MUSCLE SHOALS VOTE Is Asked to Preserve Its Beauty% MAY BE FRUSTRATED The flowering dogwood, which has been held back by chill weather of the late Spring, is about to turn from its greenish white to a creamy white which each year makes of-the woods and roadsides near Washington places of beauty. For the third time, the Wildflower Preservation Society, with which will co-operate the National Capital com- mittee of the Garden Club of America, will continue its campaign to prevent destruction of this beautiful tree by the public. Much progress in this di- rection has been made during the past two vears, when two intensive cam- paigns were waged for preservation of the tree, and when the public re- considered | i sponded with what was splendid co-operation. Somewhat similar lines of campaign will be followed out this vear, and persons will be asked to preserve the dogwood In order that not only they themselves, but others, may enjoy it throughout this seagon and in the fu- ture. ‘When the first campaign was opened this tree had been so stripped in the vicinity of Washington by marauders, that it was in kreat danger of disap-) pearing in a few yvears. There has been a great change of attitude, how- ever, on the part of the public, accord- ing to those in charge of the cam- paign, and this year it is anticipated | there probably will be better condi- | tions than ever for protecting the flowering tree.
