THE KENTUCKY KERNEL

VOLUME XLI

An old cowboy and ranchman
turned historian will tell some ab-
sorbing tales of the old West to-
night at 8 pm. in Guignol Theatre.
Dr. Thomas D. Clark. head of the
History Department. has announced.

Dr. Edward Everett Dale. research
professor of history at Oklahoma
University. who will give an en-
thusiastic interpretation of the
West in his distussion of "The
Spirit of the Frontier.“ is appearing
as a Blazer lecturer under the
sponsorship of the History Depart-
ment. There will be no admission
charge.

Lectures of a public nature are
sponsored regularly by the History
Department through a fund given
annually by Mr. and Mrs. Paul G.
Blazer of Ashland. Mrs. Blazer is a
member of the University Board of
Trustees.

“DR. DALE IS KNOWN NA-
TIONALLY as a charming story
teller and has a great reputation as
a humorist." Dr. Clark stated. “Many
will probably recall his popular lec-
tures given here at the University
two years ago."

The noted historian has lived
much of the Western life on which
he will be lecturing. Ranching in
Texas and Oklahoma was all he
know until he turned to country
school teaching at the age of 23
shortly after the turn of the century.

As his yen for teaching and his-
tory of the West increased..he pre-
pared himself further for his aca-
demic career. He was graduated
from Central State Teachers Col-
lege of Oklahoma in 1909. and in
1911 received his AB. degree from
Oklahoma University. He earned his
MA. degree from Harvard in 1914
and his PhD. in 1922.

ALL OF HIS COLLEGE TEACH-
ING has been at Oklahoma Uni-
versity. where he first held the po—
sition of instructor in history in
1914. His successive positions were
professor of history and head of the
department. 1924 to 1942. and grad-
uate professor of history and di-
rector of the Frank Phillips collec-
tion for the year 1942-1943. He has
been research professor of history
since 1943. .

Dr. Dale has written extensively

of his native area. Besides “A His-
tory of Oklahoma." he has turned

Country." Tales of lore are re-
corded in such books as “Frontier
Trails." “A Rider of the Cherokee
Strip,“ and “Tales of the Tepee."

THE POPULAR LECTURER has
also done research work at places
other than at Oklahoma University.
In 1925 he was a collaborator in his-
torical research for the U. S. De-
partment of Agriculture and in
1926-1927 was a member of the
Indian Survey Commission of the
US. Institute for Government Re-
search.

He holds membership in and is
former president of the Mississippi
Valley Historical Association; Agri-
cultural Historical Association; and
the Oklahoma State Folk Lore As-
sociation. He also holds member—
ship in the American Historical As-
sociation. the Southern Historical
Association. the Oklahoma Histor-

Prof. Gillis Measures Life
By Service, Not Success

Bylflllughey

The life of Prof. Ezra L Gillis

would make a touching novel. It
would be the story of a man who
measures life not by years or by
popular succes. but by the service
he is able to render to his fellow
man.
Prof. Gillis. who heads UK's
Bureau of Source Materials for
Higher Biucation. has contributed
nothisuyearstotheserviceof
the University and the State of
Kentucky. Inst year he was.the re-
cipient of the University‘s Sullivan
Medallion. a presentation made an-
nually to the Commonwealth's “out-
standing citinn of the year."

In this ceremony. President Dono-
van mid him the kind of tribute
which can come only from lasting
affection and respect. Prof. Gillis
taught Herman Lee Donovan in
high school. Dr. Donovan recently
said any success he has made was
due greatly to the influence of Prof.
Gillis.

The genial professor keeps a
quotation in his office which is an
insight into his philosophic nature.
It reads: “You can do a lot of good
in the world if you don‘t care who
gets the credit." The August. 1947.
edition of “The Kentucky Alumnus"
carried the pictures and biographical

sketches of UK alums killed during
World War II. Gathering the neces-
sary information was quite a job.
The credit was due Prof. Gillis but
he did not want it said. in the
publication.

IN 1942 PROF. GILLIS was
honored at a Chicago luncheon
given by his former students. Prof.
Gillis seems to relish this tribute.
partly. it seems. because he was
honored that day by a lengthy poem
composed by J. T. Cotton Noe, UK
professor and poet laureate of Ken-
tucky. The poem ended thus:

Those incidents and anecdotes

That grip our minds, sometimes
our throats.

Another proof of Nature‘s plan—

The Boy is Father of the Man.

"If anyone feels himself indis-
pensable. he should fill a bucket
with water. put his finger in. then
take a look at the hole that is left."
This is a quotation tpyical of the
Professor.

Prof. Gillis was born in 1867 in a
log house on Beaver Creek in An-
derson County. Kentucky. He be-
gan teaching in 1884.

In 1899 he came to Lexington
and attended Transylvania College
and in 1902 he went to Mason
County as president of Minerva Col-
lege.

Prof. Gillis came to UK in 1907
as an instructor in the Normal De-
partment. Later he became an as-
sistant professor. In 1910 he became
the first UK registrar, and served
in that capacity until 1937. It was
on this occasion that Dr. Donovan
said:

“WHEN YOU WERE APPOINT-
ED on the faculty of the University
in 1907. the office of registrar was
virtually unknown in university
circles. You dignified this office
and made it one of the most im-
portant administrative agencies of a
university."

Prof. Gillis was called on to train
many of the registrars of other col-
leges and universities. He helped
organize the American Association
of Collegiate Registrars and served
as secretary-treasurer and as presi—
dent of the organization.

In 1937 Prof. Gillis reached 70.
That is the retirement age for UK
personnel but he refused to quit
work. He founded and for 14 years
has directed the Bureau of Source
Materials in Higher Education. .

The Professor saw the University
of Kentucky grow from infancy. He
possesses all sorts of illustrated
anecedotes concerning UK. He is
an institution within himself.

Be Consistent WithChild,
Sociologist Tells Institute

Parents who spank a child one
day. only to coddle him the next
for the same offense. make it im-
possible for their offspring to
understand or trust his universe.
Dr. Mildred 1. Morgan, Florida State
University sociologist. told dele-
gates to UK‘s fifth annual Family
Life Institute recently.

Dr. Morgan told the UK audience
that consistency in the emotional
climate of the home is of major
importance in giving children a
feeling of stability.

A child with one over-protecting
parent and another who is stern and
unyielding must be a tight-rope
walker. she said. “Indeed fortunate
is the child who knows that both
his parents can be counted on to be
the same and they stand to-
gether in the things they believe
about him and his behavior.“

DR. MORGAN DECLARED that
the duties of parents would be
simple if children could be given
immunization shots against emo-
tional disorders as they are for
diphtheria. tetanus or typhOid. In-
deed. she went on. parents must at-
tempt to build children‘s emotional
strength through ordinary family
experience.

Parents do well. Dr. Morgan said.
who enlist the aid of their children
in family planning and who allow
their children. in so far as their age
and experience warrant. to share in
family responsibilities. Sharing such
experiences gives the child a sense
of belonging. she said.

Birthday and holiday celebrations
in which the entire family par-
ticipates, were cited as other ex-
amples of ordinary. but helpful. ex-
periences that promote family unify.
Dr. Morgan said. "The old saying.

hoped. Dr. Vandenbosch continued.
that the stimulation aroused from
this cross fertilization of ideas will
be fruitful of a clearer conception
of the role of parties in responsible
democratic government.

Among the practical politicians to
be featuied during the institute will
be Congressman Patrick J. Billings
of California. Senator Paul H. Doug-
las of Illinois. and the Hon. John
Sherman Cooper of Kentucky.

FOLLOWING EACII OF THE
SPEECHES there will be an open
forum period during which the top-
ic of the period will be discussed.

Dr. Vandenbosch has Lssued invx-
tations to political science teachers
all over Kentucky. as well as to
numerous Kentucky politicians. and
he expects a goodly turnout from
their ranks.

Committees Then And Now

One hundred and seventy-live years ago the committee system
in our national government apparently functioned better than it
lltlt s today This could be because in 1776 committees were ap-
p tllllt‘tl for noble purimses—such as for the Writing of the Declara~
tinn oI Independence.

t present it appears that Washington committees are formed
fur no nobler purpose than to dig up political dirt about opposi-
tion bigwigs. One wonders whether there is any comparison
lu-twwn the framers ot the Declaration of Independence and the
party—mimled politicians senile: on a number of current govern»
nwnt committees.

The Fight Will Go On

\pparently there is now some basis for believing that the fight-
inu in Korea will soon end.

lint .1 truce in Korea will not mean that the line has been held
1'_' znst totalitarianism. Above all. we must not be lured into the
'vmlisli dream that the world is on the verge of peace.

The .\nn'rican people must have foresight enough and courage
IIHHIL‘II to continue the present build—up of our defenses. even
\ 1thont the impetus of bloody war.
