©hr Purlratt in tbr Mm ( fCxtt Whose is it Why is it there? A brief answer to these qi ' ostioiis may not be uninteresting to some who. perhaps, have never asked them, or thought about thetu. exeei)t in the vague, wondering way in whieh one is likely to think of things re- mole in time or phiee. The original of the portrait was Ira More, the first perma- ent principal of this school, who in the early years of its exist- ance determined its character, and established the enviable rep- utation it has ever since held in the eommuiiity. and as time has gone on. in wider fields. Mr. Flore ' s connection with normal schools began al- most with their beginning. He was one of a group of earnest men who owed their inspiration to Horace Mann, and under that inspiration carried the normal idea into many states, founding mother schools, nearly every one of which had at its head a man who. in turn, was a source of inspiration to those associated with him as teachers or students. Most of these men were gradiiates of one or the other of the two normal schools founded by Massachusetts in 1893 at Bridgewater and P ' ramingham. Some oi them had no wider trainiiig. but Mr. More was a graduate of Yale, as well as of the normal school at Bridgewater, and to that fact, no doubt, he was in part indebted for tlie i-orrect judg iient and the clear-cut s; (ecli so characteri.stie of the man. When the first Illinois normal school was established in 1857, Mr. More l)ecame one of its teachers, and to him fell the work of organization to sucli an extent that his iuqn-ess was strongly stamped upon the institution. On the breaking out of the civil war, he went into the army as captain of a eomjiany composed mainly of his own students, in a regiment known as the school-masters regiment. of which the j)rin- cipal of the Illinois school was the colonel, and in which prac- tically all the men teachers and students served as privates. At the close of the war, he found his health so impaired that he sought the benefit of a northern climate, and removed to Minnesota, where he was for two years professor of Math- matics in the University of Minnesota. P rom 1869 to 1875 he was principal of the state normal school at St. Clouil. which ()Osition he gave up to come to California, hoijing to prolong the life of an invalid daughter. Here he soon became eon- nected with the San Jose school, where he taught until 1883. At that time he was made principal of this school, which had been established the year before as a branch state normal school under the vice-principalship of Mr. ( ' . J. Flatt, who remained for several years as teacher of mathematics. Is the portrait a good one? In the main. -es ; but in some particulars it fails to do more than suggest the striking char- ai-teristics so familiar to those who placed it there, the alumni of the earlier classes, who sought by their gift to express their love and esteem for one who had made so deep an im- pression on their lives, and to hand down his memory to those who were to be influenced as strongly, perha])S. as they had been, by the institution over which he had so wisely presided.
