Father Schultz arrived In Canada
in 1885 and blazed the airway around
Hudsons Bay himself with Stinson
he bought in Detroit. Twice he has
come near cracking up-once when
ice formed on his wings near the

went down and he could not guage
his altitude. But the worst that hap
pened was a broken ski.
The priest is Al now, and he hopes
to carry his work into South America
next. The M. I. v. A. is the driving
passion of his life, tribute to his
love for Otto Fuhrmann.
Fuhrmann was Father Schulte's
closest friend in the War. and after
the armistice he entered the priest

Southwest Africa. There he fell Ill.
only 18 miles from a medical sta
ton, but by the time natives had
carried him to the dispensary from
his mission four days had passed and
it was too late.
If only there had been an air
plane down there" Father Schultz
thought.
Father Fuhrmann died in 1925. BY
1927 the Missionary international
Vehicular Association was formed.
In 1882 Pope Plus XII told Father
Schultz: You do not have to arouse
my enthusiasm. I am already en-

 Transformed Into ArbOratum as Feature

tomeria Japonica have been planted and more of these trees which take their name from their presence around the temples in Japan are being planted at appropriate places on the campus.

 A feature of the new plan is its emphasis upon the use of native plants. Many of these have been collected by Father ONeill in the vicinity of the University or in re- mote parts of the campus which extends to the borders of old Fort Totten. MT. A. V. Smith, Ph. D.. candidate in Botany. has brought in a number of plants and shrubs from the Eastern Shore of Maryland which have been planted on the University grounds.

 A sunken garden is being devel- oped in a glade or ravine directly back of McMahon hall and the un- finished front of the National Shrine has been protected by massing of trees and Towering shrubs.

is a blackboard on an easel, but no clock is visible.
 Princess Elizabeth, however, is now able to judge the hour almost to the minute. She has spent so many mornings in this schoolroom that the absence of a time-piece is no handicap to her. The girl who is the British royal heir starts her lessons at g o'clock sharp each morning, and continues until half past twelve. By o'clock each day, with the exception of Saturday and Sunday, she has to be ready for her governess, Miss Crawford, in whose charge she has been from her earliest years. Only the most urgent matters are allowed to upset this arrangement.
 Never before in British history has so much been demanded of Royalty, and Queen Elizabeth long ago realized that her elder daugh- ter, at least, would have to be edu- cated more widely than any Prin- cess had previously been.
 A mere list of the subjects in which the Princess is taught is for midable. First, of course, there are the Three R'S"-reading, writing, and arithmetic. Foreign languages (particularly French), olpitical his tory, economic history, the story of the Empire, department, social train ing-these receive close attention. Once week, too, her Royal High ness has to bring out her "very own" history book and add some thing to its pages herself. It is a unique book, this, for it is really a scrapbook, into which she pastes newspaper references to the royal children of other lands and in which she has traced their relationship to her.
 Likes Geography
 To peep into the Buckingham Palace schoolroom at another time would be to reveal her sitting, deep ly interested, while geography is taught to her with the help of the large scale map on the fall. To Princess Elizabeth the subject is an essentially personal one. It was her dearly beloved grandfather, King George V, who instilled in her keen love of geography; her father, too, has fired her imagination in the same direction, for both have told her of their own experiences in foreign lands.
 At the suggestion of Queen Mary, Princess Elizabeth has in recent been taken to various places of historic interest. She hs explored Hampton Court Palace, toured the Tower of London, and been to other spots where British history has been made. During journeys by road and rail, to Sandringham, Balmoral, and elsewhere, various historic places en route have been pointed out to her.
 During her morning lessons, half-hour break is allowed at about about quarter to eleven. She usually spends this interval in the Buckingham Palace gardens, if the weather allows. I fit does not, she sometimes takes the opportunity to read 8 chapter or two from one or another of the books in her own little library.
 Normally, the afternon is set aside for her social education. For danc- ing music lessons, tutors visit the place twice a week. On one day each week, Princess Elizabeth goes
