trees more than a week ago when they
were just ready to burst, into bloom
'the hint of the color to come was al

each time I have "ohed" and "ahed"

.Tidal Basin, one evening with the wa

the Basin stands the: striking white
marble Jefferson Memorial and silhou
etted against the sky in the same area
is the stately Washington Monument
always an effective backdrop for the '
views of the trees. From pink to white
the trees vary and they circle the Basin
a necklace or a halo depending on
whether viewed from above or from the
walk that circles the water just under
neath the trees. Reflections in the water
bring out the camera addicts in full
force. Since there are some plantings
of eastern holly and other trees that
;show green foliage now, one gets a
pleasing contrast of the popcorn white
or the petal pink of the cherry blossoms
against the green. " ..

. And if that weren't enough to delight
the eye, at night three huge Signal

Basin, and the trees look like snow

without the center strip, on is in the
midst of blossoms they seem to' be
softly caressing as you pass beneath
them. In this section, ; Kenwood by
name, lovely homes with spacious lawns
and flowering shrubs that augment the
cherry trees, the streets wind up and
down and curve about so that one al
most becomes lost in the maze of blos
soms. It is an extensive area in which
this community planting of countless
hundreds of trees has been done and we
noted some newly laid out streets where
young trees were blooming for the first
time. .
- .,
In some of the yards there were siz
able plantings of forsythia not single
bushes but many massed together out
lining the slope of the terrace. ' Tulip
magnolias are still bright with color
here although in the parses in the down
town area they have faded now. The
brick and stucco houses are beautifully
proportioned and interesting in design,
but this evening the magnificence of
the trees eclipsed the attractive homes.
The Park Police in the Tidal Basin
area estimated that more than 110,000
viewed the display on Saturday and
more than 180,000 on Sunday. . For a
while on Sunday it took cars an hour to
circle the Basin, which we had circled
slowly on Friday evening and late Sat
urday night In not more than 15 min
utes. Of the Saturday crowds at least
25,000 were pedestrians who found lei
surely enjoyment in walking at the wa
ter's edge under the canopy of trees and
who were busy with cameras.
The trees around the ' Basin ' were
brought from Japan in 1912. An earlier
shipment of 2,000 trees in 1909 had be
come infested with insect pests and had
to be destroyed. Mrs. William Howard
Taft, wife of the President, had been in
strumental in the plan to make the area
a local poini ior me Japanese cnerries,
as she. was familiar with the Tokyo
plantings where some 78 different kinds
of cherry trees grow. The vision of the
circle of trees Is credited to Miss Ellia
R. Scldmore, author of books on Japan,
who enlisted Mrs, Taft's aid and the in
terest of officials in Tokyo who shipped
the trees here. Two trees of the Somel
Yoshimo variety, the most delicate of
the single white flowers, bea bronze
markers as they were planted by Mrs.
Taft and the wife of the Japanese Am
bassador in the first ceremony In 1912.
.. ....
While still on the suoject of flowers,
one of the Easter features here will be
the display in the Botanical Gardens,
where 12,000 Easter lilies, 2,500 tulips
and many rare plants will be on display.
May I close with the report that Wash
ington has more trees in it than any
city in the world, Paris now yielding to
second place. The only fitting close to
this is tra-la for the flowers that bloom
