One Of the foremost educators in America is
Principal L. l. Camp Of the Dwight School in New
Haven. Conn.,, whose portrait Is given above. HIS
pupils are scattered east and west. and many Of
them occupy responsible positions in business and
professional life, which they have won In no small
measure because of their early instruction aud
training under him.
Prof. Camp taught FIRST in Meriden, then as prin-

struction In the use of wood working tools in a
room fitted up in the basement Of the school.
Prof. Camp is a most exemplary citizen, and as a
man among men his views on matters Of public in
terest have been always worthy Of attention. lie
has represented Of the best sections of the city
as alderman for several terms.
Prof. Camp Is an active, progressive man, who

advancing years, and he has probably given no
more valuable advice In the nearly two score years
he has labored In educational fields than is con-
