and the Bishop was escorted to the
hall by Mayor F. N. McCorklc, Austin
j Sheheen, Oaylord Tucker, John Mulleu
and Father Burke. The escort
of honor later was stationed at the
entrance to the hall, acting as a committee
to greet the guests.

to Father Burke, members of the'
parish and Bishop Walsh that all of.
the clergy of the city were present to
extend the hand of fellowship and to
offer sincerely expressed good wishes
to the Bishop and to Father Burke. |
For over an hour a long line of

Monthly Hints For January Compiled
by Mrs. Carl A. West
Plant deciduous trees and shrubs,
evergreens, fruit trees, nut trees and
vines this month.
Shrubs that make their bloom on
new or current season wood can be
prujned until February.
holly, oleander, climbing
roses and various vines can be
propagated by layering through the
winter. Make a deep cut into the
branch and cover the wounded portion
with soil. Hold branch down by
wire or place a brick on top of soil. ?
It la best to remove tip of branch.
Use dormant spray while the leaves
are ofT deciduous trees and shrubs.
On all ornamentals, use liquid lime,
sulphur, one pint to five gallons of
water or 1 to 40.
On fruit and nut trees the proportion
is 1 to 10. This will burn the
finer shrubs and trees. This spray
destroys scale Insects and fungus diseases.
Clean up garden rubbish. Diseased
fallen leaves, weeds and dead flower
stalks should be burned.
Pick off the hanging cones of the
bag-worms on canifers, especially arborvltae.
Prune and burn twigs of trees
which bear the eggmasses of the tent
caterpillar. They look like heavy
cobwebs and if left the young worms
will destroy all the foliage o? the
tree.
