was able to produce some of the finest<br />

collections of students' work exhibited<br />

in recent years.<br />

For the past forty years he has<br />

been doing engrossing of all kinds,<br />

filling in diplomas, making diplomas,<br />

resolutions, memorials, etc. He delights<br />

in addressing all of his envelopes<br />

in a very striking style of<br />

Ornamental Penmanship. Many of<br />

the postal clerks know of Mr. Barnett<br />

because of his beautifully addressed<br />

envelopes. He has also used Ornamental<br />

Penmanship to good advantage<br />

in advertising the Spencerian<br />

Commercial School of Cleveland, Ohio<br />

for whom he wrote advertising material<br />

at the Cleveland Exhibition.<br />

Mr. Barnett has a very complete<br />

and valuable library of useful engrossing<br />

books.<br />

Mr. Barnett has a very charming<br />

wife and five grown children, of whom<br />

he is justly proud. Practically all of<br />

these children have helped Mr. and<br />

Mrs. Barnett in the studio where Mrs.<br />

Barnett is an important official. It<br />

is her duty to see that all the work<br />

goes out in first-class shape with no<br />

mispelled words and she also does<br />

some of the pen and brush work herself.<br />

One of the daughter, Harriet, attended<br />

the Zanerian College of Penmanship<br />

and supervised handwriting<br />

in the public schools of Lakewood,<br />

Ohio for some time.<br />

<strong>The</strong> second daughter, Mary, is specializing<br />

in Engrossers' Script and at<br />

the present time is taking a special<br />

correspondence course through the<br />

<strong>Educator</strong> office.<br />

Mr. Barnett sent his nephew, Roger<br />

Barnett, to the Zanerian a few years<br />

ago. Roger is now working for the<br />

Rounds-Truman Studio in Chicago,<br />

and we can truthfully say that Roger<br />

is turning out some of the finest work<br />

in the Engrossing business today.<br />

You cannot talk to Mr. Barnett very<br />

long until you have caught the penmanship<br />

enthusiasm which permeates<br />

his entire being.<br />

Mr. Barnett has done tremendous<br />

amount of engrossing. We congratulate<br />

Mr. Barnett and his happy family<br />

and hope that he may continue to<br />

do engrossing and inspire the penmanship<br />

profession for many years<br />

to come.<br />
