Art and Flowers
Ernu Bush
Makes Most
OF Hobbies
BY Harriet French

Gathering materials for ter
rariums is fun in Montgomery
County" declared Erna Bush as
she brought out one Of the many
little gardens inclosed In glass
that she had created. .This
part of Maryland is wonderful
for flora because it is the meet
ing place Of northern and south
ern flowers" Mrs. Bush looks
at you with calm blue eyes as
she talks to you, in botanical
terms. Of the flowers and plants
growing in profusion on the
seven acres surrounding her
home back Of Pooks Hill.
Col. and Mrs. George p. Bush,
who have three grown sons and
a married daughter. have lived
in their home near Alta Vista
for q years. Here, among
stately trees. flowers and shrubs.
Mrs. Bush pursues her two deep
interests-art and gardening.
When she was z years old.
Mrs. Bush sketched at her
fathers easel. At that time she
used pastels: now she prefers
water <colors.
Her favorite subject is the
orchid and she has painted hun
dreds of them, each one exquisite
and complete to the most inflni-
tesimal detail because she 'for-
tunately has a Photographic
eye"
Points in Greenhouses
Mrs. Bush likes to paint in
greenhouses. Now that there are
so many orchid growers, it is not
difficult for her to find orchids
at the proper stage of develop
ment for her to paint. She
watches the buds in order to get
her timing right. For the past
10 years she has been painting
in the Botanic Gardens and has
been given q certain area there
for her own use. -,
Mrs. Bush modestly admits
that she "can throw in a few
IDEAS" With her knowledge of
composition and art, she natu-
rally knows whether a certain
shrub or tree would be right for
a certain spot. Mature responds
to just a little effort" continued
Mrs. Bush. "The secret of a good
garden is compost. If you plant
the proper things, waste products
make humus. Nature in her
wonderful way processes the gar
den."
In addition to flowers, Mrs.
Bush is interested in growing fine
tomatoes and Strawberries. This
year, the strawberries will be
especially good because Mrs.
Bush put straw around the
plants in order to keep dirt from
the berries.

Behind the house and on each
side Of it are rock gardens bor-
dering winding walkways; differ.
ent kinds Of Towering shrubs.
box, wild rhodo dendron, raggedy
tulips. including orange Favorite
and blue Fantasy: yellow, white
and pink trilliun1. and many,
many more--all kept under con-
troll by an artists hand. In front
Of the house are Col. Bush's beds
of beautiful iris.
Giant white, scarlet, black, pin
and Jack oaks shade the place as
well as tulip trees, Q Himalayan
yew tree and q Korean holly that
is about so years old. The
grounds are sanctuary for wild
birds in transit. Orioles, tanagers
and herons stop there; even wild
turkeys have found it to be a
haven Of rest. And over all, is
quiet peace. Driving out the long
lane, after talking to Mrs. Bush,
one wonders If it is her calm per-
Sonality that pervades the place
or vice versa.

Youth To Distribute Holy Fire
In Europe During Marian Year

LOURDES, France-NC) - A
"holy fire" to be blessed at this
celebrated Marian shrine on May
/ will be taken all over Europe by
torchlight professions during the
Marian Year.
The professions will be under
taken by the Catholic youth of Eu-
rope, in accord with a resolution

Bishop Pierre NJ. Theas of Tarbes.
1t will then be given to repre-
sentatiyes of Catholic youth groups
for distribution to Catholic parish
es throughout Europe.
The young men will carry the
fire by torches, lamps and cam
dies. With the light synbolizing
their faith, the fire their convie-
tior and the blaze their mission
as Christians, II is expected that
the holy fire" will have q deep
influence on the lives OF thou
sands.
The French Occurs Vaillants"
will take the fire to Lyons and
then IT will be taken over the
Pyreenes to Spain and Portugal.
AT Geneva, young Catholic Swiss
will take the fire from French
youth and carry it to the borders
of italy and Austria. The Young
Workers of Germany will carry it
through West and East Germany.
