It is recognised that wonderfu possibilities in street decoration lie before us, and fur- ther that municipalities are to escape the charge of backwardness in civic pride it is necessary that attention be given to these points. .Without Open sunshine it is impossible to have beautiful lawns, to say nothing of beds of flowers and clumps of beautiful shrubs. glt is true that some courage is ineedeil to remove well established trees. but it requires only a little imagination to realize the trans- formation tliat may result from exchanging our surplus trees for 'the park-like beauty that may be given to any of our streets by well directed landscape treatment.
