Miss Susan D. Huntington is the
principal Of the international Insti-
tutc for Girls iE Madrid, Spain, where
Alice Gordon Gulick Memorial Hall
has. just been opened. The building
Is named in memory Of the fOundcr 0f
the institution and is said to be the
most perfectly equipped school in
Spain. Miss Huntington is a WclIcs-
ley graduate
The idea Of this school originated
in 1872, when young. girl of Santan-
der begged Mrs. Alice Gordon Gulick.
who was stationed in that city with
her husband as missionary, TO give
her lessons in reading and writing in
exchange for sewing, Other girls
made the same request, until very
soon Mrs. Gulick found herself with
a large class Later the class be-
came a school
In 1903 the school Was incorpor-
ated under the laws of Massachusetts
and land was purchased in Madrid.
II is on this land that the new memoir
ial hall has just been opened. There
are now seyenty-five girls in the
school Already $4,000 of American
money has been expended in buildings
alone. II is the purpose of the d.
rectors to make the institution self
supporting as far as. possible. Last
year the income was slightly over
$1,000. This covered all running eX-
penses excepting the teachers salary
list, which was met by American
friends, mainly graduates and under
graduates of women's solleges. Writ
ing of the students Miss Huntington
says:
I'VE have the vivacious little niece
of Sorolla. the Spanish artist of in
ternational fame; also the daughter
of a we'll known journalist, Columbine.
The child herself is good writer.
"0ne of our most interesting
students is a, woman who came from
the south of Spain claiming that she
was looking for friend who was 20
years old. Later il developed that
there was no such person, but be-
cause she was ashamed to apply her.
self she had invented the fiction
Though she Is past 30 she has entered
for half-year at least and now she
and her three nieces are established
in adjoining rooms. One woman with
considerable property has come sas a
boarder to learn to write and make
out her own accounts. In some of
the towns a large proportion of well
to do women can neither read nor
write" 's'..s. ~.
