This exhibition follows a three- month study of tree values which has been followed by a vote for a n tional tree, which the American Forestry Association is compiling throughout the country. The vote, a ballot for which appears in The Even- ing Star, will be announced as soon as it can be counted. Not only are the pupils voting, but grown-ups, too, are marking ballots. At the Wilson Normal exhibition will be found almost everything that can be made of wood. There, too, are all kinds of insect exhibits and minia- ture reproductions of history having to do with trees. The Force School pupjls have reproduced the sigiing of the treaty with the Indians by Wii- liam Penn. They have also repro- duced Gen. Washington with his troops beneath a famous elm. ‘The Monroe School has sent its en- tire “bird corner” to the exhibition. The Normal School children have done a garden in clay, while the Cor- caran School dontributes furniture done in walnut. The Dennison and Abbot schools have sent work in hickory. A complete bedroom set is shown by the Smallwood vocational pupils. The girls made the wall paper and the bedding, while the boys made th- set of furniture to scale. The Ross School made a companion set for the dining room. The Emery School shows a model for a new American dollar.. Gales School specializes in pine, while the Weightman pupils devote their ex- hibit to the value of the apple tree.
