She has held the position ol' lrlead of the Art Department of the Boston Normal School, and that ol' Super- visor of Art in this city's Public Schools Miss Cleaves has had great success :is a lecturer, and never fails to make her lectures both instructive and entertaining. She is an artist in practice as well IINIl1IllCOI'y,I1lJVlI'lll exhibited pencil sketches, and works in oil and water color. Last, but not least, we :irc very fond of her, and with rcusonl IRIVIA COFREN 1334 Commonwealth Avenue, Boston, Mass. Born and bred a Bostonian. Four years at Normal Art, together with natural enthusiasm and talents, prepared her for the position of assistant to Mr. George and that of an instructor in the Costume Design course. The hrst year is always the hardest so we feel that she is now over the worst! If she has enjoyed us half as much as we have enjoyed her, this successful year, her first as a member of the faculty, must hold many pleasant memories. JOSEPH GOSS COWELL 221 Columbus Avenue, Boston, lvlass. Wrentham. lvlass. Instructor in Oil Painting, Cast and Figure Drawing Born in Peoria Illinois Pupil ofl.aurens in Paris Mr, Cowell is an important ad- dition to the faculty this year. He carries his instruction outside the classroom, which is indicative of the individual and personal interest he shows toward his students. This interest, however, must be won with honest effort by each pupil. Best known among his works are his murals and stained glass windows in St. Mary's Cathedral, murals in the Universalist Church, and Y. M. C. A. building-all in Peoria, Ill. Also he has decorations in theaters at Holyoke and Boston 16 xl P It A s 7 4 MART 500 E Bt 267 High Slrt home address We believe IX edge of eve taining to t This, togethe is always a 5 her, strength as an instruct sign class.

Burn in Leominster, Affuss. We, who are anxious to teach with- out coming under the term of school marm, Gnd infinite relief in Miss XVhittier, who is such a successful teacher of teachers. She is the last person one would think of as a school marmn type! Be- cause of her study of the character and needs of each individual who comes under her tutelage, and be- cause we soon learn that she is never too busy to give us her interest and sympathy, we feel that we have indeed found in her one whom we may at once love as a chum and respect as an instructor. She has studied at M. N. A. S., the Cowles Art School, Harvard, and at the universities of Boston and Chicago. ln the hrst and last of these schools she has also been a teacher as well as at Bangor, Maine, Lowell, Mass.: and Cleveland, Ohio. RAYMOND AVERILL PORTER 33l Harvard Street, Cambridge, Mass. Born al Herman, N. Y. Mr. Porter's genial personality is in itself a welcome to the modeling and sculpture rooms. Although he attended the Chicago Art Institute, he feels that from his successive opportunities of associating and working with the country's finest sculptors, he has received more benehts than any school could offer. NVc, who cannot but observe evi- dences of the wonderful friendship between Nlr. Porter and lvlr. Dallin, wonder what would happen should the latter omit one of his bi-weekly visits to the sculpture class! Deco- rative sculpture in bronze is Mr. Porter's choice, but we know that his works, exhibited at many art centers, cover a wide range of subject. Public monuments created by him may be found not only in various American cities, but also in Cuba and Hawaii. l JAMES lvlACE ANDRESS e7 Clyde Street, Newtonville, Mass. 'feuclier 'l'rat'r1ing. Horn in Cliexuning, Alicliigun. Dr. Andrcss has been here as an instructor in Psychology since lOl 5. l'le is also at the head of the De- partment of Psychology and Social Hygiene at the State Normal School, Worcester. He holds an awe-inspiring number of degrees! From the Michigan State Normal College he received B.Pd. and A B. degrees, Ph Nl. from the University of Chicago, A M. from Harvard, and Ph.D. from Clark University. Dr. Andress is especially interested in the health and better conditions in the schools and is the author of a number of hooks on this subject. - ,.-.. ...ein .- RICHARD ANDREXV Fenway Studios, 30 Ipswich Street, Boston, lvlass. l73 Stratford Street, XVest Roxbury, Nlass.

XVe believe lvliss Flint has a knowl- edge of everything possibly per- taining to the art of costuming This, together with the fact that it is always a pleasure to work with her, strengthens her position here as an instructor ofthe Costume De- sign class. She studied in Cincin- nati, New York, and Boston, and, before coming here spent ten years teaching in the S. F. liaylor School, one of those in which she received training. also for four years at the Everett Evening School. The Gloucester School of the Little Theater elected her as a member of its staff during the summer. ANNA MAYHEW IIATHAWAY l-400 Commonwealth Avenue. Allston, Mass. ivliss Hathaway is a true daughter of lvfassachusetts fshe was born in Brocktoni. XVhat could be finer loyalty to one's native state than the effort to search out and draw attention to its natural beauties? Miss Hathaway is a past master at this art, as is obvious in her many exhibited sketches of New England scenes She studied at the Lowell School of Design, Boston, and after graduating from this school spent two years instructing at Rindge Technical School. ln spite of the fact that she has been a teacher of design here since l9l0, she is still a student, having attended Har- vard Summer School in l9l8-20-23. XVe also admire her for strength and sweetness of personality. One last word -she is a good sport! WALTER W. JAMISON ALBERT S. KENDALL liRNliST I.. MAjOR il NValker Street, Cambridge, Mass. Englixli Com,'w.ri1ian and Lileraittre. Barn in Freclantl, Pennsyliitinitz. The unpardonable sin is dullness, says ivfr. Jamison. This is con- sistently followed by the fact that his classes are conducted in a manner decidedly not dull! This is the first year that English has been taught here to any who desire it. l-low our conversation must have suffered in previous years without the English class for an outstanding topic! And the seasoning of Mr. Jamison's surprising and humorous remarks which have, in many in- stances, become by-words with us. Mr. Jamison has taught at Bates College, Chicago High School, and at Wentworth lnstitute. He is a graduate of Yale and has studied in Columbia University and Harvard, receiving an A.M. from the latter institution. 73 Parker Street. Newton Centre, lvfass. Arcliileclurul Drafting. Horn in Watltinglon, D. C. Someday when we are able to draw mouldings, blindfolded, we shall erect a pedestal of lonic for shall it be Corintheanb design, in honor of Mr. Kendall! We feel that he certainly deserves appreciation. The casual manner in which he presents each new problem is very complimentary to us, since it seems to imply that we are capable of doing anything, no matter how mystifying it may seem at the time. This form of auto-suggestion with concise directions and ever patient and good-humoretl assistance is his method of putting it over. Mr. Kendall studied at Harvard - re- ceiving an A.B. degree in l005g this training was supplemented b in- struction at Massachusetts flnsti- tute of Technology and in Paris.

Courteous of manner, sincere of purpose, and with a keen sense of humor, Mr Major has endeared himself to everyone who has come in Contact with him. liven the most timid come to realize that his often forceful and astonishing criticisms are all for the sake of beauty and truth in art. To find illustrations of ravishing, el1erche:, and of the whistle that means a clean brush stroke, and to learn what can result from the continued practise of obeying the impulse to half close your eyes and stand on your head, you have but to visit the Art Guild or St. liotolph's Club where, if you do not find a whole exhibit ofivlr. Nlajor's paintings - you will, at almost anytime, find at least one or two hanging in u place of honor. 17
