ARTICLE 2.
Upon motion duly made by Dr. Gordon O. Thayer it was
UNANIMOUSLY VOTED: Adoption of the following sentiments and Reso- lutions for Appreciation of Stacy Baxter Southworth:
Resolutions for Appreciation of Stacy Baxter Southworth March 16, 1964
Mr. Moderator, Town Meeting Members, and Friends:
John J. Canavan, Sr., your Town Moderator, has asked me to prepare a "Suitable resolution to be presented to the 1964 Annual Town Meeting, re- garding Stacy B. Southworth's great service to the community, and recognize with sorrow his retirement as a Town Meeting Member." It is my privilege and honor to present this statement of appreciation on the occasion of the Town Meeting opening on March 16, 1964.
Dr. Stacy B. Southworth rendered his first service to the Town of Brain- tree soon after he came here to live in 1921 and has continued to serve these many years. In 1921 he was appointed to the Board of Trustees of the Thayer Public Library to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation of the Reverend Tyler Gale. In March, 1929, he was elected to be Chairman of the Board, re- placing Judge Albert E. Avery. His untiring and devoted efforts through the ensuing years gave Braintree the finest of library services and facilities in the state for a town of its size. As early as 1939 the Trustees saw the need for a new library building in view of the crowded and inadequate situation at the old building. In 1945 a preliminary building committee was appointed to look into sites for a new location. Money was appropriated for land on either side of Washington Park Road in 1948. A Library Building Committee was appointed in 1949, and Dr. Southworth was named chairman. Under his guid- ance and forthright presentation at town meetings, action toward new library facilities was taken: $20,000 was made available for furnishings in 1951; by 1952 money needed for a modern building was appropriated. The committee was authorized to proceed with plans and specifications. On November 3, 1953, the new Thayer Public Library was dedicated, and on the following day it was opened to the public.
Three years later, Dr. Southworth retired from the Board of Trustees of the library. On May 17, 1956, a public testimonial dinner in his honor was held at the Thayer Academy gymnasium. As a memorial gift to Dr. South- worth, a sum of money was designated by his friends for the establishment of a Lincoln Book Collection. In February, 1959, on the 150th anniversary of Abraham Lincoln's birth, Dr. Southworth donated to the Thayer Public Library his personal collection of over 100 books and pamphlets dealing with the life of Abraham Lincoln.
Recognizing Dr. Southworth's outstanding work in civic leadership, Governor Leverett Saltonstall appointed him to the Massachusetts Board of Free Public Library Commissioners in 1939. As a member of the board, he was recognized for increasing the number of bookmobiles throughout the Commonwealth. He retired from the statewide board in December, 1956, after serving eighteen years as chairman.
Other service to the town came in his Town Meeting membership. Shortly after 1938 when a limited form of town government was voted, Dr. Southworth, ever ready to assume a responsible place in civic affairs, offered himself for election as a Town Meeting Member. According to town records, he was elected on March 4, 1940, by voters of Precinct 2, to serve his first three-
48
year term, receiving 615 votes, which was the highest number among the candidates. He served continually as a Town Meeting Member until the recent expiration of his term on March 2, 1964. During nearly a quarter- century of dedicated service in our limited town government and forty-three years of active participation in town affairs, he was on frequent occasions called to serve on Town Meeting committees. For the 750th Anniversary Celebration of Braintree, Essex, England, he headed a booklet committee to prepare such information and comments on the Town of Braintree, Massa- chusetts, as would be of interest to the townspeople of Braintree, England.
Dr. Southworth noted in 1950: "I am deeply grateful for ... the opportunity that is still mine to serve the public welfare. This is as I would wish it." It was also the Town of Braintree would have it, for in April of that year he was chosen by the Board of Selectmen to represent the Citizens of Braintree, Massachusetts, as the official delegate to the 750th Anniversary of out Mother Town, Braintree, Essex, England. On this historic occasion he participated in the civic celebration as our ambassador of good will. His eminence, spirit of friendliness, and dignity of person won friendships that have endured through the years. The bonds of friendship between the two Braintrees across the seas have remained unbroken. The mementos and gifts in the archives and libraries of both towns give visible evidence of the marked stature of our ambassador.
Dr. Southworth has been awarded a remarkable number of honors and awards. Born in Quincy, Massachusetts, on September 27, 1878, he re- ceived an A.B. degree in June, 1900, from Harvard College. He was honored with a Doctorate of Letters from Colgate University in 1941. In 1918 he was elected president of the Boston Schoolmen's Association. This was followed by the presidency of the Massachusetts Schoolmaster's Club in 1931. Other state or regional offices include president of the Bay State League and presi- dent of the Associated Harvard Clubs of New England. His civic leadership includes charter member and past president of the Braintree Rotary Club and past president of the Braintree Historical Society. One of the highest honors awarded to educators in the United States is the Golden Key presented to him by the American Association of School Administrators in Atlantic City in 1948, which came at the close of his headmastership of 28 years at Thayer Academy, Braintree, Massachusetts. Other distinctions, too numerous to list here mark him as one of the most distinguished Braintree citizens of our generation.
Dr. Southworth's civic life was deeply influenced by the challenge President Charles W. Eliot gave to his graduating class of 1900. "Look for the means, the chance, the opportunity to serve democratic government. Democracy is that form of government which leaves every citizen free to do his best for the public service." He accepted the challenge and has lived it day in and day out.
We are a better community because he has enriched the lives of all of us through his lasting contribution as former chairman of our Thayer Public Library.
We are better citizens of Braintree by reason of his dedication to those causes which advanced the welfare of his fellow men - doing his best for the public good, giving of himself unsparingly, never counting the cost.
We are better men and women because his exemplary community spirit has been for many years unselfish in service, honest in thought, fair-minded in counsel, and courageous in action.
Be it resolved that: this expression of appreciation be spread upon the records of the Annual Town Meeting of March 16, 1964.
49
And be it further resolved that: a copy of this Letter of Appreciation be sent to him.
