House & Garden 
41 
This delightful house entrance 
will be shown iti the October 
number 
Y OU often see, scattered through 
the magazine, names under photo¬ 
graphs, mysterious names set in 
small type. They are the names of 
the photographers who took the 
pictures and we give them credit be¬ 
cause their artistic creations help 
make the magazine beautiful. This 
month you might like to meet them 
and so we’ll make them stand up one 
by one, the way the conductor of a 
symphony bids his solo musicians 
stand up to receive personal ap¬ 
plause. 
Deix Duryea. The “Drix” is a 
short cut from Hendrick Vanderbilt 
Duryea, which at best is a ponderable 
and ponderous name. Quite young, 
slim, hardworking. Last year he and 
his mother, Minga Pope Duryea, 
photographed some of the finest homes 
and gardens in England and France 
and this work has been shown in 
several magazines, notably House & 
Garden. 
Schuyler Carteret Lee. Little 
slip of a fellow, not over 120 pounds, 
with a moustache pleasantly reminis¬ 
cent of Mr. Charlie Chaplin’s. He also 
has an eye for architectural effects and 
has acquired the knack of registering 
them on a plate. 
George W. Harttng. Here is a 
man who used to take photographs 
while he wasn’t painting; he now 
paints while he isn’t photographing. 
A large person, hailing from the west¬ 
ern plains and with a cowboy bass 
voice, he is perhaps the most patient 
of all our photographic assistants. 
We like the big ring he wears because 
it goes with his big person, and we can 
forgive the “sideboards” that give a 
longish line to his otherwise rotund 
face, but we have our doubts about his 
hat. A modified cowboy hat. He has 
never been known to lose it because 
everyone knows whose hat it is. Mr. 
Harting photographs many of the in¬ 
teriors of the houses we show.

Mattie Edwards Hewitt. One of 
the hardest things to take successfully 
is a flower garden and yet Mrs. Hewitt 
has mastered the art. That is be¬ 
cause she not only knows photography 
but knows and loves gardens and 
flowers. She is unquestionably the 
finest photographer of gardens we 
have. A blithe spirit, very much of a 
business woman, capable of an enor¬ 
mous amount of work and very pretty 
withal, it is among the pleasures of 
our rather hectic life to have the 
assistance of so capable and charming 
a person as Mrs. Hewitt. 
ELenneth Clark. Urbanity com¬ 
mingled with a nice taste for archi¬ 
tecture characterizes both Mr. Clark 
and his work. He is a silent photog¬ 
rapher on the job, preferring to let his 
pictures speak for him. 
John Wallace Gillies. A tall 
blond, fast going bald, a man to argue 
you out of your shoes. Yet we have 
enjoyed being argued at these past 
eight years, for Gillies has done the 
majority of the houses shown in that 
time. Due to his appreciation of 
architecture and his ability to picture 
it, House & Garden has gained its 
architectural prestige. Gillies drives a 
long low car and sails boats. 
Robert W. Tebbs. One day you 
find him holding a camera, the next 
holding a music score, for when he is 
not taking country estates for House 
& Garden he is managing an oratorio 
society. Another large person, com¬ 
pletely bald, and given to keeping his 
appointments with annoying and 
helpful punctuality. 
Phillip B. Wallace. In the files 
of Mr. Wallace’s photographic plates 
you can find pictured the history of 
Philadelphia and its environs. His 
work has been shown in House&Gar¬ 
den almost from its beginning twenty- 
two years ago, making him the dean 
of them all.
