ffacults flDies Butterfielfc ' s Departure Although it has been known for some months that Miss Helen Butterfield would not continue teaching in the University after this year, the official announcement of her resignation did not occur till a short time ago. Miss Butterfield is an alumnus of this University, having belonged in her college days to a group of girls noted for being at once gay social leaders and excellent students. After graduating in 1891, she taught English in the Mattoon High School for two years, and then spent a year in advanced study of English at Radcliffe College. She found the influences and opportunities of Harvard and Boston as beneficial and enjoy- able as they must ever be to young, enthu- siastic seekers after knowledge. The next year she returned to the Uni- versity of Illinois as Assistant in Rhetoric. Shortly afterward a Department of Rhet- oric was created, with Professor T. A. Clark as head It was thus made possible to give much more time and attention to this most important subject. New and effective methods of teaching were introduced, and the old-fashioned grind of composition writ- ing was turned into a pleasing and useful though none the less difficult task. In this labor ot reform Miss Butterfield proved a most stimulating coadjutor; and at the same time her suggestions for the increase of gen- eral literary culture have been good and fruitful. l r or several years she has been a faithful member of the committee on students ' welfare, and has always eagerly helped any project to further the social or private well- being of students. Her genial personality and winning manner have brought her many friends, and her cheery greeting and ready good humor will long be missed in the social gatherings of University people. In the new relations and duties upon wbich she will enter by her marriage, she is followed by the siucerest desires of all that know her for happiness and prosperity, and The Iu.io takes this opportunity to offer congratulations and good wishes.
