Brewer whom the studnts call the "Old Man." |
16_109 August 2, 1906. Brewer is now Emeritus Professor. Brewer occasionally talks to Forest School students. "It was my fate never to have a valuable useful tree named after me. Relics of an antediluvian age like Picea Breweriana or scrub oaks like Quercus Breweri." Toumey delights in 1 or 2 jokes says Carter. After spending some hours out on the snow identifying trees by their winter branchlets Toumey runs some man who hasn't been paying attention up against a common apple tree. After the student blunders a guess, Toumey says: Why that is a common apple tree. Haw, haw, haw. Also "You can recognize the Dogwood by its bark." |
