Abstract/Notes: Dr. Maria Montessori and her attractive interpreter, Miss Adelia Pyle, will return from Los Angeles, where they went a few days ago, to spend Christmas at Boyland. After serving for four years as visualized senses of speech and hearing for the famous physician and educator, Miss Pyle seems almost Dr. Montessori's second self. Seated between the doctor and a visitor, she is intensely sympathetic and quick to catch every shade of meaning in what is said. With a quick cleverness born of association, she seems to anticipate what many of the doctor's answers will be, and her interpretation is usually preceded with "She feels that" such and such is the case. The famous originator of the Montessori system is much younger in appearance than one anticipates. She is rather tall and has the attractive brown eyes and hair characteristic of many of her countrymen. Miss Pyle is petite and blonde, with most attractive eyes, and a soft, pleasant voice. She is an American girl, a daughter of the man who originated and manufactured pearline. While visiting in Rome, Miss Pyle was introduced to Dr. Montessori, who admired her, and after quickly mastering Italian she became interpreter to Dr. Montessori. The first lecture she interpreted for the doctor was given in Holland and translated into French.

Mr. [Kelley] gave the children an automobile ride through the park as a finale of the day's program.
