THE TREE PLANTER.

Tribute of fruits be his, and glossy wreaths
From roadside trees, and his the people's love,
When east and west the wind of summer breathes
Through orchard, shaded path, and sighing grove.
Hon. J. Sterling Morton, the originator of Arbor Day. New York, April, 1888.
Edmund C. Stedman.
