January 11, 1923. My dear Mr. Burbank: At the request of the editor of the Boston Trans- cript I wrote a story the other day about Lafayette Park which he printed 1/6/23 in last Saturday's issue. On opening the paper I was delighted to find another article about you, which delighted Mrs. Gleason and me very much. To make sure that the paper comes to your attention, I am sending herewith a copy of that portion of the paper containing the two articles. That is a most admirable scheme for a memorial of your work which is planned by your fellow-citizens of Santa Rosa, and I shall watch its development and final accomplishment with the greatest interest. How I wish I could be on hand at the dedication of the new park in March! It will surely be a notable occasion. Judging from the photographs in the Transcript (which are very poorly reproduced in both articles) I think that you and Mrs. Burbank must be in excellent health. I like especially that view in which you appear with Mr. Paderewski, and I am tempted to inquire where I may get a copy of the photograph from which I can make a lantern slide for use in my Burbank lecture. I sincerely hope that your good health will continue, and that your Golden Jubilee will bring with it the assurance of many years yet to come of honor and happiness. Mrs. Gleason and I did not get to California the past summer. I was called to undertake some special work for the government down on Mt. Desert Island, and we stayed there for three months. not returning home until November. We had a wonderfully fine time. Whether or not we shall go West again next year I cannot now tell. Please accept our heartiest congratulations and best wishes both for yourself and "Betty."

Very truly yours, Enclosure 1. Getrude more Grindle Cambridge, Mass., 21 April 1921 Dear Mr. Dorr: Henry L. Eno told me some weeks ago about the proposed transfer of the Marine Biological Station from Harpswell to Salis- bury Cove. It seemed to me a very desir- able achievement. Does it not suggest the completion of the organization of the Wild Gardens of Acadia and the organization of a committee to raise an endowment for it? The sooner it is announced the better. I hope your health has been pretty good this winter, and that you are taking some care of yourself. Sincerely yours Charles h Elios Mr. George B.

Harvard Library bulletin. Page 1 of 2 Harvard Hibrary bulletin 12, #3 3(1958):326-3473 Elkins Honorary Degrees at Harvard THE conferring of honorary degrees, although certainly one T of the less vital activities of universities, is nevertheless one that attracts a great deal of public notice. There is prob- ably no other feature of a Harvard Commencement that arouses so general an interest both within and without the University. It was not always so. A century ago it was rather the student exer- cises that attracted the most attention and comment. The distinguished character of many of the recipients of honorary degrees in recent years, the secrecy that, as a rule, surrounds their identity before the ceremony, the fact that they are guests of the University for the occa- sion, and that from their number will be chosen the principal speakers at the afternoon exercises, all contribute to the anticipation with which the ceremony of conferring the honorary degrees is awaited. The existence of this interest is the chief justification for an article review- ing the history of such degrees at Harvard. Honorary degrees are an ancient institution, but one to which the historians of universities, justifiably concerned with more essential mat- ters, have devoted little attention. If the time and place of the confer- ring of the first such degree are known, this information has escaped the notice of the present writer, whose search has admittedly been far from exhaustive. Originally degrees were simply licenses to teach a certain subject or group of subjects, and it must be presumed that some time elapsed before they were sought by, or deemed appropriate honors for, persons who had no intention of teaching. Nevertheless there were those who wished to have the license without the trouble of resid- ing at a university, and the legitimacy of this desire, in certain cases, was recognized in the highest quarters. In mediacval Europe the Pope and the Emperor could, at their discretion, direct that persons not con- nected with a university be admitted to the examinations for the vari- ous degrees. In England at the Reformation the Pope's prerogative passed to the Archbishop of Canterbury. The King also had the right Superscript(1)-Cf. Hastings Rashdall, The Universities of Europe in the Middle Ages (Oxford, 1895), II, 29-30, 750-751. 326 http://pds.lib.harvard.edu/pds/view/2573358?op=t&n=5505&s=6&rotation.. 11/12/2010 Sequence 5526 (Page 347): Harvard University. Harvard Library bulletin. Page 1 of 2 Honorary Degrees at Harvard 347 of eligibility for such awards. So far as the writer can judge, Harvard's record in this respect has been relatively free from the scandalous prac- tices that developed, along with the expansion of American higher education, from the mid-nineteenth century on: the practices, namely, of conferring honorary degrees on persons whose only qualifications were wealth or political influence, or of bringing pressure to bear, through their friends, on the trustees of colleges and universities. There has been criticism of Harvard's rather numerous awards to busi- ness men and financiers, including some who had been generous bene- factors of the University, but it may be confidently asserted that as a rule the persons concerned have been men of real achievement or serv- ice to the community. That the University was cognizant of the pres- sures making for cheap honorary degrees, and desired to tighten its own requirements, may be seen in its giving up the practice of con- ferring such degrees in absentia. Honorary degrees have been condemned on the grounds that they are useless and misleading and that they lower the value of the earned degrees. It has been suggested that they should be conferred only on distinguished scholars, or, better still, that they be abolished alto- gether.38 The former proposal runs counter to one of the oldest uses of honorary degrees, namely, to place the university's stamp of ap- proval on persons of distinction in fields other than the academic. If the better colleges and universities are, as the writer believes, the insti- tutions that are most effective in upholding standards of excellence against the leveling influences in a democracy, honorary degrees are one means - a minor one, perhaps - by which excellence can be re- warded, and brought to the attention of a wider public. Nor need it be worthy laborers in obscure or little-known fields who alone are so honored and brought to public notice; by judicious selection, among figures already in the public eye, of the few whose achievements give promise of being most valuable and enduring, the universities may help, in a subtle but not negligible way, to make solid worth prevail over the flashy and meretricious. Fame, 'that last infirmity of noble mind,' is still one of the greatest of incentives; to many it has come in no guise more welcome than the public honors of a great university. KIMBALL C.

Phillips to George B. Dorr [7/28/1923] Windyknob Wenham Massachusetts. Dear Mr. Dorr, A couple of weeks ago I climbed up Katahdin by way of Hunt's trail. I have seen the mountain for the past twenty years but never went up before. Spent the night at the cave just below timber line. It is a grand place and I seldom enjoyed a brief outing more. Moose are certainly on the increase in that whole region and should never be shot there again. I hear that there are still some Martin and "fisher" cat in that big spruce basin called the Klondike of Joe Francis. It would be a fine thing if we could also save these two beasts, as otherwise there is no doubt that both will vanish from Maine within ten to twenty years. That is another good talking point for a park. How does the Great Northern stand now? And do you get any help from Fred Hale? 2. I am going to write Hale a letter today to see what he is doing. If I can help out in any little way let me know. I certainly want to see that place kept intact and not "noterised". The now road to Sourdnahunk Stream from Greenville is bad enough. I went out that way. Sincerely yours, John C. Phillips. July 28th Congratulations on your degree.

Dear Sir: I request that clearance be obtained from the Federal Real Estate Board for the renewal of the lease of the property in Bar Harbor used as an office and gen- eral headquarters of Lafayette National Park. The main office building is situated on the north- west corner of Park Road and Main Street, Bar Harbor, Maine. It is a story and a half building under which is a commodious cellar used for storage purposes and in which is located the hot water boiler which furnishes heat for the building. On the ground floor is a reception room dark no room? for visitors, the administrative office room of the Super- intendent, a hall way, a small room for hanging wraps and small storage and a room used by the Park Engineer as a drafting room. On the floor above is a hall way, dress- ing room, toilet and a spare room used for filing. The building contains 1944 square feet of floor space, all of which is in constant use. At the back of the same lot is located the garage, tool house and carpenter shop which are to be included in the lease for the 1924 fiscal year as was the case during the 1923 fiscal year. These three buildings are essen- tial to the storage of automobiles and tools belonging to the Park and the building used as a shop provides oppor- tunity where the carpenter employed by t he Park can do his work. The garage contains 432 square feet of floor space, the tool house contains the same amount and the carpenter shop contains 455 square feet of floor space.

A report of the The Famous Oneidas Outside of Boston how many know that Gerritt Smith Miller invented modern football? A historical sketch of "The Oneida Football Club of Boston" has been deposited in the archives of the Massachusetts Historical Society. The author is Winthrop Saltonstall Scudder, one of the original members of the Club. "Why was it, 11 it has been asked "That the Oneida Football Club not only never was beaten but that its goal was never crossed?" The answer: "It was because 'Gat' Miller and 'Cliff' Watson sat up nights working out the formations and stratagems of play on the field. They were pioneers in the art, which has now become SO complicated and SO popular. Walter Camp and Parke H. Davis have both testified that the Oneida of Boston was the first football club ever organized on a permanent basis. In a letter to Mr. Scudder, dated April 26, 1926, Mr Davis wrote: "In the deluge which poured down at the Harvard-Yale game at Cambridge in 1924, the spectacle of you yourself in a coonskin coat, standing on the side lines and with your 80 years defying, like Ajax, the rain, the hail, the thunder and lightning; was the most inspiring sight I have seen in forty years of football. Seven members of the Oneida Club, which vanquished all comers in the sixties, were photographed at the Monument to the Club erected by the City of Boston in 1925. The names of those heroes, whose average of years was 80, were: Gerritt $mith Miller, founder and captain; Edward Lincoln Arnold, Edward Bowditch, Robert Means Lawrence, James DeWolf Lovett, Francis Greenwood Peabody, and Winthrop Saltonstall Scudder. 2. Yet the Boston Daily Advertiser gave only a five-line notice to the game, which was played on November 7, 1863. The Oneida was the pioneer of the thousands of clubs that now attract their millions every autumn throughout the United States. It was made up from boys of Dixwell's, the Boston Public Latin and the Boston English High Schools. On November 7th, 1923, a tablet to honor Captain Miller was dedicated at the Noble and Greenough School, Dedham. This school is "a direct descendant" of Dixwell's. Dr. Charles W. Eliot, a pupil of Mr. Dixwell in 1848-9 spoke at the exercises, and so did Bishop William Lawrence, a member of the Oneida Football Club. It also included Henry Cabot Lodge, Arthur Sherburne Hardy, Henry Parkman, and Roger Walcott. "Here in the United States, 11 says Mr Scudder, "organized football was played on Boston Common in 1862 by the Oneida Club, made up of school boys, seven years before it was played by Rutgers and Princeton and thirteen years before the first game between Harvard and Yale. " The Boston Common brand of football was conducive to longevity. No sturdier group of old young men than the seven assembled about the Oneida Football Monument could be seen the world over. [C.B.Dorr ?] Pg. lof5. MONTHLY REPORT LAFAYETTE NATIONAL PARK AUGUST 1923. The month of August just closed has been one of the busiest months for Lafayette National Park since it was established. Although the number of visitors was about equal to that for August of last year their interest was greater and the demand upon those connected with the Park and its work was accordingly increased. It can well be said that the month, from the Park's standpoint, was the most successful yet. Scientific Observations. The Park has been fortunate this year during August in having among its visitors some of the foremost scientists of the country who have been engaged in re- search work along their several lines. Dr. Edgar Wherry, a soil expert from the Depart- ment of Agriculture, Bureau of Chemistry, in Washington, made a two weeks visit and during his stay he tested many of the soil beds within the Park to determine their value 2- in relation to the types of vegetation they support. The results of his investigations will be made the subject of a special report to the Park Superintendent which, when published, will form a valuable addition to those already in hand. Prof. Douglass Johnson, of Columbia University, a geologist recognized as an authority on coast line formations spent several days studying the present coast line of Mount Desert Island, as well as the ancient sea benches and surf-cut cliffs where once the sea broke against them, but now to be found a half mile or more in- land from the shore. His findings and observations will also be made available to those interested in geologic matters. Mr. Barrington Moore is continuing his scientific observations of forest evaporation and each week brings out some new feature of atmospheric conditions prevailing in the Park. The Marine Biological Laboratory established here through the efforts of the Park Superintendent has had a most successful season, biologists of note from every part V 3- of the country being in attendance at the laboratory and conducting research work in their several fields. The laboratory, according to the Director, Dr. Bahlgren from Princeton University, is now on a firm and perman- ent foundation and is becoming widely recognized as a biological laboratory of high order and offering oppor- tunity to scientists for the study of marine life in all its forms. Road Work. The road work undertaken in the Park last autumn through private subscription is continuing most satis- factorily. The first section of the Cadillac Mountain motor road is now open for motor traffic, the first cars having been admitted on Sunday, September tenth. This opening has created a very favorable impression and has added greatly to the interest taken locally in the develop- - ment of the Park. Active construction work is now being carried on on the Bubble Pond section of this road and it is hoped that work will be continued throughout the winter, but this depends wholly upon weather conditions. If weather permits and work is followed throughout the A 4- winter both sections will be ready for traffic by July next. Path Work. Much trail clearing and repairing has been ac- complished during August, about two hundred miles of con- structed trail having been gone over and put into shape. Considerable new construction has been undertaken and is progressing rapidly. Talks on the Park. On August 7th, Mr. Hadley, Chief Park Ranger, attended a luncheon of the Bangor Rotary Club, in Bangor, Maine, and at the close of the lunch gave a half hour's talk on Lafayette National Park. The talk was well re- ceived and at its close Mr. Hadley answered many questions relative to the Park and its development. Later in the month Mr. Herbert W. Gleason, of Boston, gave a talk to a hundred of the summer residents of Northeast Harbor at the home of Mrs. G. H. Milliken. His talk was illustrated with colored slides of scenes 5- within the Park. The talk created a very favorable impression among the summer visitors. Appalachian Mountain Club. Two groups of fifty members each camped this year, as last, at Echo Lake. Each group spent two weeks and enjoyed themselves to the utmost, covering practically all of the mountain trails and taking motor boat excursions on the adjoining ocean. They left feeling well repaid for their stay and the Club officials plan a similar excursion for next season. Leaves of Absence. There have been no leaves of absence for any reason granted to any members of the Park force during the month of August 1923. 14 HARBOR TIMES AR HARBOR RECORD INE, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 12, 1923 FIVE CENTS A COPY ANNUAL MEETING OF SECTION OF GREEN ALL SCHOOLS HERE HANCO A.

Eliot Northeast Harbor, Me., 14 September 1923 My dear Dorr: Before I built a house in 1881 near Northeast Harbor, I camped on Calf Island, Frenchman's Bay, for eight years, and then became very familiar with the shores of the Bay and all its passages and inlets which were safe for a good-sized sailing yacht which drew five feet and a half. I then made the acquaintance of Schoodic Head and all the approaches to it by land and water. During these years I repeatedly climbed Schoodic Head, and enjoyed the wonderful prospects northeasterly by Petit Manan and beyond towards Grand Manan, southwesterly towards Baker's Island, the Duck Islands, and Isle au Haut, and due west to the high hills of Mount Desert Island just across the bay. These prospects are unique. They are far the finest on the Atlantic Coast of the United States; and therefore the Head itself should be preserved in all its own beauty of geologic structure and forest decoration for the enjoy- ment of future generations. This conservation can be best made sure by adding the Schoodic Peninsula to the Lafayette National Park now established on Mount Desert Island. It will then come undu the scientific management of the natural Pad Service. Sureef yours, Chal W.
