<b>HAVENS, BELLE.</b> Awarded third Hallgarten prize at National Academy of Design, winter of 1903. Born in Franklin County, Ohio. Studied at Art Students' League, New York, and at Colarossi Atelier, Paris. In New York Miss Havens was directed by William Chase, and by Whistler in Paris.

The present method of study in Paris in such academies as that of Julian and the Colarossi secures to the student the criticism and advice of the best artists of the day, while in summer in the country and by the sea there are artistic colonies in which students lead a delightful life, still profiting by the instruction of eminent masters.

Pupil in New York of Charles Melville Dewey and the Metropolitan Art Schools; in Paris, during three years, pupil of Girardot, Courtois, the Colarossi Academy, and of Aman-Jean. Mrs. Kaula is essentially a portrait painter, although she occasionally paints figure subjects.

When Carmela Colarossi, her face swollen with weeping, told a story of parental harshness grown unbearable, Emma would put aside business to listen, and six o'clock would find her seated in the dark and smelly Colarossi kitchen, trying, with all her tact and patience and sympathy, to make home life possible again for the flashing-eyed Carmela.
