Or—I am a large tree, with great branches. My fruit is called an acorn. What am I? (An oak tree.)

Wednesday

Talk about Arbor Day—why it is celebrated, and why it is necessary that our trees be preserved.

Thursday

A song to the oak! the brave old oak!

Who hath ruled in the greenwood long;

Here’s health and renown to his broad green crown

And his fifty arms so strong.
