THE STAFF
The Director acknowledges the loyalty and efficiency of those associated
with him in the work of the department. To them belongs a large share of
any credit which may be forthcoming for the value of the exhibit.
In an educational exhibit, probably more than any other, the necessity
of a personal explanation to supplement the work exhibited is necessary.
Miss Olive C. Kellogg, of New York city, and Miss Clara M. Paquet, of
Cohoes, expert attendants, were always ready to explain the work
exhibited, and to give full information concerning the distinctive
features of the various city systems and institutions. They spoke the
principal foreign languages, thus aiding visitors from abroad in more
easily grasping the ideas set forth and the methods exemplified.
Miss Mary MacArthur, of Rochester, N.Y., served throughout the period of
preparation and through the Exposition period as general assistant and
stenographer; Hugh J. Kelly, of Albany, N.Y., as assistant and clerk,
and E.J. Haddleton and H.B. Skinner, of Albany, as expert letterers and
draftsmen.
