Conservative ,
and fouutains and summer-houses , the
last-uamod constructed to hold but two
persons at a time. They often build
little oruameutal bridges , not strong
enough to hold a Dutchman of low de
gree. These features of suburban life in
the Netherlands loolc strange when win
ter has stripped the surrounding triiri-
cut , little trees of all the leaves , frozen
the lakelets , turned the fountains into
images of ice , and covered the summer
houses with snow. In the warm weather ,
the Dutchman may be seen moving
about his garden accompanied by his
wife and children ; all of them are as
happy as are so many babies at play.
As they take tea in the afternoon , they
look inexpressible words of felicity at
one another. The summer-house is
usually at the disposal of the eldest
daughter of the house and her "best
young man , " unless , as is sometimes the
case , more than one adult cannot get in
side of it. In that event it is probably
given up to the younger children. To
watch a Dutch family , especially on
Sunday , is a good lesson in domestic de
votion a lesson which cannot fail to beef
of value to all of us.

ARBOR DAY PROCLAMATION.

EXECUTIVE CHAMBER , LINCOLN -
COLN , Neb. By virtue of the authority
vested in me by law , I , Ezra P. Savage ,
governor of Nebraska , do hereby proclaim
*
claim Tuesday , . April 22 , ' 1902 , Arbor ,
day.
day.The
The extensive use of timber in manu
facture and in public and private im
provements is and for some years has
been a heavy drain upon the forest re
sources and unless expansion along this
line keeps pace with devastation serious
consequences must ultimately be the
legacy.
Forestry is both useful aud'oruameu-
tal. While , strictly speaking , forestry
may not be indigenous , still splendid re
sults have attended every substantial ef
fort to develop our resources in this re
spect. Experience has demonstrated
that tree culture may be prosecuted as
successfully in Nebraska as in any of
the so-called timber states. Both soil
and climate are adapted to it. For tins
reason there should be relaxation . in
the planting of trees. Each succeeding
Arbor day should add at least a half
million trees aiid shrubs to our wood-
laud estate. It means wealth , pictur-
esqneness and comfort and eventually
will be a powerful magnet in the at
traction of capital and population to Ne
braska.
In the observance of Arbor day on
this occasion I do earnestly and respect
fully request that the day be specially
observed by the children of the public
schools and by citizens generally , and
that in addition to faithfully discharg
ing the obligations of Arbor day a tree
be planted commemorative of our late
and greatly beloved president , William
McKinley. A McKinley memorial tree
will furnish food in after years for both
solemn' and impressive reflection , and
will bo a merited tribute to one who dur
ing his life exhausted his best efforts
and taxed his best energies to promote
tue welfare and happiness of his coun
try and countrymen.
In testimony whereof , I' have here
unto set my hand and caused the great
seal of the state to be affixed.
Done at Lincoln , this loth day of
March , A. D. , 1902.
