Goldsboro—The Garden Club of this city was first to be organized in this state, has been presented a most attractive pamphlet by Lionell Weil, an authority on trees. It is typographically attractive and a splendid picture of the long leaf pine adorns the cover. Goldsboro, as far as can be learned, is leading the old North State cities in the lauding of this splendid tree, and a whole avenue, a memorial to soldiers, has been planted with long leaf pines. Mr. Weil, one of the city’s highest esteemed citizens, is devoted to trees and his knowledge and inspiration have been most effective in the movement now on for the beautifying of the city.
