REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT

To the Members of the Pennsylvania Museum and School of Indus- trial Art.

Ladies and Gentlemen:—I herewith submit to you the report of the Director of the Museum, Principal of the School and Treasurer of the Corporation. These three reports are extremely interesting and are worthy your careful consideration. The good work referred to one year ago, as having resulted from the efforts of the Director of the Museum, has been continued during the last year, covering a scope of increasing range and affording a most comprehensive view of the work of the Museum. All the various subjects have been treated in a careful and im- pressive manner. Their perusal cannot fail to excite a desire to know our Museum more intimately, and to become better ac- quainted with its opportunity for influencing the artistic sentiment in this country. Philadelphia has always been in the foreground of scientific and industrial publications, and the periodical which has been given to the public, from time to time, by the Museum authorities, under the special editing of Dr. Barber, is well worthy to take its place among the records that have so frequently distinguished our citizens. The publication of last year, an art handbook on the "Maiolica of Mexico," is a distinct acquisition to information on these lines, and it is gratifying to know that it has met with a good reception at the hands of the purchasing public, not only here, but in Europe and Mexico as well.

Under the item of "Bequests" is a distinct statement as to the beneficent results derived from public-spirited individuals 10 who have remembered this corporation and given valuable additions to the Museum. The thoughtful presentation of this matter cannot but influence those who may be friendly toward our institution to do likewise.

The allusion to the Temple Trust and its influence upon our work is timely, and brings before us again the remembrance of our old-time benefactor, and the fact that the annual income left by him for our use has been a most important addition to our strength, enabling us to add continually to our list of Museum objects. Under the head of "Collections," we are introduced to a special field of industrial activity which has not hitherto had any serious competition. The history and development of useful and decorative arts in America forms a subject to which the Museum has given great attention, and some of the most representative collections of American useful and decorative art can be found on exhibition, and it is gratifying to note that its position is acknowledged as a foremost one among the museums of the world. One year ago the annual membership recorded was 257; to-day the membership is 280, sixty new members having been added during the year, thirteen having been lost by resignation and death.

This increase, while encouraging, does not at all measure up to the possibility of a large city like Philadelphia. The members of such an organization are its encouragement, its strength and its sup- port, and all friends of the institution, it is hoped, will lend their aid to increasing the membership largely during the coming year. The Schools' registration by classes shows a slight increase in number over 190S, while the individual registration shows a slight decrease. The Textile Classes show a falling off of nearly 20%, which is attributed to the financial condition of the textile in- dustry during the last year. With better times now in sight this department may be expected to increase. On the other hand, the Art Department shows an increase of nearly 8% in numbers over that of last year. The tuition fees being higher in the Textile School than in the Art School, our finances have been affected unfavorably by the lack of attendance on the part of the students for the Textile School. The receipts from tuition in 1907 were $22,632.25, as against $20,860.50 for this year. In addition to this not inconsiderable loss, we are now compelled to face a further :

11 diminution in our income of $10,000 per year from the City and

$10,000 per year from the State; to meet this great financial reduc- tion will tax our resources to the utmost. It seems now almost absolutely necessary for us to enter upon some course of procedure for liquidating the debt of the institution. This, if accomplished, would relieve us of the interest charge which now bears so heavily against us. This charge in itself about equals the loss sustained to our income from the sources above mentioned. There seems no other course open to the management, except a serious curtailment of the usefulness of the Schools and Museum. It has been the hope of the Board of Trustees to dispose of the property at Broad and Pine Streets and enter upon the improvement of the property at Broad Street and Allegheny Avenue. Up to this time, however, no proper opportunity has offered itself, that, in the judgment of the Board, could be accepted, and there is always the possibility that the property may remain unsold for a further considerable period. In view of this, it was the judgment of your Board that it would be advisable to place the property at Broad Street and Allegheny Avenue under the care of the City, loaning it as a pla3'ground; the City to improve it for such purpose, and to give it the proper police protection, so as to care for our interests in that locality. This has now been done, the property has been properly en- closed by the City and sufficiently policed, and as it now stands it is an improvement to that locality. Whenever it is desirable for this organization to improve the site, the property will revert to us at once.

It is pleasing to note that the Alumni Associations of the Art

School and Textile School still continue their activity and have contributed during the year to the strength of our organization and to the pleasure and profit of the membership. The young members representing the Alumni Associations now upon the Board of Trus- tees are active and earnest in their work, and give a service that could not easily be dispensed with.

During the year your Board deemed it wise to negotiate for a new mortgage on Broad and Pine Streets property for an amount necessary to cover all the obligations of the Corporation, viz.,—The old first mortgage, which matured in May, and the second and third mortgages, which had been placed from time to time to meet our necessities. A mortgage of $500,000 was negotiated, and all the old obligations were cancelled, the balance remaining being invested as a Reserve Capital Fund. Respectfully submitted,

THEODORE C. SEARCH,

President. PENNSYLVANIA. MUSEUM, MEMORIAL HALL, FAIRMOUNT PARK, PHILADELPHIA REPORT OF THE DIRECTOR

In presenting his Annual Report for the year ending May 31, 1909, the Director of the Museum takes this opportunity to ex- press the gratification which must be experienced by all museum directors at the increasing evidences of the development of a broader and more liberal policy, whereby inter-institutional relations are being established between the various museums of this country.

Each public museum is but a unit in the system of museum instruction, which is destined to become a most important factor in the education and uplifting of the people. No single institution can hope to accomplish the best results alone, but by general co- operation the influence of each museum is vastly increased. During the past year the Pennsylvania Museum has received valuable aid from other museums, which have recently shown a marked willingness to furnish assistance to sister institutions. This awakening from a lethargic condition, which has already resulted in the fostering of reciprocal courtesies, has been largely brought about by the general establishment of Museum Bulletins, in which our own Museum was the pioneer, which have extended the influence of their respective institutions beyond the narrow confines of their immediate communities. By means of these periodical publications the museums have been brought into close touch with each other and with their various constituencies. These Bulletins have prepared the way for a general interchange of services and expert information between American Museums, and the diffusion of good art among the people at large. 14 BUREAU OF INFORMATION

The public naturally looks to its museums to furnish authoritative information on those subjects which their collections are intended to illustrate. The Bureau of Identification, established by this Museum several years ago, is now liberally patronized by col- lectors and truth seekers, and also by many other museums. Ap- plications for information are received almost daily from different sections of the country. A unique feature in museum educational methods is the formation of a collection of forgeries and reproductions, which is accessible to the public for purposes of study and comparison. It was recently stated by a French newspaper that the sale of spurious Sevres porcelain alone nets the counterfeiters in Paris 16,000,000 francs each year, and yields the retail dealers in Europe and America the enormous sum of 48,000,000 francs, or $9,600,000 annually. Recently several European manufacturers of imitation antiquities have been sending their salesmen to this country to furnish dealers with counterfeit wares. Almost every American tourist who returns from abroad brings home some of these worthless fabrications, many of which, sooner or later, find their way into public museums, and forgeries abound in furniture, glassware, textiles, classical antiquities, metalwork and other articles.

It is the policy of this Museum to render every assistance possible, in the detection of fraudulent reproductions, to those who contemplate a trip abroad, in order to fortify them against imposition. A cordial invitation is extended to all such persons to visit the Museum and inspect this collection of modern forgeries, which will be found in the office of the Director.

WORK ACCOMPLISHED

An additional appropriation of $2,500 was obtained this year from City Councils for the completion of the large apartment in the basement, directly beneath the South Vestibule, at the main entrance, which is now finished and is ready for the Baird model of the Centennial Exhibition buildings and the Pompeian views, which will be installed there at an early day. This newly prepared room adds 4600 square feet of floor space. A stone stairway has

15 been built in the southeastern corner of the main floor, leading below. By the removal of the model from the East Arcade, much additional space will be secured there for the better installation of the furniture collections. Facing the main entrance, in the South Vestibule, the Chinese pagoda cases, from the Centennial Exhibition, have been placed, in which have been installed the collections of Oriental wood carvings, small Japanese shrines, idols and models of Chinese and East

Indian buildings and vehicles. This part of the building is now occupied exclusively by objects and collections illustrating the arts of the Orient. The Japanese shrine, which was some time ago removed to Memorial Hall for safekeeping, from the Temple Gate, recently presented to Fairmount Park by Mr. John H. Converse and Mr. Samuel M. Vauclain, has been rearranged and greatly improved by the addition of a background of neutral gray tint, and

the elevation of the central platform. This shrine, with its at- tendant figures, antique carvings and temple paraphernalia, now forms one of the most interesting exhibits in the Museum. Through the courtesy of the Tiffany Studios, of New York, the collections of furniture have been examined by their expert, Mr. Patrick Stevens, who enjoys the reputation of being one of the best judges of old furniture in this country. Through his valuable assistance and advice the objects have been entirely reclassified and relabeled. The eases throughout the Museum have been thoroughly over- hauled and reebonized, and the larger architectural casts have been cleaned and retouched. Over the entrances to several of the rooms and over some of the cases containing special collections, signs have been painted in gold lettering. The new classification of the collections of pottery, porcelain, enamels and glass has been completed, and these departments of the Museum exhibits may now be seen to the best advantage in the East Gallery. The Hammersly collection of menukis, kashiras, fuchis, tsubas and other sword furniture has been remounted on gray cards,

and has thereby been greatly improved. This exhibit is now one

of the most complete of its kind in this coimtry. In the Textile Eoom (West Arcade) the collection of old 16 samplers has been reframed in black wood and entirely reinstalled. The collection has been considerably augmented, and now forms one of the most attractive exhibits in this department. The collections of Egyptian and Classical antiquities have been systematically rearranged in the Southwest Pavilion, under the direction of Mrs. Cornelius Stevenson. These collections, as now classified, possess a distinct educational value, viewed either from an historical or an artistic standpoint. They include many important examples of the best periods, the groups of pottery and bronzes being especially representative. The cases in this room have been completely renovated and relined. The collections of Chinese and Japanese Ceramics have been thoroughly reclassified and relabled. These collections, which are remarkably comprehensive, have now acquired an additional value by the weeding out of much unimportant material. Many examples of great rarity have been given prominent positions in the cases, including a fine "peach blow" vase, in the Bloomfield Moore collection, remarkable for its size and excellent color, and numerous good examples of the Ming Dynasty and the K'ang-hsi and following periods.

NEW CASES

During the past year more new exhibition cases have been secured than in any other year in the history of the Museum. Thirty- three cases, of the best materials and most approved patterns, have been installed in the building. In the East Gallery the unsightly walnut eases from the Centennial Exhibition have been retired, to the great improvement of the appearance of the exhibits and the lighting of the room.

PUBLICATIONS

On January 1, 1909, the Museum Bulletin entered on its seventh year as a quarterly publication. The purposes of this periodical have been to keep the members of the Corporation informed in regard to the progress of Museum activities, to familiarize the public with the collections of the Museum, to announce the accessions received from time to time, and to record the results of orig- 17 inal research undertaken by members of the staff in various fields of art. Through the Bulletin other museums in this country and abroad have been brought into closer touch with the work being accomplished both in the Museum and the School. As has been previously announced, four of the series of twelve Art Primers, which will cover the entire subject of Ceramics, have already appeared. These have been republished in popular form by special arrangement with the firm of Doubleday, Page & Company, of New York, as reference works on the special subjects treated. In addition to the Ceramic Series, other monographs are being prepared on Glass, Enamels, Oriental Carpets and other subjects. Several have been completed and are awaiting publication. During the past year an Art Handbook on "The Maiolica of Mexico" has been issued, based on the unique collection recently acquired by the Museum. This work, the first on this subject to appear, has met with a gratifying sale, not only in this country, but in Europe and Mexico as well. Handbooks of this character, which treat in a general way of the subjects under consideration, and illustrate the best examples in the Museum collections, reach a larger circle of readers than do mere catalogues, or lists of objects, which latter, being merely compilations of the labels in the cases, convey but little information to those who do not visit the Museum, and are of small help to those who enjoy the opportunity of studying the objects themselves. A complete list of the Museum publications has been issued, which will be sent to any address, free of charge, on application to the Librarian. RECEPTION

The American Association of Museums held its annual conven- tion in Philadelphia from May 11th to May 14th. Kepresentatives of nearly all the art and scientific museums in this country were in attendance. The visiting delegates were entertained by the various museums and public institutions of the City, and a lunch- eon was given on the former date by the Pennsylvania Museum in the newly-opened basement room in Memorial Hall, under the auspices of the Board of Trustees and the Associate Committee of Women. An address of welcome was delivered by President Search, 18

and former Justice Samuel Gustine Thompson, of the Park Com- mission, made some appropriate remarks. After the collation, the members of the Association devoted some time to the inspection of the exhibits, before starting on an automobile tour through the Park. BEQUESTS

Through the will of the late Miss Elizabeth Gratz, who was an annual member of the Corporation, the Museum has come into possession of a beautiful mahogany sideboard, elaborately carved and inlaid with brass designs, having polished brass columns and repousse brass knobs, of the French Empire style, dating from

about 1805. The sideboard is surmounted by two handsome knife boxes of similar design and ornamentation. Miss Mary Lewis, who died in January last, a life member of the Corporation, has bequeathed to the Museum a valuable and important collection of Oriental cloisonne enamels, dating from the fifteenth century (Ming Dynasty) to the end of the eighteenth. The bequest also includes some rare pieces of Chinese porcelain; a large brass church plaque of Norwegian workmanship, bearing the date 1620; two antique carved chests; a series of European and Oriental bronzes; seven panels of Swiss stained glass, of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, which are added to the valuable collection of similar glass previously presented by Miss Lewis, and the sum of $1000 for the purchase of exhibition cases. With these

additions it is believed that the Museum collections of enamels and stained glass are now among the most comprehensive of their kind in this country. The enamels occupy seven cases, three of which are in the East Gallery, and four nearby, in the Bloomfield Moore room. PEESSING NEEDS OF THE MUSEUM

The most pressing need of the Museum at present is an addi-

tional fund for the extension of its valuable collections. With the annual income from the Joseph E. Temple Trust many of the most important collections and objects in the Museum have been purchased, and each year the name of this generous patron appears

on an ever-increasing number of labels. Such a bequest is a per- )

DOVE-SHAPED WINE VESSEL ON WHEELS (CHIU CH'E TSUN CLOISONNE ENAMEL CHINESE, CH'IEN-LUNG PERIOD, 1736-1795 AFTER AN OLD FORM OF THE HAN DYNASTY (202 B.C-220 A.D.) BEQUEST OF MISS MARY LEWIS

ennial benefaction which perpetuates for all time the memory of the donor among his fellow-citizens.

The income derived from the Temple bequest, however, is far from sufficient to permit the Trustees to take advantage of the op- portunities constantly presented for the acquirement of the more desirable objects offered for sale. Public museums in other cities are, as a rule, far more liberally endowed, and are thus enabled to secure many of the important objects which should come to Phila-

delphia. A larger fund for purchases is needed to enable this Museum to keep abreast with the museum development of other communities. Public-spirited citizens are, therefore, urged to give to this sug- gestion the serious consideration which it merits.

The Museum is also greatly in need of funds for purchasing books for the library. The Museum force is often greatly hampered in its work by the want of standard and authoritative works on

different branches of art, and it frequently becomes necessary to apply to other museums and libraries at a distance for the books which are needed for reference.

Money is also necessary for the publication of catalogues and handbooks. Heretofore funds have been raised for this purpose from a few friends of the Museum, but it is felt that the continu- ance of this practise would be an imposition on the generosity of these patrons. Several important monographs which have been prepared are now awaiting publication, and there is no available

fund that can be used to pay the cost of printing. It is largely through these special publications that the Museum has been enabled to reach its present recognized position among the progres- sive museums of this country and Europe. COLLECTIONS

It has been the policy of this Museum, while endeavoring to gather together worthy examples of man's handiwork from all sections of the globe, for the inspiration of artisans in every department of industrial activity, to cover a field not hitherto entered seriously by any other museum—the building up of collections illustrating the history and development of the useful and decorative arts in America. The Museum is now in possession of the 20 most representative collections of American glass and ceramics ever brought together. During the past year numerous additions have been made to the work of early American silversmiths, and it is intended to make this collection as complete as possible. In early American ironwork also an important nucleus for an instructive historical collection has been formed. Through these special collections, at the present time unique in museum exhibits, this Museum has alread}'' gained a foremost position among the museums of the world. Many important additions have been made during the past twelve months to the collection of furniture, which is now one of the principal attractions of the Museum. USE OF THE MUSEUM BY STUDENTS

The Museum has been used by a greater number of students from the Art Schools of the City than ever before. Large classes from the School of Industrial Art connected with the Museum, and the Philadelphia School of Design for Women, have spent many days at the Museum, and during the spring months it has not been un- usual to see as many as fifty pupils at one time copying from the art objects throughout the building. The most popular collections with the students have been the Classical Antiquities, the Ceramics and the Textiles, particularly the Oriental Carpets, although all departments of the Museum have been used more or less. During the winter and early spring months, Mrs. Stevenson's class in the Course for Curators met weekly in Memorial Hall, where instruction was given in practical museum work, in the re- pairing, treatment, cataloguing, registration and labeling of objects. The lecturer also accompanied the class to other museums in the city, where certain aspects of care-taking and installation were studied. THE EXTENSION OF THE MUSEUM'S INFLUENCE.

The use of the Museum collections has not, however, been con- fined to the students of this city. Many visitors from distant points have lately been making periodical journeys to Philadelphia for the purpose of studying material here which cannot be found in any other museum. During the past year specialists from New :

York, Hartford, Boston, Salem, Mass., St. Louis, and many other art centres, have visited the Museum repeatedly to inspect those collections in which they are especially interested. Through the Museum Bulletin and Handbooks some of these special collections have attained an almost world-wide publicity. The collection of ceramics, which is believed to be the most representative and comprehensive one in this country, has been used to illustrate the new edition of the Century Dictionary, which is now in press. The Museum has, therefore, by the extension of its influence, ceased to be a mere local institution. Almost every stranger who comes to Philadelphia visits Memorial Hall, as one of the principal attractions of the city. It would therefore seem to be the duty of our own citizens to lend their encouragement to the management, to the extent of acquainting themselves, by frequent visits, with the work which is being accomplished here. SPECIAL MUSEUM FUNDS

During the fiscal year ending May 31, 1909, subscriptions were received for the purchase of objects of art for the Museum collections as follows

Charles E. Dana $10 Miss Kate S. Gillespie $5 Samuel P. Avery 25 Mrs. Lewis Rodman 10 Mrs. S. P. Wetherill 20 Mrs. J. Lowber Welsh 25 Edward I. H. Howell 10 John Story Jenks 100 Schofield, Mason & Co 5 Mrs. John Harrison 25 *Miss Mary Lewis 25 *John Harrison 25 C. M. Clark 100 Mrs. Evan Randolph 25 Miss M. L. Corlies 5 Mrs. Thomas McKean 50 Miss E. C. Roberts 100 Mrs. Alan Wood, Jr 100 Miss F. A. Roberts 100 Mrs. Wm. A. Dick 10 Charles Norris 50 $825

Numerous purchases were made from this fund, among which may be especially mentioned two elaborately inlaid wheel-lock ar- quebuses and two pistols of the seventeenth century ; unique pieces of Persian and Syrian pottery of the same period; an important group of old English salt glaze ware; Pennsylvania-German decorated iron stove plates of the eighteenth century, rare pieces of

Since deceased. 22 early pewter and numerous examples of pottery, porcelain and musical instruments. Two important purchases were made during the year with the accumulated funds from the Museum contribution boxes. One of these is an Elizabethan cabinet of carved oak, dating from about 1600, the other an elaborately carved oak cupboard, or dresser, bearing the date 1700. The cost of the former was $360. The price of the latter was $575. These rare examples of old English furniture are probably the only ones of their kind in this country (see illustrations). ATTENDANCE

The total number of visitors to the Museum during the twelve months ending May 31, 1909, was 297,045, of which about 60 per cent., or 176,676, came on Sunday afternoons. MEMBERSHIP

The number of new members added during the year was 60, of which 47 are Annual Members, contributing $10 per annum, and 13 are Life Members, contributing $100 each. The number of An- nual Members who paid their dues during the year was 280, the largest membership in the history of the Corporation. The loss by resignation and death was 13. ACCESSIONS

Since the beginning of the fiscal year, June 1, 1908, the accessions to the collections by gift, purchase and loan numbered 1047.

The principal of these were as follows : Group of old English pottery and salt glazed stoneware ; collection of Chinese and Japanese cloisonne enamels; a series of stained glass panels of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries ; collection of Mexican maiolica tiles of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries; numerous important pieces of antique furniture; fine examples of old Persian pottery; a collection of Oriental porcelains ; many early specimens of Ameri- can silverwork; and a group of rare Oriental carpets, of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, added to the J.

REPORT OF THE PRINCIPAL

Presented at the Close of the Thirty-second School Year

The registration for the year just closing amounts to 1046, showing a slight increase over that of the preceding year, in spite of a continuation of the falling off in the Textile School, which was noted a year ago. The increase this year in the registration in the

School of Applied Art is ahout 9 per cent. Twenty-nine states and eight foreign countries are represented in our enrolment, but 81 per cent, are residents of Pennsylvania. Of the total registration about 45 per cent, are women, the pro- portion being largest in the Day Class of the Art School, where they outnumber the men nearly three to one. This preponderance of women, while it is probably about the same as in the art schools of the country generally, is especially noticeable in our Normal Course, where, out of a registration of 109, only seven were men.

The demand for men teachers of Industrial Art is already very great, and is sure to be materially increased as the movement to extend vocational teaching as a feature of general education is de- veloped. It is, therefore, very much to be hoped that the number of young men of ability attracted to this important branch of our work mav be eonsiderablv increased in the near future. 34

The reorganization of the courses in the Art School that was noted in my last report has worked very well, and has resulted in a more symmetrical development of the different classes, by fixing equal standards and extending equal recognition in all five of the full courses now offered in this department. The number of graduates who this year complete these courses (all of which require an

attendance of four years) is twenty-five, much the largest class that the School has ever graduated. The Course for Curators under

Mrs. Stevenson, which was opened last fall, has been attended

mainly by pupils of the Normal Course, it has, however, attracted very favorable notice as being in line with the best current thought regarding the work of museums and the extension of their influence. The progress in the Textile School has also been very gratifying, notwithstanding the fact that a certain diminution in attendance has been noted. The material of the classes has been excellent, and the amount of work accomplished will compare very favorably with that of former years. In the matter of equipment the department is somewhat handicapped by want of room. Some very valuable of- ferings of machinery have been made, but their acceptance has had to be postponed on this account. In two directions especially in which assistance of this kind has been offered could the work of the department be readily extended, namely, in silk and in lace curtain manufacture, both of which are not only thriving and rapidly growl-

ing industries in which Pennsylvania is a recognized leader, huf they are so suggestive of artistic associations as to make "their; intro^ duction here most fitting and desirable. The introduction of enough electric current from outside to run a part of the machinery has to a certain extent relieved the pressure on our inadequate and much over-worked heat and power plant. The increased efficiency

is a welcome addition to our resources, and while the expense is also increased, the experiment has apparently shown that an extension of the method far enough to make it a complete substitute for steam for power purposes would probably be in the interest of economy as well as of efficiency. The teaching staff remains about the same. In the Art School, Mrs. Sweeney has resigned as instructor in design applied to stained glass, her place being taken by Mr. Copeland. In the Textile School, Mr. H. D. Whitney resigned as instructor in dyeing, and rs. PS O «

Mr. Elmer C. Bertolet has been appointed in his place. Mr. Her- bert G. Coe, who had for several years been instructor in hand weaving, also resigned, and his place has been taken by Mr. William Pfeiffer. The department has further been strengthened by the appointment of Mr. George W. Fiss, Jr., as assistant in design and elementary weaving. A large exhibition of school work was made in connection with the International Congress for the Advancement of Drawing and Art Teaching which was held in London last summer, and exhibits have also been made during the year at Atlanta, Baltimore, Co- lumbia, S. C, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, Eichmond, and Spartans- burg, Va., as well as a continuous circuit of smaller exhibits that have been sent to towns in Pennsylvania and New Jersey where the teaching of drawing is under the direction of former students of this School. Excellent service in organization and defraying the expenses of these travelling exhibitions, as well as in conducting the employment agency which has been in operation since 1905, has been rendered by the Art School Alumni Association, while the corresponding Association in the Textile School has been equally active in continuing the lectures by manufacturers which have been noted in former reports, and in promoting by other means right and helpful relations between the student body and that section of the business world for which the work of the class-rooms is so direct a preparation. The spirit that has animated both these Associa- tions is admirable, and no single influence that could be cited promises more for the future of the School. A list of gifts and benefactions, which furnish gratifying evi-

dence of appreciation of our work, is appended. The following accessions to the Library of the School have been received for the year ending May 31, 1909.

THE REPORT OF THE ASSOCIATE COMMITTEE OF WOMEN

1908-1909

The Associate Committee desires to report that nine stated meet- ings have been held during the season of 1908-1909. A very sad note was sounded when our President, Mrs. John

Harrison, found it necessary to resign her position as President of the Committee, but our able Vice-President mothered us for several months, and finally Mrs. Harrison was persuaded to resume her duties as President. The Annual Meeting was held in January, at which time the Treasurer made an exhaustive report, which will be given in full. The former officers were re-elected, and but few changes were made in the Committee. The sub-committees have done good work in special directions. The Scholarship Committee reports a satisfactory year, and that all scholarships have been filled. One student, a young Indian girl, graduated with marked distinction after a full course of four years. The Elizabeth Duane Gillespie Scholarships have been shared by sixteen students, seven of whom could only take half scholarships, as they were able to attend only the evening sessions. The Frank Hamilton Magee, Rynear Williams and Annie E. Sinnott Scholar- ships were also filled. The nineteen Students' Scholarships were distributed as follows Art Class (2), Illustration (5), Interior Decoration (2), Draw- ing (2), Design1 (1), Architecture (1), Normal (1). The members of the Students' Club Committee desire to mark their deep appreciation of the kindness and courtesy of the New England Society in their gift of $100 to a female student of New England parentage in the School, who should be in need of financial help. It is pleasant to note that the young girl who benefited by this gift has accomplished fine work this season. This winter brought a great disappointment to the members of the Students' League House Committee. They had expected to 55

open on January first a Boarding Home for female students, but they were unable to secure a suitable house, and have it ready for occupancy at that date, but they now expect to open the Boarding Home by the 15th of September. The students seem enthusi- astic over the prospect of having such a Home, in which they wish to take an active, helpful interest. The furniture for ten rooms has been promised, and the Committee would be glad to receive further contributions of furniture. The work done in Pottery has been excellent, and has far ex- ceeded that in other years. The success of the cement work has been remarkable. It is to be hoped that many persons have been able to visit the miniature Italian Garden in the Pottery Eoom, ornamented as it was with various kinds of jars, vases and foun- tains suitable for outside decoration. The Artistic Furniture Committee are very proud of some beautiful pieces of furniture made this season. A very handsome settle has been completed, which is to be sent to the Capitol at Harris- burg. Besides the many prizes awarded by well wishers to pupils in the different departments of the work, sixteen have been given by different members of the Associate Committee of Women, and this point of personal contact is a very pleasant bond between the pupils and those who bestow the prizes. This Report is respectfully submitted. ALEXINA LAW DALLAM,
