National parks and monuments . whole-souled enthusiasm to the studyof natures methods and mysteries, not solely for his own satisfaction,but that he might interpret them to others and thus reveal somethingof their wonder, their beauty, and their spiritual significance. Toquote a word of tribute from one who knew him well :^ His was the vibrant voice that saug of Gods manifestation in the harmoniesand beauties of nature. His was the hand that pointed the way to the clearand high places of earth. His were the feet that beat paths for others to fol-low, leading to shrines in the forest or meadow, on the glacier or cliff of rocks,by the rivers edge, or on the mountains summit. His name will endure, notalone because it is written upon the Muir Glacier of Alaska or among the giantSequoias of the Muir Woods in California, but because it is written in lettersof sincere love upon the hearts of thousands whose lives his own has sweetenedand brightened for all time. 1 Prof. E. S. Meany, of the University of Washington. c ^V^.
