[105] ROOSEVELT ON WILD LIFE INVESTIGATION " There must be ample research in the laboratory in order even to present those problems, not to speak of solving them, and there can be no laboratory study without the accumulation of masses of dry facts and specimens. " I also mean that from now on it is essential to recognize that the best scientific men must largely work in the great out-of-doors laboratory of nature. It is only such outdoors work which will give us the chance to interpret aright the laboratory observations." Theodore Roosevelt. THE RELATION OF FORESTS AND FORESTRY TO HUMAN WELFARE " Forests are more than trees. They are rather land areas on which are associated various forms of plant and animal life. The forester must deal with all. Wild life is as essentially and legitimately an object of his care as are water, wood, and forage. Forest administration should be planned with a view to realizing all possible benefits from the land areas handled. It should take account of their indirect value for recreation and health as well as their value for the production of salable material ; and of their value for the production of meat, hides, and furs of all kinds as well as for the production of wood and the protection of water supplies. " Unquestionably the working out of a program of wild life protection which will give due weight to all the interests affected is a delicate task. It is impossible to harmonize the differences between the economic, the esthetic, the sporting, and the commercial viewpoint. Nevertheless, the practical difficulties are not so great as they appear on the surface." Henry S. Graves, Former Chief Forester, U. S. Forest Service. Recreation, Vol. 52, p. 236, 1915.

  • A Chronicle of the Wood Family
    YORKSHIRE TO WESTCHESTER A CHRONICLE OF THE WOOD FAMILY By_ HERBERT BARBER HOWE PUBLISHED IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA By THE TUTTLE PususHING Co., INC. · Edwin F. Sharp, Lessee RUTLAND, VERMONT 1948 ]AMES Woon 1762-1852 THIS BOOK IS DEDICATED TO THE COUSINS GRACE WOOD HAVILAND AND ELIZABETH RUNYON HOWE WHO OWN THE HOUSES BUILT BY THEIR GRANDFATHERS ON THE LAND ACQUIRED BY THEIR GREAT-GREAT-GRANDFATHER COUNTY OFFICE BUILDING WHITE PLAINS, NEW YORK The Westchester County Historical Society welcomes this volume as an important addition to the history of a rapidly changing country­ side. Mr. Howe, who is the highly effective editor of the Society's Bulletin, has been resourceful in his research and engaging in his presentation of his findings. Many a genealogical clue has been fol­ lowed to the point where an important discovery concerning persons or events was possible. Yet Mr. Howe is insistent that there are still loose ends in his study; for the absence of records can thwart the most determined chronicler. The story of the Wood family, from the days of the restless Puri­ tans in Yorkshire to the present era in Westchester, is richly furnished with exciting incidents and worthy achievements. The Tory an­ cestor during the American Revolution, who migrated to Nova Scotia and there built for himself a new life, is typical of many per­ sons in Westchester, who could not follow the signers of the Declara­ tion of Independence in their decision to break allegiance ro the British Empire. In the case of the Wood family the conflicting theories of empire brought a break in family ties during those troub­ lous years; and the task of the family historian was thus made much more difficult.

  • The Syracuse Chamber of Commerce Lists Eleven Reasons for Support by Syracusans of the Million Dollar Drive; They Are: 1
    ANNALS The Syracuse Chamber of Commerce lists eleven reasons for support by Syracusans of the million dollar drive; They are: 1. "To clear the University of debt by June 30, 1927, $1,500,000 must be raised. Pledges on a three year basis. 2. "Paying present obligations will cancel interest charges after which any small deficit can easily be taken care of. 3. "After the University sets its house in order, it will be in a better position to ·expect assistance from capitalists and endowment foundations. 4. "From a business standpoint the University is the largest industry in the city and means more financially to our merchants than any two of our largest manufacturing plants. Students and employes spend over $6,500,000 a year in Syracuse. 5. "Two thousand sons and daughters of residents of Syracuse and On­ ondaga County attend the University. Probably one-half this number could not afford to .go away to college. This will be true of future gen­ erations. 6. "We cannot estimate what contact with the University means to our citizens educationally, religously. 7. "The University has added millions of dollars to real estate values in the city. Many parents who move here to educate their children stay here permanently. Many graduates become Syracusans. 8. "The 450 faculty members mingle in the life of Syracuse and give the city the benefit of their culture and learning. 9. "The University is the city's best advertising medium. 10. "The emergency fund campaign threeyearsagofellshort $500,000. Nor did it provide for interest and deficits until the pledges became due.

PR EFACE The genealogical records of the IRELAND family, so far as conveniently accessible, were originally sought for. to ascertain the date of its settlement on American soil, and simply for the gratification and satisfaction of the writer. Other parties have since evinced an interest in them, and expressed a desire for their publication. Without attempting to give a full history of the collateral branches of the family, of whom it was found difficult to obtain accurate informa­ tion, the chain of direct descent from our first American ancestor. THOMAS IRELAND, is perfect to the ninth generation in the male line, and to the tenth in the female line. Although the male representatives of the family in the present genera­ tion are few. some future descendant may find the present records a con­ venient foundation on which to enlarge and complete the genealogy of a race distinguished—with rare exceptions -for sterling integrity, easy good­ nature and kind-heartedness, and ready willingness to advance the interests of others, and an unambitious contentment with a medium rank in life.
