TO MARK CENTENNIAL
Planting Of Trees By Schools DOMINION-WIDE EFFORT As the result of a conference early in the year of education board agricultural instructors and officers of the Education Department, an endeavour is to be made to celebrate the New Zealand centennial in 1940 by the planting in school grounds throughout the Dominion of suitable native trees. The Wellington Education Board, in common with others, is already working on the scheme and large numbers of schools have begun raising trees to bo planted out in 1940. The conference decided that the minimum number of trees for each board should be 2050, and it is almost certain that the Wellington quota will exceed that figure.
