Dead and dying branches spread tree diseases and insects. Accidents are caused by decayed branches falling. The Fundamental Principles may be briefly summarized (1) the removal of all dead, decayed, diseased and injured wood and bark; (2) the sterilizing of all cut surfaces; (3) the water-proofing of cut surfaces; (4) aid- ing quick recovery, as by filling and cover- ing deep cavities; (5) inspection, once or several times a year to forestall the action of new defects that may arise.

The suite from the "Fire Bird," by Strav- insky will be followed by the Bird Song from "Pagliacci" and a scene from fi- nale from "The Mount of Olives," by Beethoven. It will be seen from this that an un- usual treat is in store at the Festival this season as the programs are attrac- tive and the soloists are all artists of the first rank. Frederick E. Clerk in Lecture on "Americanism" Frederick E. Clerk, principal of the New Trier High school, spoke on "Americanism" before the students of the National Kindergarten and Ele- mentary college last Thursday after- noon. In one of the finest lectures of the semester Mr. Clerk showed the necessity for alert interest on the part of Americans and especially of the teachers of young Americans, in the affairs of other countries. He sug- gested that a melting pot, as America has so often been termed, may be used for one of two things--it may be used simply for mixing, in which case the worst elements become a little better and the best a good deal worse; or it may be used to refine and carry off the baser metal or impurities, to the better ment of the entire mass, and it is up to the people of America to de- cide upon the use to which the country shall be put.
