ETHEL G. BARTLETT EMERSON 3, 1200 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge Child, child, that’s no way to - - - water running all over the floor, spatters all over the wall (but what lovely patterns). She herself is no mean aquarellist. Shame it can’t be served as water wings to the number who never learn to swim in this medium. ZELLA BUCKINGHAM, 460 Huntington Ave., Boston A charming, retiring lady, gray eyed like Athena. Very much interested in modern art for all one tries to connect her with early French painters. Chardin, you know, is among the moderns; he being on the preferred list. E. WILBUR DEAN HAMILTON, Trinity Court, Boston His eyes see more than most. He can see a vibration when a light hits a dark and he paints it there. He’s great on glasses and measuring with sticks. Painting in his class amounts to a ritual of pacing ten feet from the canvas, sighting and putting the right shape, the right color, in the right place. And fate laughs. ANNA MAEHUE HATHAWAY Porcelain figurines, midnight velvet, wet violets, a breath of lavender, a wisp of old lace. This charming, fragile little ladv inspires a feeling of what is known as old world chivalry strangely foreign to our brusque, gauche ways. IRMA COFREN, 1284 Beacon St., Brookline ”.Ah, make the most of what we yet may spend before we too unto the dust descend,” as Miss Cofren does. Always costumed in a harmony of color, she is a charming illustration of her teaching and staccatos about her class room with contagious enthusiasm.

LUDWIG FRANK, 191 Kent St., Brookline A kind, conscientious teacher and a genial friend is Mr. Frank to those few who know him. And those who only see him around school being chatty and pleasant and looking uncommonly like one of those lovable old English actors would certainly like to know him. JESSIE MacDONALD, 383 Boylston St., Boston Dashing on we go, through the horrors, the berries, panics, grand and smart; then by and by it is good design. After all there’s nothing like design. Miss MacDonald knows. JOHN E. ALCOTT, 55 Florence Ave., Norwood An Intelligent, Delightful Associate, Adept in Design Art. Always Incouraging Diligent At- tempts at Industrial Design. AID A — A-I-D A- Ad Infinitum. MARTHA M. FLINT, 267 High St., Newburyport Always talking, always smiling, always hunting for a needle. This lady has charge of the draft- ing room, generally peaceful, becomes utter chaos during pageant times. She is lenient with the dumb but never with the dodgers. MARY M. RUGG, 44 Hobomack Rd., Quincy She keeps in touch with what ' s new in styles of illustration by being in the game herself. Be- sides teaching and free lance work she maintains a home and raises two sons. By now everyone must know that she is continually being taken for a student. It ' s been said for years. [ 8 ]

EFFIE BYRON WFUTTET, 15 Chilton Rd., West Roxbury A cheery word, a bit of gossip, mercurochrome for a cut finger. She does odd jobs such as hiring models (as many an instructor will sadly aver) and locking the library door when you simply must get in. AMY RACHEL WHITTIER, 98 Chestnut St., Boston If you could keep your mind from her dancing eyes and such valentiny thoughts as violet, sweet and sweetness of violets,” you might have time to realize what a clever woman is. LAURIN H. MARTIN, 14 Park St., Lowell There can be no doubt in your mind that the solder is gone. As we hear this, said in just that way, we know it’s Mr. Martin, metal craftsman, helping him forward in his art, teaching him the mastery of metal. ELLA MUNSTERBERG, 35 Claflin Rd., Brookline Two brilliant fish and a wee turtle peered from their dwelling. What ' s this, they asked, of Nefrotite Gaugin, “and why today tomorrow will be yesterday? Ah, yes, that lady who likes roses. ELIZABETH W. PERKINS, 231 Perkins St., Jamaica Plain A most mysterious lady appearing on Wednesdays like the Midweekly Pictorial and absconds for all the rest of the week. She teaches observation. Anyone w ' ho can teach one to really see should be decorated.
