REPORT OF THE PRESIDENT

To the Board of Trustees: (

I have the honor to present my report for the year closing June 30, 1928. The full history of the year can be learned only by consulting the reports of the other administrative officers, including those of the Deans, the Librarian, the Chairman of the Committee on Graduate Instruction, and of the Treasurer. There have been various changes in the Board of Trustees during the year under review. The most significant of these is the resignation of the Treasurer of the College, Mr. Lewis Kennedy Morse, in January, 1928. The value set by the trustees upon the service of Mr. Morse as Treasurer is indicated by the following resolution adopted by the Board at their

meeting on March 9 :

In accepting the resignation of the Treasurer of the College, Mr. Lewis Kennedy Morse, the trustees wish to place on record their deep appreciation of his service to the College. Mr. Morse was elected to the Board in November, 1912; he became Assistant Treasurer in May, 1913, and Treasurer January 1, 1914. During Mr. Morse's term as Treasurer, the College has undertaken three campaigns for funds: the million-dollar fund for salary endowment, begun in 1913 and merged after the fire of March, 1914, with the Restoration Fund, amounting with the insurance award to nearly three million; the first phase of the Semi-Centennial Fund of $2,700,000, completed in June, 1921; and the later phase of the Semi-Centennial Fund still in progress, amounting on

January 1, 1928, to $4,553,260. At the close of the fiscal year 1912-13, the Trust Funds of the College amounted to $1,364,677; on June 30, 1927, the Treasurer's Report shows the Trust Funds to be $8,520,418, of which $5,866,874 is permanent endowment. With the assistance of the Finance Committee, the Treasurer has had the handling and investing of these funds. How ably Mr. Morse has accomplished his task is shown by the statement of the auditors that on December 31, 1927, the market value of the securities held by the College exceeded the book value by approxi- mately $1,500,000. This alone is a brilliant achievement; but the Wellesley tie of his daughter and her mother, his personal loyalty to both Professor and Mrs. Palmer, all combined to inspire in him a desire to give to the 5 Wellesley College

College a service beyond the routine duties of his ofi&ce as Treasurer. Mr. Morse has laid a foundation for all time upon which his successors may confidently build. The trustees gratefully congratulate Mr. Morse on this splendid record of fifteen years and extend to him and to Mrs. Morse all good wishes for the future.

At the January meeting, when Mr. Morse's resignation was presented, the trustees referred it to the Finance Committee with instructions to bring a report before the end of the year as to a successor. After careful consideration, the Finance Committee presented at the March meeting the name of James Dean as Treasurer of the College to succeed Mr. Morse. Mr. Dean was unanimously elected. The Finance Committee also recommended that Mr. Morse be continued as a member of the Board to serve out Mr. Dean's unexpired term. This recom- mendation was also adopted unanimously by the Board. Mr. Morse was away when this vote was taken, and when informed of the action of the Board declined to serve, on the ground that he proposed to remove to New York and wished to be relieved of all responsibility. The trustees are to be congratulated on securing Mr. Dean's acceptance of the important ofi&ce of treasurer. Mrs. Alice Upton Pearmain resigned from the Board in May because of ill health. Mrs. Pearmain had been abroad the greater part of the year and felt that her place should be taken by someone able to give more time to the problems of the College. Mrs. Pearmain was elected to the Board in March, 1918. Both before and during her ten years of membership on the Board, she gave loyally of time and thought to college problems. Her service to the College was recorded in the following minute incorporated in the minutes of the meeting of May 11:

In accepting the resignation of Alice Upton Pearmain, the trustees of Wellesley College wish to place on record their deep appreciation of the service she has rendered throughout the ten years of her term of office. Keenly interested in all building projects, Mrs. Pearmain gave service on the Building Committee of special value. It was due to her first sug- gestion that the fifth floor of Tower Court was altered, providing additional rooms for twelve students. As a member of the committee in charge of the 6 PREsroENx's Report

erection of Alumna^ Hall she gave, without stint, time and thought to make that building adequately serve its purpose. The alterations and furnishings of the Club House at 131 Commonwealth Avenue were almost exclusively her work. The trustees do not forget that before her election to the Board Mrs. Pearmain had made significant contributions to the College through the Alumnae Association. Conspicuous among these contributions was her large share in raising the debt of $109,000 in 1900. Her service through- out has been as expert as tireless. The trustees gratefully record Mrs. Pearmain's farseeing loyalty to her Alma Mater.

Miss Grace G. Crocker's term as alumna trustee expired in June, 1928. By vote of the Alumnae Association, alumnae are not immediately eligible for re-election. The trustees, recognizing the value of Miss Crocker's work, especially in connection with the Semi-Centennial Fund, elected her in May to another term of six years. Mrs. Helen Knowles Bonnell, B.A. 1907, was nominated by the Alumnae Association to succeed Miss Crocker as alumna trustee and was unanimously elected at the May meeting for a term of six years. The terms of Mr. Davenport and Mr. Ogden expiring in June, they were unanimously re-elected for another term of six years. At this same May meeting Lieutenant-Governor Frank G. Allen was elected to fill the vacant term closing in 1932, and Mr. John W. Farwell at the same time to fill the vacant term closing in 1930. Mr. Clifton Dwinnell died on March 13, 1928, four days after the March meeting. Mr. Dwinnell was elected a trustee in September, 1925. He was immediately made a member of the Finance Committee, where his expert knowledge of finance was of great value. Seldom has a trustee in so short time made such a significant contribution to the College. The College shares with the business world the loss of a man of great business sagacity and high integrity. Mrs. Elizabeth Parker Hunt, Associate Professor of Reading and Speaking, died on March 22, 1928, after an illness of four months. Mrs. Hunt came to Wellesley in 1920 as Assistant Professor of Reading and Speaking. She was promoted to an associate professorship in 1926. On the retirement of Professor Bennett in 1923 she was made Chairman of the Department, a position she held at the time of her death. The resolution 7 Wellesley College adopted by her colleagues of the Academic Council follows:

As members of the Academic Council and the Official Staff of Wellesley College, we desire to place on record our sorrow and our sense of loss at the death, in the fuUness of her powers, of Mrs. Elizabeth Parker Hunt, Associate Professor of Reading and Speaking. Mrs. Hunt received the baccalaureate degree from the University of Iowa, the Master's degree from the University of Wisconsin, and her pro- fessional training from various institutions, especially the Curry School of Expression in Boston. Coming to Wellesley in 1920, from a position at the University of Iowa, she was shortly afterward, at the retirement of Professor Malvina Bennett, elected Chairman of the Department. She won immediately the respect and affection of her colleagues and her students. Her staff foimd in her a leader who was considerate of others, unsparing of herself, bringing to her position not only the highest standards of profes- sional attainment, the thoroughness and proficiency which were to be looked for in one chosen to fill such a position, but also a buoyancy of spirit, a zest and a gentle humor, a dignity and fine courtesy, which enhanced for her students the value of the formal lessons she taught. Especially in her direction of dramatic performances were these qualities important. Those working under her guidance were the richer for life by their friendly association with a woman of ripe culture, penetrating insight, poise, sweet temper, and quiet strength. She seemed to feel that the creation of beautiful and appropriate dramatic presentation was a trust to be carried out with high imagination, with ardor and enthusiasm, but always with dignity and serenity. The care for detail, the fine restraint, the fresh and individual conceptions, the sense of values which marked her direction of plays, were of incalculable importance in forming standards of taste in the actors, and a source of intelligent pleasure to the audiences. The qualities which gave value to her professional work appeared also in her many services on committees, and in the community generally. In the college household she made herself responsible for the happiness of those who found adjustment to college life difficult—the foreign student, the student who was in some way hampered or distressed. She gave her time and her beautiful reading freely for the benefit of others. Besides the power of beautiful speech she had notably the yet rarer power of intelligent lis- tening. Her friends found in her a rare combination of steadiness of purpose, courage, and sweet reasonableness. Though her years at Wellesley were all too brief, she has left in those who knew her a feeling of permanent enrich- ment from association mth that strength of character and beauty of spirit, sanity and humor, lightness of touch and unswerving loyalty to duty, which were combined in the rare humanity of Elizabeth Parker Hunt. To her daughter, and the other members of her family, we send our assurance of sympathy for the loss we share with them.

It should be noted here that Mr. Howard Hinners, Associate 8 President's Report

Professor of Music in 1926-27, was appointed Organist and Choir Director to succeed Mr. Macdougall, retired. Unfortu- nately, Mr. Hinners was unable to return because of illness, and was given leave of absence for the year. His withdrawal came late, and the College was fortunate in securing Mr. Randall Thompson, B.A. Harvard, winner of the Prix de Rome, to take his place. Mr. Thompson quickly won a place for himself among his colleagues and with the choir. A full report of other changes in the faculty for the year under review will be found in the appendix to this report. The discussion on the subject of taxation of college property which began in 1925 was finally brought to a successful con- clusion in the passing of an act by the General Court in February, 1928, by which all the property given to the College by the founders and the small parcel of land purchased from the Boston and Albany Railroad for a power-house site are exempt from taxation "when occupied by said College for the purpose set forth in its charter." The full text of the act will be found

in the appendix to this report. An amendment to the by-laws has been proposed to change Commencement from Tuesday to Monday. It was finally voted that this change be tried in 1929 and if it prove satisfac- tory the proposed amendment would come up for final vote. More than two years ago the heads of seven colleges for women—Barnard, Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Radcliffe, Smith, Vassar, and Wellesley—began a series of conferences on the possibility of securing adequate endowment for women's higher education. After consultations with representatives of various educational foundations and others connected with the raising of educational funds, an informal organization was established. One of the results was an article published in the November number of The Atlantic Monthly signed by the heads of these seven colleges. This article received wide publicity. In May another article similarly signed appeared in the Sunday issue of The New York Times. A publicity committee has been formed, consisting of seven alumnae representative of these same seven colleges, with headquarters in New York. It will be the business of this committee to secure satisfactory publicity for 9 Wellesley College the needs of these institutions for women. Immediate results are not expected, but it is hoped that ultimately the interest of public-spirited men and women may be secured, resulting in substantial gifts to these women's colleges. This co-operative effort is unique and ought to attract the attention of the public. During the year under review, the new charges for tuition and residence apply to the two younger classes. In accordance with the plan adopted when these increased rates were author- ized, the trustees have set aside for each of these classes a sub- stantial sum for scholarship aid. To provide for the increase in applications for places in the co-operative house, the trustees accepted the recommendation of the President that a second campus house should be made co-operative. During 1927-28, therefore. Wood House as well as Freeman House has been used in this way. These two houses accommodate ninety-six stu- dents who earn a part of their board. The charge for residence in these houses is $300 a year instead of $600 as in the other halls of residence. The plan has proved successful. The trustees should look forward to building a hall or halls of resi- dence especially for these students, for these frame houses must ultimately be superseded as the academic centre on Norumbega Hill is completed. Moreover, these frame houses have been in use some forty years and require costly repairs every year. There is always criticism that college plants are not in use the full twelve months. It is of interest, therefore, to mention that the Conference for Church Work of the Episcopal Church has met at Wellesley every summer beginning in 1919. This conference lasts some ten days. In the summer of 1927 there was a Sports Session directly after Commencement which brought directors of physical education from points as distant as the Pacific Coast. As soon as these two sessions closed, the summer session of the Page Kindergarten began, lasting six weeks, and at the same time the Dingley-Mathews Music School held a summer term on campus. The Wellesley campus is, therefore, a busy place even in summer. Incidentally the students in attendance at these various schools greatly enjoy the college plant and furnish very deHghtful publicity for the College. 10 President's Report

The most important academic event of the year was the formal dedication of the Botany Laboratory on November 4, 1927. The exercises consisted of inspection of the buildings and greenhouses, followed by luncheon at Tower Court. At 2.30 in the Botany Lecture Room, brief addresses on various aspects of botanical science were given by the following: Profes- sors Edward C. Jeffrey and Edward Murray East of Harvard University, Dr. Benjamin White, Director of the Massachusetts State Anti-Toxin Laboratory, Professor George Elwood Nichols of Yale University, and Professor Karl M. Wiegand of Cornell University. A dinner in Alumnae Hall was given for the speakers and visiting scientists from many institutions, followed by formal addresses by Professor W. W. Lepeschkin, Dean of the Russian People's University in Prague, Visiting Professor at Washington University in St, Louis, and Dr. C. Stuart Gager, Director of the Brooklyn Botanical Garden. The scientists present paid glowing tributes to the laboratory, emphasizing especially the completeness of the equipment. It was very gratifying to hear so many comment on the fact that the maxi- mum expenditure had been spent on equipment and the mini- mum on the building. The College may well congratulate itself on having a modern and completely equipped laboratory. This addition to the plant makes even more urgent the need for similarly equipped laboratories in zoology, chemistry, and physics. The difficulty which members of our faculty find in securing adequate living quarters still continues. A conference on the subject was held at Horton House between a committee of the trustees and one of the faculty. This resulted in the recom- mendation to the trustees that Mrs. Eliza Newkirk Rogers, Lecturer in the History of Architecture and architect of Horton and Hallowell, be asked to make preliminary plans for a faculty apartment house. Later it was decided that this house, if built, should be on the campus, and a site in the orchard on the road leading to the East Lodge was finally agreed upon. It is hoped these plans may be perfected early in the fall and authori- zation to build given in time for the house to be ready for occupancy in September, 1929. 11 Wellesley College

The contracts for Stone-Davis Halls on the site of Stone Hall were signed in August, 1927, and the building was promised by September 1, 1928. It is clear at this writing that the halls will not be ready before Christmas. In June, 1926, the trustees voted two graduate scholarships of $750 each for students who had majored in French and wished to continue that study in France. Two graduates of the Class of 1926 enjoyed these scholarships during the year 1926-27. In the spring the trustees voted to continue these scholarships for members of the senior class, not limiting them to any one department. They were assigned by the Academic Council to Miriam Dice, a student for honors in chemistry and mathe- matics, and to Rosamond Lane who took honors in art. Miss Dice has used her scholarship at the University of California. She made such a success of her study that she has been given a teaching fellowship by that institution for the year 1928-29, an unusual distinction in this department for a woman. Miss Lane has studied at Radcliffe during this year and has won a Carnegie fellowship vvrhich she intends to use at New York University next year. It is evident that these two young women have been worthy of these awards. The trustees renewed the offer of these scholarships to members of the Class of 1928. They were assigned to Muriel Murray who intends to do research work in psychology at Columbia University, and to Louise Fowler who hopes to start work toward her Doctor's degree at Radcliffe in the field of economic history. The eagerness with which these scholarships have been received suggests the need of additional gifts or appropriations for this purpose. One of the evidences of the esteem in which the College is held is the number of bequests received during the year under review. Mrs. Ida Parker Hill, a former member of the official staff, left $20,000; Miss Clara Potwin of the Class of 1884 nearly $5,000; Mrs. Ahna Wright Stone, $25,000. All these were former members of the College. There has also been received $5,000 from Mr. Robert Gardner McClung, who has never had any previous connection with Wellesley. Under the direction of Miss Crocker the Semi-Centennial 12 President's Report

Fund continues to grow, though not so fast as one could wish. Among the additions to this Fund are two which have a special Wellesley interest. A fund amounting on June 30 to $5,500 has been given by former students in honor of Emilie Jones Barker, Resident Physician for nearly thirty years, the income to be used for a scholarship. A fund of $10,000 has been sub- scribed by the friends and former students of Elizabeth F. Fisher, Instructor, Associate Professor, and Professor of Geology for more than thirty years. This fund is to bear Miss Fisher's name and it is provided that she is to have the income during her life. Ultimately it will be used for the endowment of the Department of Geology. Other gifts to the Semi-Centennial Fund include $25,000 from Mr. Julius Rosenwald, conditioned upon the raising of an equal amount from Chicago alumnae. The undergraduates have become much interested in securing money for a swimming pool, and by June 30 the sum raised by them amounted to $14,475. Enthusiasm was greatly stimulated by the promise of the last $50,000 by the honorary member of the Class of 1920. Every campaign for funds has received hearty support from the former students of the College. Alumnae have from the very beginning been exceedingly generous to their Alma Mater. Notable among their gifts is Alumnae Hall. Last year the Alumnae Association voted to establish an Alumnae Fund. It was voted that this fund should be assigned for this first year to the proposed Zoology Laboratory, allowing classes having reunions to allocate their gifts to other special purposes if they so voted. In addition to meeting the budget of the Alumnae Association of some $18,000, the Alumnae Fund turned over to the Semi-Centennial Fund $35,249, of which $30,050 is for the Zoology Laboratory. Sixty-two per cent of the alumnae contributed to this fund, a truly remarkable achievement when it is remembered that alumnae have given generously to the Semi-Centennial in 1921 and again m 1925. Moreover, some have pledges still running on earlier gifts. The total amount of the Semi-Centennial Fund pledged or paid since February, 1921, amounted on June 30, 1928, to over seven million and a half dollars exclusive of the gift from the Alimmae Fund. 13 Wellesley College

In view of the substantial sum, it may perhaps seem ungracious to make a plan for more gifts. The fact remains that we are coming to the time when many of the ablest of our teaching force are nearing the retiring age and we must be prepared to offer greater inducements in order to iind competent teachers and scholars to fill their places. Our present salary scale should be greater in the case of those above the rank of instructor. This scale at present is:

Professors $3,500 to $5,000 Associate Professors 3,000 to 3,500 Assistant Professors 2,500 to 3,000

In order to compete with that of the other eastern women's colleges, the scale should be as follows:

Professors $4,000 to $6,000 Associate Professors 3,500 to 4,000 Assistant Professors 3,000 to 3,500

In order to accompUsh this, it would be necessary to add annually to the salary appropriation for the next three years a sum varying from $15,000 to $20,000. Moreover, we should at once make plans to offer to all members of our teaching staff above the rank of instructor sabbatical leave on half salary. At present this privilege is limited to but one full professor in each department. I cannot close this report without expressing again my apprecia- tion of the genuine co-operation and support given by the trustees and my colleagues in the administrative and teaching staff. This co-operation Ughtens the burdens and adds to the joys of the President's office^

14 REPORT OF THE DEAN OF THE COLLEGE

To the President of Welleslcy College:

I have the honor to submit the following report for the year closing July 1, 1928. During the academic year 1927-28, 277 courses were actually given by the various departments, aggregating 5823^^ hours per week, not including hours dupli- cated because of additional sections of the same course. These 277 courses include only one course given by the Department of Hygiene, namely the lecture course prescribed for freshmen. The distribution of these courses in the various departments will be given in the appendix. The following table shows the relative amount of instruction given by the various departments in the past five years. The unit of instruction used is the instruction of one student, one hour a week for one academic year.

The following table is based on tables like the preceding, and shows the relative size of the different departments of instruction for the last five years. The departments of Biblical History, Mathematics (until the year 1927-28), English Com- position, Philosophy (until the year 1927-28), and Reading and Speaking owe their places in the first ranks in part to the fact that they are prescribed subjects. 1923- 1924- 192&- 1926- 1927- 1924 1925 1926 1927 1928 Art 9 10 10 9 8 Astronomy 17 15 15 21 20 Biblical History 2 2 2 2 2 Botany 14 12 13 13 15 Chemistry 15 18 16 15 14 Economics 8 8 8 8 7 Education 12 14 14 15 16 English Composition 4 3 4 3 3 English Language 25 25 — — — English Literature 1 1 1 1 1 French 5 4 5 5 4 Geology 18 19 17 19 22 German 21 21 21 14 12 Greek 23 23 23 23 23 History 7 5 7 7 6 Hygiene 20 20 20 18 21 Italian 24 24 24 22 24 Latin 19 17 18 17 18 Mathematics 6 7 6 6 10 Musical Theory 13 9 11 12 13 Philosophy 3 6 3 4 6 Physics 22 22 22 20 19 Reading and Speaking 11 13 12 11 11 Spanish 16 16 19 16 17 Zoology 10 11 9 10 9 16 Report of the Dean of the College

In June, 1928, 298 students received the degree of Bachelor of Arts. This makes the total number of Bachelor's degrees conferred by the College 9,604. The academic requirement for this degree is the satisfactory completion of sixty hours of class work. For the completion of her work toward this degree every student must show that she has carried successfully nine hours in each of two departments, or twelve hours in one depart- ment and six in a second department, or twelve hours in one department and six in allied courses. The following table shows the number of students in the class of 1928 who in fulfillment of the above requirement completed nine or more hours in the various departments.

Of these 298 graduates, 19 won the rank of Durant Honor Scholars, and 45 the rank of Wellesley College Honor Scholars. In the year 1927-28, eleven seniors carried work for Honors in special subjects, as follows: one in Economics and History; three in Economics; two in Art and History; one each in Spanish and French, German, Latin, Italian, Chemistry and Physics. Of these seniors, one in Economics and History was awarded the scholarship of $750 from the trustees. The second award went to a senior of high standing though not studying for Honors in a special field. Another student working for Honors took the Woodrow Wilson Prize in Modern Politics. The professors directing the work of these Honors students are gratified by the enthusiasm and solid attainment which give a zest for scholarship leading on to graduate work and lasting satisfaction to the students, as well as distinct contributions to learning in some cases. Two juniors carried the plan through the year— 17 Wellesley College one in Economics and History, one in Educational Psychology— and have made a good beginning for the more concentrated work of the senior year. The general examination required of all seniors in their major subject was given for the first time May 28, 1928. The seven seniors who failed the test were four in Literature, two in History, and one in Economics. They will be given another of test in September so that, on passing it, they may rank as 1928. With the closer concentration advocated by the twenty- one-hour restricted elective of the new curriculum, which will in time lead to something akin to the concentration of our Honors students, the general examination may have stronger results. The students are responding to the new test and appreciating, even those who failed, that it is correlating their courses of the three- or four-year major, and bringing into their last year a fuller sense of what their course stands for. A by-product of the success of Honors and the unifying— study demanded in preparation for the general examination aided, Harvard and other too, by—the tutorial opportunities given by colleges is seen in the report of the Students' Committee on the Curriculum, which centered in the spring of 1928 in a request for specially directed work for the individual student, to be offered by departments and to receive academic credit. The question is to be brought before the Council for discussion. This body recognizes, as the students cannot, the heavy demands such offering would make on the staff of instructors, who are in general doing full work with their regular class appointments. If the instructing staff vote that the gain of such directed work is desirable, it would inevitably call for such an increase in their niunbers that they might hesitate to recommend the plan to the trustees. Six students spent their junior year in France under the direction of the University of Delaware with Miss Dorothy Dennis of the Wellesley College Department of French acting as Assistant Director of the group. The reports of these students from the professor in charge of the academic standing has been most favorable. For two years the Wellesley students in France have ranked among the best students of the colleges 18 Report of the Dean of the College

represented in the group, and are a credit to the teaching of the Wellesley Department of French. They return with warm appreciation of the rich opportunity afforded them in foreign study and foreign Hving and travel, and of the efficient manage- ment of their year in France. From the second year's trial it appears to be an advantageous experiment. This year a few traveling scholarships for the summer in Germany were offered through the Institute of International Education to recommended students from different colleges, and one was awarded to a Wellesley junior who is to take Honors in German for her senior year, 1928-29. With only one year's trial of the new curriculum which went into effect with the freshmen entering in September, 1927, it is too early to give definite conclusions as to its success. The most marked change w^as from the definite requirement of Mathematics in the freshman year, offering Philosophy and Psychology as an alternative to be taken in the second year; but of 417 entering freshmen, 144 chose Mathematics. We are watching wdth interest the results which will be shown later. The total number of students registered November, 1927, was 1,604, classified as follows:

Resident candidates for the M.A. degree 37 Resident candidates for the Certificate in Hygiene .... 19 Resident candidates for the M.S. degree 7 Candidates for the B.A. degree 1,533 Seniors 310 Juniors 391 Sophomores 383 Freshmen 425 Unclassified 24 Non-candidates for degrees 8

Total 1,604

Compared with the registration of November, 1926, the figures show a net gain of sixteen.

Of these 473 new students admitted in September, 1927, 32 applied for advanced standing. Thiese students came from the following institutions :

The academic standing of Wellesley College is high and its reputation is enviable, so that those who have once entered upon their course are determined to gain a degree from Wellesley, even though some of their instructors cannot regard them as academically fit. It becomes harder every year for the com- 21 Wellesley College mittee in charge of delinquent students to exclude those whose scholarship does not warrant their continuance. In maintain- ing our proud standing, and in carrying out the vote of the faculty who have carefully debated the question, we have held firmly to the principle of excluding weak students after a suffi- cient trial. This action accounts for the number of students who are dropped. Such exclusion adds to the credit of those who carry through the work for the degree satisfactorily and of those who carry it with distinction, who are, we believe, truly representative of Wellesley College,

Respectfully submitted,

Alice V. Waite,

Dean of the College.

22 REPORT OF THE DEAN OF FRESHMEN

To the President of Wellesley College:

I have the honor to submit a report of the freshman class for the year closing July 1, 1928. The class entering Wellesley College in September, 1927, numbered 427 students, of whom 10 were former students returning to Wellesley and 417 were new students. The distribution of these new students according to the character of the schools in which they received their preparation is as follows:

Preparation entirely in public school 128 Preparation entirely in private school 162

Preparation partly in public and partly in private schools . . 110 Part preparation in college 17

Number of schools in which preparation was completed . . 225 High schools 99 Private schools 116 Colleges 10 Schools in New England 61 Schools outside New England 164

The following table indicates the method of admission used by the 417 new freshmen:

New Plan 208 Old Plan (C. E. E. B. examinations) 149 Old Plan (Regents examinations) 51 Old Plan (C. E. E. B. and Regents) 4 Canadian examinations 2 Without examinations 3

The 417 freshmen admitted as new students in 1927 offered the following subjects for entrance in the group of restricted and unrestricted electives:

In considering the freshman electives, it is to be borne in mind that the change in the requirements for the degree, adopted in the spring of 1927, went into effect for this group of freshmen. The two modifications in the requirements for the degree affect- ing the freshmen primarily were the possibility of exemption from the required courses in English Composition and Hygiene in and the possible alternative of Pyschology and Philosophy the sophomore or the junior year to Mathematics in the fresh- man year. The increased elections indicated in the following table in History, English Literature, and Foreign Language are due primarily to these changes. The relatively large group of students taking Mathematics is to be noted. It was the fourth largest election in the freshman class. Nine students were exempted from the introductory course in 24 Report of the Dean or Freshmen

To the President of Wellesley College:

I have the honor to present the following report for the year closing June 30, 1928. The opening of this year found the College larger by sixteen than in September, 1926, the increase still due to the excellent staying qualities of the Class of 1929. Thanks to the addition of Severance, now fully established in popularity, there was room for thirty freshmen on the campus. It had been the plan to give Fiske entirely over to their use, but at the end of the summer it became necessary to find places there for nine trans- fers and four sophomores. A few freshmen were roomed else- where on the campus for various reasons, and it was possible to place all transfers who offered two years of college work in the larger houses. The gap in the list of houses in the November statement, where for so many years Stone Hall had appeared, seemed as strange as the loss of its picturesque towers in the Wellesley landscape, but those who had seen Founders Hall and Severance grow up from their sites on the other two hills had faith to believe that something beautiful would emerge from the scarred and battered slopes of Stone Hall hill. The village list from Birches to Webb showed no changes, but the private houses had shrunk from ten to eight, and the number of students accommodated in them from 141 to 114. When we are inclined to be discouraged at the slow progress in bringing our youngest class within the college grounds, it is well to turn over the file of village circulars with their long list of "approved houses" and take heart of grace. The last private dining room was given up nine years ago, and the number of private houses has grown steadily less since that time, until at 28 Report of the Dean of Residence this last opening of College 74 per cent of the freshman class were lodged in our own houses. On January 11, President Pendleton laid the comer stone of the new halls of residence at the southern comer of the western wing. The old corner stone of Stone Hall was used, and thus determined that the western house should perpetuate the name of Stone. It is a tribute to the work accomplished for the College by Olive Davis of the Class of '86, Head of Wilder, opener of many houses and Director of Halls of Residence, that the easterly half of the structure should be named for her, and that the generous gift left to Wellesley at her death should be devoted to this building. Another new name appears this year upon the campus. The four buildings of the Quadrangle, built during the adminis- tration of President Hazard, are now gathered together in name as in form, to be known henceforth as the Hazard Quadrangle, marked by a bronze tablet placed on Cazenove Hall beside the archway. It seems fitting to speak of another tablet placed during the summer of 1927 by President Pendleton in the lawn south of Tower Court, one which will appeal to all returning alumnae of the days before the fire. It is a simple tablet of blue stone of exactly the shape of the well-remembered palm basin with its border of marble tiles. It bears the inscription: THIS STONE MARKS THE SITE OF COLLEGE HALL CENTRE THE GATHERING PLACE OF STUDENTS FROM THE OPENING or THE COLLEGE IN 1875 UNTIL THE

FIRE OF MARCH 17, 1914.

The most picturesque feature of the year in the Department of Halls of Residence is without doubt the equipping of Dower House with kitchen and dining room to meet the needs of its own students and their Homestead neighbors, for the final demolition of Stone Hall after College closed brought to an end the last bit of service done by the old building in kitchen and dining room. It was not hard to find a dining room, since what could be better than Professor Pulling's lecture room and laboratory, ample in size, high-studded, and lighted with 29 Wellesley College many windows? But a kitchen was another matter. It was Mrs. Irish again who saved the day. Why not put the kitchen in the loft? Many other things had gone into that loft, but it had never occurred to anyone before that kitchen equipment could be so placed. However, Mr. Hooper and Mrs. Irish together accomplished the feat. The upper entrance over the bridge might have been made on purpose, so well did it serve the change. A few more windows gave plenty of light and ventilation. The Stone Hall family had always been used to dumb waiters, the only difference now being that they carried the food down instead of bringing it up. The cook says with truth and pride that no kitchen on the campus has so fine an outlook. Her only lament is that its term of service must be so brief.

In consideration of the large number of requests for financial aid of various sorts, President Pendleton decided at the end of the college year 1926-27, to make Wood a co-operative house in addition to Freeman, thus giving forty-five additional places for self-help students. In other words, through Freeman and Wood, Wellesley offered in September, 1927, ninety-six scholar- ships of $300 each. Mrs. Brandau, with her never-failing spirit of co-operation, undertook the more compUcated manage- ment of a self-help house, with some natural regret at losing the unusually large number of students who had signed to remain with her at Wood for their senior year. The places were in great demand, and a happy group of girls have enjoyed greatly the house and its Head. The same plan will be followed for the year 1928-29. The Boston Club House, too, has had the best year of its history, and Mrs. Bronson is able to report an increase of $1,000 in receipts over those of 1926-27. This is the result of her watchfulness over the management of the Club and her personal interest in its affairs. While the undergraduate use of the Club House has not greatly increased, it is gradually coming to the notice of the alumnae as a convenient lodging place and a desirable centre for meetings and social events of various kinds. It has been used this year by the Boston Wellesley College Club, for one of the monthly meetings of the American Association of 30 Report of the Dean of Residence

University Women, and for one of the meetings of Deans of neighboring colleges. Horton House should not be omitted from this report, for the year's history would seem to show that it is coming to its own. The rooms have been filled throughout the year, and the demands upon the guest-room have been greater than could be met. Under the management of the Social Committee a delightful series of informal entertainments has been furnished at intervals on Saturday evenings. The guest dining room is increasingly used. The College counts itself most fortunate in adding to its staff Mrs. Helen D. Bergen as the successor of Mrs. Meaker, and anticipates still further enlargement of the house activities. The schedule of what might be called the extra-curricula activities of the houses has been about as usual. The Church Conference and the Summer Kindergarten reported successful sessions. In midsummer a third group found a place here, the Summer Music School under Mrs. Dingley-Mathews. Mrs. Wheeler kept open Eliot for the use of its members, and though the numbers were not large the enthusiasm of those attending was pleasant to hear. The Wellesley Teachers Association and Middlesex Wellesley Club both met with us. Graduate Council swung back to its midyear date in order that there might be sufficient space not only for the club delegates but also for class representatives, who increased the number entertained over the week-end to more than one hundred. Shop Club has again had its meetings in different houses. Wilder and Dower Houses taking turns with Tower Court. Two events should perhaps be mentioned. The meeting of the National Education Association brought other associations to Boston. On February 29 the President and her Deans entertained the Association of Deans at tea in Alumnae Hall, a goodly number attending. On March 3 the Dean of Freshmen and the Dean of Residence gave a tea for the principals of private schools and their Wellesley students in the Great Hall of Towxr Court, an interesting and somewhat unusual grouping.

A single principal often visits Wellesley and gathers her girls 31 Wellesley College together, but on this afternoon every corner of the first floor at Tower Court was occupied by such a group. Another conference is of interest. In the year 1904-05

Juliet Poynter, then President of the Student Government Association, asked permission to call together student repre- sentatives from other colleges where similar organizations were in their beginning, and the group so gathered formed itself into an intercollegiate association which has continued to hold meetings from that time. In the course of years so many colleges of so many kinds joined that the organization became unwieldy, and it seemed best to the five colleges most closely connected, Bryn Mawr, Mount Holyoke, Smith, Vassar, and Wellesley, to withdraw from the large organization and form a smaller group, since they believed that because of difference in organization and character they added little to tlie general dis- cussion and gained small help for their own particular problems. Martha Biehle, President of College Government, invited representatives of the five colleges to spend an April week-end at Wellesley, and the second association, like the first, was organized here. Few years have opened with so many changes in the staff of this department. The end of the year 1926-27 brought the retirement of three Heads of Houses long associated with Hall Wellesley College. Miss Harriet M. Lester opened Shafer in 1909, and for eighteen years made the house a model of skillful management. Miss Kate Harris came to Wellesley in 1912, and as Head successively of Freeman, Webb, and Little was a stimulating friend to the students under her charge. Miss Adeline F. Hawley took charge of Birches in September, 1918, and, herself an alumna, as well as a teacher for many years, brought to the work an understanding of student problems both keen and kindly. Two others resigned in order to be with their own children^ Mrs. Laura Parker Furber, Wellesley '87, who for two years managed Leighton as successfully as she did the Club House to the year previous; and Mrs. Frances R. Meaker, who came Horton House in response to an earnest call for help, as she had done more than once before in case of need. Both these women 32 Report of the Dean of Residence have made a definite and valuable contribution to the hfe of Wellesley College for which we are truly grateful. Various changes were made to fill these vacancies. Mrs. Alilers took the headship of Shafer in Miss Lester's place, succeeded at Wilder by Mrs. Frances B. Lyman, who came to Wellesley from West Virginia University. Miss Stallknecht followed Miss Harris at Little, succeeded at Clinton by Mrs. May Allen Davidson, Wellesley '97-'99, sister of Lucy Branch '24. Miss Allen, '97, and mother of Nancy Davidson, Mabel Wheeler, sister of Miss Mary L. Wheeler of Elms, succeeded Miss Hawley at Birches. Mrs. Hassett moved from Dower to Homestead, and Mrs. Irish naturally took charge of Dower with its new dining room and kitchen. Miss Anne F. Rogers accepted the headship of Webb, coming to Wellesley from experience in private schools. In connection with the members of the staff, I must speak with sorrow of the death during the summer of Mrs. Sarah of the Groff Conklin, '89, whose service to the College as Head Guest House, Manager of the Information Bureau, and Head of Fiske, is remembered with gratitude; and of Mrs. EmiHe Parks Eastman, Wellesley '75-77, who gave to the co-operative management of Fiske her best thought and interest for the seven years from 1912 to 1919. I wish to speak in closing with grateful appreciation of the co-operation constantly given by the members of my staff, and of their continuing interest in the problems of the College whichat is our happiness to serve.

Respectfully submitted,

Edith Souther Tufts,

Dean oj Residence.

33 REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON GRADUATE INSTRUCTION

To the President of Wellesley College:

The Committee on Graduate Instruction begs leave to submit the following report for the academic year ending June 19, 1928. During the academic year 1927-28, there were enrolled 45 graduate students. In June, 1928, 13 students received the degree of Master of Arts, 12 of whom were enrolled during the year, and one, a former student, had completed the require- ments out of residence. Eleven students received the degree of Master of Science in Hygiene and Physical Education. Six of these w^ere in residence during the year, and five, former students, had completed the requirements out of residence. The major subjects of the 13 students who received the degree of Master of Arts were distributed as follows: Botany 4 English Literature 2 Astronomy Biblical History Chemistry Education French Psychology and Philosophy Zoology

The 45 students working for Master's degrees had received their Bachelor's degrees as follows:

The regular work of the Committee included the considera- tion of the credentials of candidates for admission, the general supervision of the work of graduate students, the awarding of graduate scholarships, and the consideration of the credentials of applicants for the Alice Freeman Palmer Fellowship. Of the 45 students in residence:

15 were carr>'ing the full program of 9 or 12 hours 4 paid tuition 4 had staff appointments 6 held graduate scholarships 1 held a foreign student scholarship 30 were carrying part-time programs 3 paid tuition 21 had staff appointments 6 held graduate scholarships (4 of which were for part-time work) Of the 38 students who did not pay tuition:

25 held staff appointments which permitted part-time work for a Master's degree 1 was a teacher in a neighboring institution, and held a graduate scholarship 11 held graduate scholarships 8 covered full work 3 covered part-time work 1 held a foreign student scholarship 35 Wellesley College

In addition to its work of general supervision of candidates for the degrees of Master of Arts and Master of Science in Hygiene and Physical Education, the Committee was this year requested by the President to take over the responsibility for the admission of candidates for the Certificate of the Depart- ment of Hygiene and Physical Education. This extension of the jurisdiction of the Committee seemed desirable, since a large proportion of the students of that department work simultaneously for the Certificate and the Master's degree. The Committee was also given charge of the consideration of recommendations of candidates for the two graduate scholar- ships awarded by the trustees to members of the senior class. A conference was held with the Horton-Hallowell Fellowship Committee of the Alumnae Association to discuss the conditions of award for that fellowship and for the Alice Freeman Palmer Fellowship, administered by the Committee on Graduate Instruction.

In addition, the Committee discussed, with a view to clarify- ing legislation and administration, questions concerning minors and related courses, prerequisites for graduate work, the six- hour theses, and the modem language requirement. The unsatisfactory operation of the modem language require- ment for candidates for the Master's degree led to the recom- mendation of a change in the legislation. In consequence, the Academic Council voted to substitute for the old require- ment of a reading knowledge of two modem foreign languages the requirement of a working knowledge of French or German to be tested at entrance.

Respectfully submitted,

Helen Sard Hughes, Chairman.

36 REPORT OF THE LIBRARIAN

To the President of Wellesley College:

I have the honor to present the following report of the administration of the Library for the year ending June 30, 1928. During the year we have added to the Library 4,401 volumes. Of this number, 30 were added to the Treasure Room collections, and 57 to the Brooks Room. Of the remaining 4,314 volumes, 3,525 were added by purchase, 789 by gift. The Plimpton Collection numbers 1,033 volumes, so that the total now accessioned is 126,593. We have expended for books $10,679.25; for periodical sub- scriptions, $3,735.44; for binding and repairs, $2,245.52; a total of $16,660.21. This sum is derived from gifts and from the income of funds as follows:

From gifts as follows: for binding, $22.00; for the purchase of books for the Art Library, $26.44; for the purchase of books on historical subjects, $151.98; for the purchase of botanical works, $404.41; for books of general reference, $16.39; for books for the Music Library, $25.25; for books on the Bible and religious history, $20.00; for books in the field of English Litera- ture, $1,107.53. This latter sum includes the income and part of the balance of the Pool gift, which was wrongly listed under funds in the last report of the Librarian. From the income of funds as follows: Abbott fund, $46.08; Horsford and Library Permanent and Van Nuys funds, $11,810.70; Kirk fund, $117.37; Morse fund, $110.77; Sanborn fund, $259.04; Shafer fund, $119.21; Sweet fund, $260.92; Wenckebach fund, $116.27; Elizabeth Peters fund, $52.89; Carolyn Dayton fund, $98.00; Niles Memorial fund, $14.86; Jewett fund, $4.63. Also from Botany insurance, $797.59; and from Fines, $1,077.88. A gift from Miss Susan Minns to the Botany Department enabled us to purchase a set of Curtis's Botanical Magazine^ 37 Wellesley College

1902-24, nineteen volumes, for our file of this important periodical, which is now complete, 1787 to date. Miss Helen Sard Hughes shared with the Library in the purchase of another important set, the Monthly Review, 1749-1818, 163 volumes. Other gifts of money received during the year included $40.00 from a former student of the Class of 1927, Mrs. Sarah Withrow Norstrand, which will be used for the purchase of books for the Brooks Room, and $20.00 from the Misses Linda Hires and Mary Hawley for the purchase of books for the Biblical History Department. Donors of books to the Library included Miss H. E. Mayo, who gave ten volumes to the Art Library; Miss Doris Miller, '28, who presented to the same library three volumes of Art Studies and Goldschmidt's Die friihmittelaUerUchen Bronzethiiren, an important work published in 1926; Miss Alice Bushee, who gave us a set of the Rollo books, Rollo's Tour in Europe, ten volumes; Miss Mary S. Barbour, '00 and Miss Rosalie Carroll, from whom we received thirty-five volumes, including some handsomely bound sets of French authors; and other members and friends of the College. We now have two very interesting copies of the Gospels deposited with us by their owners: the Armenian manuscript belonging to Dr. W. W. Peet described in the Librarian's Report for 1926-27, and a copy printed in Old Slavic at the Monastery of Kiev in 1746, left with us by Mrs. Edgar McNaughton (Stella Arnold Taylor, '09) on her return to Russia last fall. Thirty volumes have been added to the English Poetry Collection, twenty-five being the gift of Professor Palmer, who also added to the collection some very interesting manuscripts including a beautiful holograph of William Morris's poem, March, from The Earthly Paradise, signed by the author and dated January 7, 1895; also the complete original manuscript of George Borrow's Ellen of Villenskov and Other Ballads with corrections and emendations in Borrow's handwriting, and the first edition of this work, which was printed for private cir- culation in a Umited edition of thirty copies. In addition,

Professor Palmer's gift included the holograph of the Intro- ductory Essay to George Herbert's The Temple, written and 38 Report of the Librarian

signed with his initials by John Henry Shorthouse. A letter from Robert Browning in regard to his son's marriage, also presented by Professor Palmer, is an interesting addition to the Browning Collection, as was the gift from Miss Helen Temple Cooke of the "Clasped Hands" of Robert and Elizabeth Brown- ing, cast in bronze by Harriet Hosmer at Rome in 1853. Among the books presented by Professor Palmer was the first edition of Richard Braithwaite's The English Gentlewoman, London, 1631, and Samuel Daniel's Defence of Ryme, London 1603. An addition to the Autograph Collection, which is of especial interest to Wellesley, is an early letter, said to be the first written by Mrs. Durant when a child of eight. It is dated at Alexandria (Va.) February 9, 1841, and addressed to her cousin, Miss Frances Britton. It is beautifully written, and shows a

gift of expression quite above the average for a child of that age. The letter was presented to us by Miss Gertrude M. Graves.

A gift from Professor Elizabeth K. Kendall which has given great pleasure to the Library staff and to the users of the Library is the Chinese temple bell which takes the place of the harsh- sounding bell that was formerly rung to indicate the hour of closing the Library. During the year we have purchased twenty-six volumes of Materialien zur Kunde der Alteren Englischen Dramas, which partly complete our file of that publication. A complete set of the magazine Knowledge, in forty volumes, adds to our general scientific equipment; the first nine volumes of L'Arte make our set of that valuable periodical complete; Palau y Dulcet, Manual del librero Hispano-Americo, seven volumes, Barcelona, 1926, is a welcome addition to our bibliographical aids; while Goldschmidt's Gothic ai%d Renaissance Bookbinding, two volumes, 1928, is a mine of information for its period, as well as an outstanding contribution to its subject. The Champion edition of Stendhal, to be in thirty-five volumes when completed, is a valuable addition to our collection of French classics; the purchase of five additional volumes of Migne's Patrologia Latina gives us fifty-seven volumes of the more than two hundred of that mommiental work; Walcott's North American Wild Flowers, published by the Smithsonian 39 Wellesley College

Institution and Gronovius' Flora Virginica are handsome volumes added to the Botany Library; the Opera Omnia of Euler, twenty-one volumes, now being published by the Swiss Society of Natural Science, will when completed be an important addition to the Mathematics collection; and Jastrow's Dictionary oj the Targumin will be of help to advanced students in the Biblical History Department. The circulation of books in the General Library during the year is shown by the following table:

Total number of books circulated 45,370 Number of reserved books 16,162 Charged to students (including reserved books) .... 39,151 Charged to members of the faculty 5,908 Charged to alumuEe and others 311

This table shows a large increase over last year in the total number of books circulated, and this increase is evident under each class. The number of reserved books taken out over- night shows an increase of 2,514 volumes, and all other books taken by students an increase of 418 volumes. The usual number of classes has been held in the Treasure Room, and, exclusive of students attending these classes—a total of 152—there have been 534 visitors to the room during the year. Of these, 109 came during Commencement week, and there were at least four large groups at other times: the Brookline High School Librarians and assistants, library school classes from Pratt and Simmons, a group of thirty German educators who were touring this country, and fifty of the English pilgrims who visited the United States in June. Miss Weed, the Curator of the English Poetry Collection, has continued the work of inserting new entries in the Catalogue of the collection, and correcting entries when necessary. Among the exhibitions from the Treasure Room collections was one of John Gay's works, to celebrate the anniversary of the first performance of the Beggar's Opera, January 29, 1728; another in February and March, of books and manuscripts recently presented to the English Poetry Collection by Professor Palmer; and in May, an exhibition of autographs in books, of which the Library possesses many rare and valuable examples. 40 Report of the Librarian

In the exhibition of rare books and manuscripts at Commence- ment time, we again had the pleasure of showing a manuscript from the English Poetry Collection beside a copy of the thesis of the tliesis Poems founded upon it, the title being Unpublished in the of Anne, Countess of Winchelsea, from the Manuscript English Poetry Collection of the Wellesley College Library, edited with an introductory essay and notes. This thesis was pre- sented in June, 1928, by Mrs. Alice F. P. Fisher, in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree of Master of Arts. Perhaps the most interesting exhibition to the College at large was that of valuable books belonging to students, held for two weeks during May and June. For this exhibition all but one of the display cases in the Library were used, it being the aim to exhibit as many different kinds of valuable books as fine of possible. There were examples of bindings, interesting bookplates, of miniature editions, of autographed copies of limited editions by favorite authors, and examples of book illustrations from French copper plates of the eighteenth century to woodcuts by Rockwell Kent. There were also some leaves from a fifteenth-century antiphonary, and several quaint—old books, including an example from the Elzevir Press the Memoires of Phillipe de Commines. The Christians Zodiake, London, 1643, an emblem book first published in Latin in 1622 was very popular at that time, as was also the Advice to a Son, London, 1656. Among the first editions were Sir Charles Grandison, by Samuel Richardson; the Barring Out, by Maria Edgeworth, with presentation autographs of herself and two of her family who handed on the book to their descendants; the Marble Faun by Hawthorne; two of Emerson's works, and a second edition of Alice in Wonderland. The exhibition was so successful in awaking the interest of the students if at least an that it is hoped to make it, not an annual, occasional event. An exhibition of some of the most valuable books and manu-

scripts in the PHmpton Collection was held during Commence- ment week, including the Dante manuscript described in the Librarian's Report for 1926-27. The installation of a safe in the Plimpton Room has provided for the safer custody of 41 Wellesley College the very rare material in that collection. Screened by the handsome case of Flemish oak, long the property of the College, it now holds the most valuable of the books and manuscripts. The number of current accessions catalogued during the year amounts to 6,108 volumes, representing 2,601 titles exclusive The of duplicates, periodicals, and continuations. recataloguing 585 has gone forward steadily, 3,917 volumes, representing the Work was titles, having been recatalogued during year. also started on a dupUcate catalogue for the Zoology Depart- will be ment in anticipation of the time when the books removed in to a new building. Considerable progress was also made in the Alumnae cataloguing properly the books and other material Historical Collection. The cataloguing of sheet music which is done by the Librarian of the Music Library, Miss EUery, is not included in the figures as given. The amount of binding increases steadily with the acquisition of 156 of new periodicals. This year 489 volumes periodicals, pamphlet volumes, and 353 music scores were sent to the binder, besides 450 books sent for repair or rebinding; a total of 1,448 volumes as against 855 volumes last year. In addition to this, about 1,000 volumes were replaced in their loosened bindings at the Library by the method to which reference was made in cost of the Report for last year, thus saving or postponing the rebinding; and 122 volumes of little used periodicals were tied up and sent to the shelves with only a heavy paper binding. Every effort is made to repair books either here or at the bindery before they have become too much worn by use, unless the character of the book is such as to make the purchase of a new copy more economical. We try especially to save books which have been in the Library for many years, many of them very valuable and difficult to replace, yet in almost constant use. The character of the reference work done by the Library is too well known to need comment. It shows no sign of decreas-

ing. Not many hbraries of this size keep a reference Ubrarian on duty all the time, but there are very few moments during the week that someone is not delegated particularly for this work. It grows constantly harder for the Reference Librarian, from the side of physical endurance, with five floors of stack 42 Report of the Librarian

without an elevator and the impossibility of getting from the upper floor of one end of the building to that of the other except by descending the stairs, crossing the building, and ascending another stairway. There is crying need for the installation of a passenger elevator in the place of the book lift at the north end of the building. The book lift should have been planned to go down to the janitor's unpacking room, and such should be the plan if possible when the elevator, which would of course carry books as well, is installed. It is the aim of the Reference Librarian and her assistants not merely to find material for students, but to teach them how and where to find it for themselves; and it is gratifying to record the effect of this training is shown by the fact that most of the upper-class students bring to the Reference Librarian only questions that deal with the more out-of-the-way sources of information. We hope that Wellesley graduates who pursue their studies elsewhere are much better equipped to carry on research work in larger libraries because of the training received in the Wellesley College Library. The appointment of a Librarian for the Susan M. Hallowell Botanical Library, which was noted in the Report for last year, has been a very satisfactory development and has worked for the best interest of the General Library and the Botany Depart- ment. With the appointment of Miss Elizabeth M. Trumbull as Librarian of the Art Library for next year, we expect to reap the same advantage. Miss Trumbull has had experience in the Library of the Chicago Art Institute and was also in charge of the Art Library at Yale for three years. A new edition of the Library Handbook has been prepared during the year and will be ready for distribution to the freshmen in the fall; also a new edition of Regulations for the Ofi&cial Staff, which will be sent to all new members of the faculty. Additional chairs and tables placed in the History Room and in the stack have somewhat alleviated the crowded condition of the Histor\' and Economics Rooms. A table in the News- paper Room was reserved during the year for a graduate student in the Biblical History Department, who found it convenient to work there with books deahng with her subject. 43 Wellesley College

The desire for more study rooms for the faculty and graduate students, and for more rooms in which to hold small classes, is frequently expressed; and while we appreciate the real need that prompts such requests for rooms in the Library and do our of best to meet it, we wish to point out some the reasons why they must so frequently and regretfully be refused. It is often forgotten that a library must have space not only for a growing collection and for readers with growing demands, but that it must also provide space for the work of administration, which grows with the growth of the Library. "It is a poor workman who complains of his tools; but with adequate tools, a good workman can turn out a better product than with those that are poor or insufl&cient. In a very real sense, the library building is a tool." This quotation from the last report of the Librarian of Princeton University may serve as a text upon which to base a presentation of the handicap under which the work of the Library staff is carried on. When the Library was first planned, the College was much smaller, there was a smaller stafif, and there was less money to spend for books. Even so, the need for more working space for the staff was felt almost at once, and with every year the difficulty has grown and new expedients for meeting it have had to be devised. The Librarian's Office and the room originally designed for accessioning and cataloguing the books are at the opposite side of the building from the room where books are delivered and unpacked. There is no book lift from the unpacking room, and all books have to be carried upstairs and across the building. The only other working space originally provided consisted of a small desk for mending and a long counter facing the Ught, both in the stack. Some years ago the counter was cut into three small desks which were turned so that the Hght comes over the shoulder of the worker. Here all the reserved book work is done; the mail is opened and checked; the mending is done; and one desk provides the only place for two workers who, in addition to their other duties, have been assisting in the cataloguing of the Alumnae Historical Collection. Long ago one room in the basement was taken for the accessioning, stamping, and plating of new books, and for the collection and preparation of books 44 Report of the Librarian and periodicals for the bindery. The Librarian's Office is so small that her secretary, who also has a desk in a corner of the Office, has to have her typewriter in the same basement room, and goes there to do all necessary typing. Two other type- writers for cataloguers' use have also been in this room until recently, when one has been moved to a room across the hall, where all the work connected with the receipt of the material of the rapidly growing Alumnae Historical Collection must be done also. Two other typewriters have to be used in the stack, and three members of the staff have to be content with tables there instead of desks. The room planned for the cataloguers which opens out of the Librarian's Office is crowded by five desks, one of which must be used by two persons. The proximity of this so-called Cata- loguing Room and the Librarian's Office to the English Litera- ture Room, with two useless doors opening into the latter, renders it inadvisable to use a typewriter in either room. The Librarian and her secretary do all the order work, but are constantly hampered because of having so little space to keep the necessary books. Records are kept in the office in con- stantly growing files, but the trade lists and other publishers' catalogues are shelved in the Delivery Room; and while con- sulting them there, one is subject to constant interruption. The Librarian must conduct all conferences with faculty and students in the tiny office where the order work is done, so that inter- ruption of one or the other is inevitable. The Associate Librarian in charge of circulation, whose desk is in the crowded catalogue room, has constant need of a place where she can interview students and dictate letters in privacy. At present she must hunt some secluded corner of the stack or a temporarily empty workroom in the basement. The Library depends for its efficiency not only on willing and trained workers but on adequate and convenient working quarters, and there is no question but that eventually they will have to be provided. At present we can only do our best to meet new handicaps as they arise by devising new expedients. The cheerfulness of the staff in putting up with unsuitable accommodations for their work cannot be too highly praised; 45 Wellesley College and the willingness of the College Administration to accept every suggestion of the Librarian for the mitigation of the situation, which can be wholly eradicated only by an addition to the present building, awakes the warmest appreciation both of the Librarian and the staff. The Librarian also wishes to thank the Library Committee for their help during the year and the interest they have shown in all that pertains to the Library.

Respectfully submitted,

Ethel Dane Roberts, Librarian.
