border of the Drive, southerly, and a little southeast, 

 of Bolivar Statue, on the border, you will find Ela- 

 cgnus angustifolia, the oleaster, with entire, lanceolate 

 leaves which have a very distinctive silvery cast 

 through their pale gray green. You have met a good 

 specimen of this on Section No. 2. Down the slope 

 of the Hill here, a little east of the place where the 

 Drive makes its exit from around Bolivar Statue to 

 the south, you will find fire-thorn, a specimen of which 

 you met down near the Sheepfold, on Section No. 4. 

 On the border of the bed, to the south of Bolivar 

 Statue, are clustered close together, Juniperus sabina; 

 Viburnum epulis (or oxyccocus), var. nanum; Vi- 

 burnum epulis (or oxyccocus) , and Potentilla fruti- 

 cosa. The savin juniper here {sabina), is a trailing 

 one, with dark green, slightly spreading, awl-shaped, 

 sharp-pointed leaves. It is a native of the Alps, the 

 Pyrenees, and Canada. Southwest of this juniper 

 is the dwarf cranberry bush {Viburnum opulis, var. 

 nanum) with small leaves and of rather compact form ; 

 almost due east of this is shrubby cinquefoil {Poten- 

 tilla fruticosa), and directly north of this, close by 

 the border of the open space of Drive which encircles 

 the Bolivar Statue, is the high bush cranberry. This 

 has more name than height. You can tell it by its 

 leaves, which are distinctly three-lobed and three- 

 nerved (veined). 



As the Drive makes its exit at the south of the 

 little concourse about the Bolivar Statue, it winds 

 slowly down the Hill to meet the main West Drive. 

 Near its junction with the Drive, there is a handsome
