famous music hall, which he ran for
them for time.
Even then he had the desire for op.

OF the theater was for the producing
OF opera in English. That failed, so
he became dramatic manager and
brought over Mrs. Bernard Beere, an
English society woman, the precursor
of Langtry. She had made great sue

position and the persistent booming
of her aristocratic friends.

was recognized as one of the best
read women and closest students in
Wisconsin. She appeared to be famil-
lar with all subjects of national and
state Importance, and for a time it
was believed she would become the
recognized leader of the womans suf-

A year ago last July Mrs. Winship
went to Columbus and, unknown to
her relatives, took up the examina-
tons for entrance into the State Uni
versity and was admitted. She took
an optional course, and in literature,
language. and science met with sue

osophy, psychology, and literature,

For many years she yearned for

Before Mr.. Dean became identified
with industrial education in New York
state he had put to a practical test his
ideas along these lines In New Eng
land and his plans were frowned upon
by those who took the position that
trade schools were detriment mas
much as they turned out young men
whose knowledge of trades was in
ferior to that which they would have
to the bench instead Of the desk.
1t was not until Mr.. Dean had
mapped out plan of operation where
by no exception to industrial educa-
ton could be taken by either organ
lied labor or by the manufacturer, and
existing school system that success
came. Even then it was not swift in
coming, for SO novel was the idea that
many had but little faith in the benefic-
ial results which were enthusiastically
predicted by the promoter. At first
they were graduated and readily OBJ
tanned better positions and an in
crease in wages, the roster grew to
satisfying numbers. All this was ac-
complished in New England.
Both by inclination and education
Is Mr.. Dean eminently qualified for the
position Of chief of the trade schools
division of the education department
Of the state of New York. He was
the first graduate of the Rindge Man
ual Training school at Cambridge,
Mass, the first school of its kind in
New England. Following his gradua-
ton he took course In electrical en-
cheering at the Massachusetts Insti-
tute of Technology and was gradu-
ated in 1895.
Mr.. Dean was appointed by Commits
sioner Draper of the New York State
Education department In pursuance to
3 law which became operative In 1908,
authorizing the establishment of trade
schools in cities and union free school
districts.
