- CATHOLIC . OPENS | 2> WAJH 80 STUDENTS gest Registration i hool of Science and Com- merce and Finance. With more than 800 students regis- tered in all departments, the scholastic year of the Catholic University was formally opened yesterday with a sol- emn high mass in the new university gymnasium. Rt. Rev. George A. Dougherty, vice rector of the univer- sity, was celebrant, and Bishop Shahan, the rector, preached the ser- mon. The registration is heaviest In the achool of science and in.the depart- ment of commerce and finance. Bishop Shahan announced the following addi- tions to the teaching staff: New Teachers. Rev. Dr. George Johnson and Rev. Dr. Edward B. Jordan, instructors_in the department of pedagogy: Rev. Dr. John J. Robiecki and Rev. Charles A. Hart, lnstrucmr in the department of Philosophy; Dr. Hardee Chambliss, pro- fessor of chemistry; Y. T. Jackson, instructor in chemistry; James M. Fay, instructor in physics, and John J. Walsh, instructor in the law school. Referring to_the crowded conditions of all schools, Bishop Shahan said that “the new attitude of American youth toward education had probably come to stay, and that henceforth we should be confronted yearly with an increas- ing demand for educational facilities on the broadest lines. Our American education, being henceforth that of a people burdened with the moral-lead- ership of humanity, ought more than ever to be permeated with the spirit and temper of the gospel. “Christian Education.” “It should be a frankly Christian education. We are learning daily that the social and economic improvement of human conditions cannot be suc- cessfully conducted apart from the teachings of Christ. Similarly it is daily borne in upon the minds of thou- sands qf educators that without the convictions and the practice of genuine religion all education, even the most advanced, may easily become a menace 1o society instead of a blessed boon.” Dutch Bulbs When and How to Plant. Prepared by the planting com- mittee of the committee om civie art of the Washington Soelety of Fine Arts, Miss Mabél Boardman, chairman. It our loyal boosters for a more ‘beautiful Washington knew the ease and simplicity with which beautiful ‘borders and beds of flowering bulbs could be obtained, each spring we would see the transformation of bu- Ten spots into perfect gems of beauty and fragrance. ‘When one speaks of Dutch bulbs the eye, naturally, visualizes long rows of tulips and hyacinths in varied colors growing on a flat fleld, with a wind in the backsround. These two species are really the ones for which Holland has become famous. We cannot speak of bulbs, however, without also recalling the beautiful and bright narcissii. In her myriad of varieties. The latter used to come mostly from France, but now are grown on large bulb farms right here in America. Besides this, there are numerous other spring flowering bulbs,” suéth -as Darwin tulips, snow- drops, crocusses, amaryllis, freezia, Spanish iris, Japanese iris, German iris and the various lilliums, such as auratum, candidum and speciossum. ‘The cultural directions on all spring flowering Wulbs are very similar and very simple. To start with the bulb is the plant folded up and tucked away in.its winter home. You may be sure that at the proper time, if given even half a chance, it will come out and show itself. Selection. First, and of "very great importance, the selection of the stock. This es not require an expert. Bulbs that e well rounded out and firm and solid fu the center, when pressed; are unun.lly good bulbs. The stronger the bulb| the better will be the flower. Just keep this in mind and use your good judgment and you will not go far ‘wtong. Having made a selection of the stock, the next thing to consider is the proper time to plant. From ?ftbber 15 to November 15 is the best ime. s enables the bulb to form a stfong root growth before freezing weitther, which is the foundation of strong lusty flowers the following spring. However, I have seen good flowers produced from bulbs planted @as late as Christmas. Plaating Directions. - A good sandy loam is preferred for growing bulbs. It should be care- fully worked up and the bulbs plant- ed in rows or beds five or six inches apart for tulips and eight or ten inches apart for hyacinths. They should be planted about four inches deep. An old gardener's sayjng is, “Plant your seed in depth three times che diameter of the seed itself.” It is a good time right now to dig up the borders and little corners and get the soil in condition. A few dozen bulbs, talips, hyacinths or some of the narcissii will Iiberally yeward you next spring for the lttle rouble and expense necessary.

Opening. “The forward movement of democ- racy can only survive by the support of ‘its creator — education,” declared Justice Siddons in an address at the fifty-third 'opening of the National University Law School Saturday night. The nation’s future politics, the rights and remedies of its citizens and the stability of the government rest- ed, he said, in the hands of its citi- zens, and to that ‘purpose he urged that the channels of the knowledge of the law be opened impartially to every one who is desirous of gaining such knowledge. In praising the National Law School and kindred institutions, he declared their work and influence was of price- less value to the legal profession and the Interests of the country at large. Dean Carusi emphasized the impor- tance in the national life of a well trained body of lawyers whose train- ing had not kept them out of touch with the people and out of sympathy with their ideals and aspirations. “What this country nees said Dean Carusi, “is the leadership of able, honest and unprejudiced men. { Any system of education which is inspired by a desire to inculcate class prejudice-of any kind is certain to constitute a serious menace to demo- cratic_institutions, the aim of which should be to hold a just balance be- tween the rights of the individual and those of the community. Announcement was made of the contemplated opening of a college in liberal arts;, with courses that could combine with law. H Among the others to deliver ad- dresses were Conrad Syme, former corporation counsel for the District; Roger ©'Donnell and Thomas H. Pat terson. Further announcement by the dean was to the effect that the vocational board was putting a large number of world war veterans through the courses in the fnstitution. The enrollment in the law school at present shows an _approXimate in- crease of 20 per cent over last year. COL. INGALLS TRANSFERRED. Lieut. Col. Raymond E.

Curing of Bulbs. After the flowers have finished blooming, the bulbs should remain in the ground for several weeks. This will give them time to develop and mature. They sliould then be carefully dug, dried and stored away in a dsy_cel- jar until the next planting. I1f on is ‘careful they can, in this way, continue their stock almost indefinite 1y and increase the variety by adding a new one or S0 each year. Z. D.
