Excerpt from Thirty-Sixth Annual Program for the Observance of Arbor Day in the Public Schools of Rhode Island: May 13, 1927
I hope that you keep the annual festival of the trees in the free and joyous spirit of springtime and not as a dull task set by law. In the liberty of school citizenship, Arbor Day, like all school days, is to be kept in the spirit as well as the letter of its appoint ment. As the spirit giveth life, only the awakening spirit of truth and beauty in trees and their company of things growing could have kept alive the earnest observance of this day for thirty-six years in our schools.
