Saunders. The fundamental idea of this camp-school is that the 

 natural history resources of such a wonderful region as the Park 

 should be made the basis for a unique educational experience which 

 is believed to be vastly superior to the conventional games and 

 athletic sports dominating so much of the activities of summer 

 camps. It is an excellent practical demonstration of the value of 

 nature guiding in the best sense of the word. 



The facilities of this Camp were generously made available to the 

 field party of the Station (see p. 38), and this cooperation was 

 greatly appreciated by the Station and the individual workers. The 

 presence of such a member on our staff and the familiarity with 

 conditions in the Park which Prof, and Mrs. Whitney possessed, 

 was a leading factor in developing our cooperative Park plans and 

 very naturally is keenly appreciated. 



Publications

 Many causes have contributed in delaying the publication of the 

 earlier investigations of the Station. The prospects now indicate an 

 early publication of manuscripts which have accumulated during

 services of Mr. Ernest Ingersoll for assistance in this editorial work. 



Wild Life Library 



The establishment of a wild life library is one of the distinctive 

 features of this Memorial. Station. This library is intended to include 

 not only books, magazines, and other publications but as well manu- 

 scripts, notebooks, photographs and all forms of valuable data on 

 forest wild life. Already a valuable nucleus of wild life photographs 

 and negatives have been accumulated, and the field workers of the 

 past season have made many important additions to this series. 

 There is a real need for repositories of this sort where, under proper 

 care, the materials will be available for use by the public. In addition 

 to valuable books purchased, other publications, including books, 

 magazines and pamphlets have been received as gifts, so that this 

 library is constantly growing.
