which paints a complete woodland
scene:
II know a bank where wild thyme
blows" and in rosemary for re-
membrance" Ophelia's tragedy is
written. For centuries before the
time of Shakespeare rosemary had
symbolized fidelity since it was
thought to aid the memory. 1t was
conceded these qualities by writer's
like Pliny, Dioscorides and Galen.
Other herbs on the Shakespeare
list are-fennel camomile, cara
way. parsley, balm, mint, savory,
saffron, wormwood and sweet mar
joram, which is frequently identi-
fed with the hyssop of Luther's
translation of the Bible.
To show that flowers were not
distinguished from herbs in Eliza
bethan times we have Shakespeare
saying Gin The Winters TaleD:
Here's flowers for you:
Hot lavender, mints, savory mar
joram."
Constantly used in the kitchen
and in hand lotions and homely
remedies were lavender, lilies, roses,
violets, gillyflowers or carnations,
clover, daisies and cowslips.
Adding to the quaint charm of
the Bible and Shakespeare gardens
at the Cathedral is the stile which
leads into them-it is three steps
up and three down. Another artistic
touch is the old-fashioned dipping
pool. The entire garden is sur
rounded by a low stone wall with
various types of herbs growing in
the crevices.
The cottage from which the
Cathedral herb garden takes it's
name is one of those places that
never fails to fascinate. Semi-cir-
cular in form, it's walls are lined
with shelves containing all man
ner of dainties. The fragrance that
fills the air comes from the herbs
drying on the rafters.
Potted and ready for planting,
garden herbs may be purchased in
range that runs from ambrosia
to wormwood and includes such
better known names as balm, basil
tbush and sweet, chives, cumin,
dill, fennel, geranium, horehound,
marjoram, mint, parsley. penny
royal. sage. summer and winter
savory, southernwood, sweet cicely
or myrrh. tarragon and the rhymes,
which are such a numerous family
in themselves that there is whole
bed devoted to them along the
path leading into the cottage. An
other bed is given over to the salad
herbs.
All these herbs may be purchased
again in dried form. Contained in
glass jars, they are bottled accord
ing to various uses-for f1avoring,
for fragrance and for teas. Tea is
only another form in which herbs
are returning to favor. In France,
for instance, the custom of serving
tisanes (herb teas) for afternoon
NAA SoAASio vi lloS 1lSFCl
gone out of fashion.
Herb charts, which are as decora-
tive as they are helpful in the
kitchen, may be obtained in the
cottage. Listed under separate COL
umns are the herbs suitable for
soups, salads, omelettes, poultry and
meat dishes.
Visitors to the Cathedral flower
mart, which will be held on the
Pilgrim steps next Wednesday, may
we'll pause for bit in the herb
garden, which is situated close by,
and gain many helpful ideas for
establishing herb plots of their own.
From few pots summing them
selves on the kitchen window sill
to real, honest-to-goodness herb
garden does not seem such a far
cry when one sees how successfully
the experiment at the Cathedral
has developed.

Q879) are the ones listed. With the
exception of White Pet they can be
grown as polyanthas or low-bush
roses. White Pet has tiny double
white flowers and, as before men
toned, Is so dwarf that it may be
used as an edging plant.
Two varieties of Bourbon roses
were given: Louise Oder, bright
rose. and Souvenir de la Malmaison
G843) with pale fesh-c -colored flow
ers. Both are dwarf and bushy,
much like the Chinas.
OF the tea roses, only two were
suggested: Duchesse de Brabant
Q85O and Safrano (about 1860.
The first is double with pale pink
flowers, while the latter is a pale
yellow. The tea roses are usually
planted among the hybrid-teas.
A great many of the old-fashioned
roses are June boomers, l. e., bloom
only in the spring. However, they
are fully as useful as shrubs which
in most cases bloom but once
year.
The cabbage roses listed are Rosa
centifolia (Cabbage) very pink,
tall and vigorous: Rose des peintres
-purple-pink with white stripes,
and R. burgundiaca-a 2-foot shrub
with pink flowers. The cabbage
roses, originally grown for the pro-
duction of rose-water and altar of
roses, are probably the most fra
grant of all roses.
The old Pink Moss (R. Com
munis) was introduced into Eng
land in 1896 and is today considered
to be one of the finest of the moss
roses Another one recommended
is Jeanne de Montfort (185D, tall
grower with semi-double flowers of
clear pink edged with silver.
Another old-fashioned rose listed
Is the Sweetbrier (R. rubiginosa), a

Many OF the OdFashoned Roses Are ENJOYING Revival
Leaves From
The Garden
Time Now to Divide
Chrysanthemums
For Fall Bloom

Recent freezes have caused a
good many gardeners considerable
worry and, in few cases, anguish.
They emphasized the Importance Of
patience as gardeners virtue.
The daffodils, hyacinths and a few
of the other spring Towering bulbs
that were in bloom had some Of
their flowers injured. Otherwise
they escaped injury, since unopened
buds are seldom spoiled Tulip foli-
age was hurt in few places. The
early Towering magnolias that were
in flower had their attractive blooms
ruined.
We all like to have blooms in our
yards and gardens very early in
the spring, but this springs ex-
perience emphasizes the value Of
using materials that are not subject
to freeze injury. The earliest fow-
ering magnolias and cherries often
have their blooms spoiled. 1t is
much wiser to use those kinds that
flower week or so later. We will
enjoy them just as much and more
regularly.
So far no injury to the hardy
perennials has been reported, and
very likely there was none. Roses
and other shrubs were hardly far
enough along to be hurt. Young
plants in unprotected cold frames
suffered.
1t is time to lift and divide the
hardy chrysanthemums, physostegia
and asters. These fall bloomers are
gross feeders and do much better
when they are lifted each spring.
the soil reworked, humus and food
incorporated and reset. This does
not apply to the Articum hybrid
chrysanthemums, which improve
with age.
Ordinarily the qplanting of trees
and shrubs is completed by this
time, but the cold, backward spring
has undoubtedly delayed much of
this work. Inasmuch as we can
expect some very hot weather, it
may prove advantageous to prepare
for it by mulching all newly planted
shrubs and seeing to it that they
have ample moisture.
In cleaning out the perennial beds
it is we'll to use care so as not to
injure the new shoots of lilies and
other fragile plants that have not
yet poked their heads through the
ground. Many seedlings are still
so small as to be easily overlooked
and destroyed.
Chickweed is showing up In many
gardens and should be pulled or
killed with sulphate of ammonia be-
fore it has time to set seed. It is
a persistent little annual that will
smother desirable plants unless kept
under control.
At recent meeting of the Ameri-
can Horticultural Society Mr.. R. K.
Webel. landscape architect of New
York City, made quite a plea for
American design and American
plants in American gardens. He
made very effective presentation
of this point. to which we might
all give very careful considera.

tive Secretary, illustrated the in
tricate procedure involved in Gre
ating vocational educational and
job placement opportunities for
Negro youth in Minneapolis. He
mentioned the extra financial bur-
den and other difficulties faced by
Negroes in their search for decent
housing. Mr.. Washington stated
that in his opinion it would be
good thing for both races If Ne
groes were more widely employed
in the industries of Minneapolis,
also that one or two Negro teach
ers in the public schools would
have a vital effect upon the atti-
tude of the youth of the commu-
nifty. In closing he urged that
the Urban League must be con-
cerned with these issues, but that
the work of the Urban League
could not be effective unless the
people of the community believe
in the organizations program and
are willing to support it. The fol-
lowing persons were elected to the
Board for a three year term: Lloyd
P. Johnson, Cecil E. Newman, j.
