2.150 mi'es before they listen to the long dtstance address of C. W. Ricker, traction and power operator, in Havana, Cuba. Plans have been made for Frank Wampler, of the Indiana Bell Telephone Company, a member of the club, to call the roll in establishing the circuit over which Mr. Ricker will make his speech. Mr. Wampler will cal! A. T. & T. officials in Pittsburgh, New York, Washington, Jacksonville, Key West and Havana in lining up the circuit. Each member of the club will have a small watch receiver at his seat, and a central operating set will lie placed at the desk of the presiding officer for the meeting. The club is believed tc be the first organization In the history of telephony to hear a set address over the long distance and cable wires. “The American Telephone anil Telegraph Company is undertaking something new in this thing,” said Mr. Wamplei today. “But its officials predict that in five or ten years such things will be common. Col. J. J. Carty, vice president and chief engineer of the company, makes the statement that within five years it wiU be possible for a subscriber to a newspaper phone to enter a booth, one of a large number set up in cities, anil ou lifting the receiver to his ear, hear the latest news developments of his city, county and the world repeated by word of mouth. Mr. Carty also predicts that within a few years the transmission of plays and operas by telephone to one’s own/fireside will be perfected. “Such developments are only a step in advance of the long distance address to be heard by the Electric Club tomorrow night. It will soon be possible, hy combining the use of cable, wireless and land aerial wires, to talk around the world. , Most of these feats have been accomplished by American engineers.” Hawaii Girl Writes Here for Some News Kiyoke Schlmlzer. a school girl of Papalkou.
