CLEMENCEAU GIVEN WELCOME BY BOSTON Boston, Nov. 24.—Georges Clemen- coau, the Tiger of France, yesterday stood in Massachusetts historic Hall of Flags and cried out to America that the could not desert (her war as sociates. 'You are prisoners of your own nobleness,” he declared. “You must rerqain what you are.” The aged war premier of France arrived yesterday to find the warmest ■ceptlon he has been accorded since he landed at New York last Satur. :iay. He delivered two half-hour ad dresses. He spoke first in City Hall nfter he had 1)een welcomed by Mayor Curley and had been presented huge silk flag of France and a gold medal inscribed “The Tiger.” He spoke again in the Hall of Flags at the state house, where Gov. 'Cox introduced him. Both the addresses were impassion ed pleas for America to align herself again with France. Boston turned out everything it possessed in the way of military dis play to emphasize her welcome to the | construction of main highi famous war figure. Majoy General Clarence R. Ed wards, commandant of the first army orps area, was among the party of notables, led by Lieut. Gov. Fuller, which met him in the station, double lane of national guardsmen kept the path open 'for hi street. Outside had been massed fighting en of every sort that the city could muster. There were cavalrymen, ar tillerymen, marines, blue jackets and policemen. Up Boston’s winding streets the ca valcade moved, through streets lined with cheering crowds. Ticker tape and confetti rained down through French and American flags In the financial district. After ceremonies at city hall, Clemenceau icorted to the atate house. Entering he paused several moments before a statue of Washington. Beneath the high dome of the Hall of Flags, the Tiger’s first greeting went to a blinded son of his native France. The ‘‘blue devil” whi his sight in the great drive of 1915— was Private Guy Endin, itudent at Harvard. The Tiger spied Tim as he was led forward, his breast resplendent with the Croix de Guerre the Medaille Militalre and the deco ration of the Legion of Honor, and stepped quickly to embrace him. He spoke emotionally to him in French for sevenfl minutes ^before Gov. Cov could start his speech of introduction. From the state house, again rid ing through cheering crowds and paraded troops, the Tiger drove through the Back Bay section to the public library where were nearly a thousand school children singing the Marseillaise i n French. The Tiger alighted for a moment so that he and the children could see each other better. Then he was driven to the home of F. L. Higginson, Jr., nearby, where he will stay while in Boston. An hour later he was In bed, resting up for his second formal address, which he is to deliver at 4 o’clock this afternoon in Tremont Temple. Col. Stephen Bonsai, who is con ducting the tour, refused to let him be interviewed o’n the criticisms launched at him from the floor of CANADA SPENDING MILLIONS ON ROADS Ottawa. Ont..

Horticulturist, Georgs Experiment Station) December 1st Is the day set for the annual planting of trees In the state of Georgia; for this reason it Is called Arbor day. Arbor day was first observed In 1865; and was start ed as an annual custoih In tbe state of Nebraska in 1874. By 1890 thirty- states had adopted it. Now prac tically every state and territory In the United States celebrate it; as legal holiday, and others school holiday. The exact date vari es; in the south It Is in early winter; In the middle states late winter; and In the north it is early spring. The observance of this day is in :ord with the enactment of the legls- ature. and Is celebrated by public- ninded, nature-loving people; espec ially the women’s organizations and I teachers and children, often with ceremonies. From the earliest times it has been an'a Instinct to seek protection from ees; and civilization has not caus ed him to abandon the idea. They are protection in the time of cold, in the timeof heat, in the tfmeof drouth, and also in the time of flood. But bow many of our people really know how to select and plant a tree with the assurance that It will fur nish shade and beauty for the next from the ground the smaller the the more protection will be necessary after planting, and the longer the time before it will make much shade. Dig the tree with as large root-sys tem as practicable, letting as many of the small roots remain as possible. mechanically injure the roots by breaking, splitting or knocking the bark off, and of course never let them become dry. The hole should be big enough to let the tree set two Inches deeper than It was before It was dug, without bending or twisting the and large enough to let the lateral roots keep their natural position with out crowding. Place the tree In the hole as If It were a living thing, and throw It in as you would While It is being held upright In the center of the bole, Bprlnkle fine well pulverized soil over the root! making it firm around tbe roots witl general pressure of the foot. Do nol How rocks, clods, sticks or any thing that would cause large air spaces to s in contact with the roots; but t neglect to pack the fine soil tly around them. When the hole Is almost full pack the soil firmly, then quit. leaving a mound of fine un packed soil, four Inches deep over the whole root-system. Rich soil should be used to fill the hole, but avoid let- ee planter: Assuming that it is to be used for the school, church or home yard, us trees are more desirable than ■greens. Among which one may jse the water oak. sycamore, red white oak, ombardy poplar, red , maple and beech, hickory or tb* pecan. Choose a straight, upright, vig- tree, that measures from one to three inches in diameter six inches [ 0W _ ting strong manure come In contact * ' with the roots of the tree. Alter It has been set, cut the top back In propor tion to the amount that tbe roots were cut, while it was being dug. For a tree to do well you should choose one from a soil similar to tha which you expect the tree t For example: do not go loth bottom to get a tree to plant o a red hillside. The first aim Is to get the tree t LIVE, the next is to make it GROW.
