Presentation of the Herbert Ward African collection was made to the £mithsonian I itution this after- noon by Mrs. Sarita Sanford Ward, widow of the English explorer, who collected many of the ethnological objects in the collection and was the sculptor of others during his years | of adventure. Vice President Coolidge accepted the collection on Lehalf of the insti- tution and, he said, for “the future gencrations America, who, in years 1o come, will be instructed and ini pressed with the beauty of this unique assemblage of objects &yin- bolizing the ethnology of Afric: Sketches Life of Hus Mrs. Ward eketched the early life of {her late husband in her address of presentation.

During all this time in any spare moments he made drawings and sketches of the African native and his surroundings.” Dectdes on Presentation. Mrs. Ward said that many of the statues were developed in later years in France. Then Mrs. Ward told how and when he decided to deposit the collection in the Smithsonian Insti- tution. “We came to Washington for_ the first time as guests of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas gfelson Page.” she sald. “It was then that we visited the Smith- sonian Institution, and my husband was deeply impressed with the won- derful organization of this museum and the fact that it had been found- | ed by an Engiishman. Soon after this, the idex occurred to him to present this collection to the Smithsonian In- | | stitution. where he felt it would be | understood and appreciated and of | value from an enthnographical point {of view, because of the large num- country.” Mrs. Ward sald that her husband would have presented and arranged the collection himself. but the war came, and he died soon after.
