Some trees were so huge that a large man could not put his arms around them. Those trees helped the settlers a lot. They were glad and thankful to have these trees. They used them to build houses and make fire. From the wood of the trees, they made furniture, tools and so on. Most people thought the forests would last forever. However, by 1800, America had its first wood shortage (短缺). How did it happen? People had not known that trees were being cut down faster than new ones could grow. Some American people made trips to foreign countries. There they saw destroyed forests and learned the importance of protecting forests. They came back to the United States and warned that if Americans didnt use trees more carefully and wisely, someday the forests would all be gone. However, people were not ready to listen. Years went by, and Americas forests kept disappearing. It made some people really worried. But they did nothing. Finally, J. Sterling Morton, the man who is remembered as the father of Arbor Day (过节), got people to listen. He named a Tree-Planting Day, or Arbor Day. He worked hard to make Arbor Day a national holiday. On that day, people usually plant a lot of trees. Today, millions of trees have been planted in the United States because of Arbor Day. Arbor Day is such a good idea that many other countries now also have Arbor Day. Many, many trees are being planted all over the world because of J. Sterling Mortons work.37 .
