Efforts TO preserve the Towering dog
wood, just now coming into bloom, will

Wildhower Preservation Society, 1t was
announced last night by P. l.. Kicker,
president of the society. Cooperating
with this organization in the campaign

The dogwood blooms in the city, Mr.
Kicker said, seem to be further ad-
vanced than those farther out in the
suburbs and the country, for some rea-
son. but all the flowers in this whole
vicinity seem still to have faint green
ish tinge, he says.
A few warm days, however, will bring
to the white petals Of this Towering
tree more growth and more beauty.
The greenish tinge will bleach out into
creamy white and the dogwood will
be in its full glory.
Best Display In Rock Creek Park.
Some of the finest display Of dogwood
in the Capital is in Rock Creek Park
on Ridge road and Ross drive in the
high ridges of the park. There are
several residence areas, however, which
boast beautiful displays of dogwood,

The redbud seems to be blooming slight

the Wildfower Preservation Society and
the Garden Club of America to enjoy

order that they may increase instead
Of decrease In this section of the coun-
try. Vandals years ago threatened
almost to wipe out this tree by break
ing off whole branches and sometimes
by stripping entire trees Of their blooms
which soon fade and die.
