In terms of April celebrations and commemorations, April Fools' Day is eclipsed (in the US and other countries as applicable) by Arbor Day. During Puritan times, Arbor Day was a rather somber affair bearing little resemblance, beyond the dendroidal namesake, to today's observance. The emphasis back then was firmly on the sylvan sacrifice that made much of education and discretionary reading possible. Subsequently, a shift toward celebration of pulpy life took place as symbolized chiefly by the practice of replanting.
