Additional Description:
Those responsible for scholarship
should remember that Humanities
cannot be fostered by confusing
instruction and education
that was my husband's
as well as my with that the
Mediterranean interpretation
of Humanities disciplines
shall predominate, that gardens
have their place in the humanitist
order of life and that trees
are noble elements to be protected
by successive generations
and not to be neglected
or lightly destroyed  —  Mildred Bliss
