Juliana Reiser Force (1876-1948), American art administrator, assistant to Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, director of the Whitney Museum of American Art. "Juliana Force was imperious, homely and witty, with an erratic eye, a terrible temper and an absolute commitment to her cause." (Roxana Robinson, from her 1990 New York Times review of the book Rebels on Eighth Street: Juliana Force and the Whitney Museum of American Art by Avis Berman.)

Nice portrait. A lovely time in history to be remembered!

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called British Army, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

The poor man in the first bed looks a though holding a parasol is the last thing he should be doing :-(

You'll notice too that each man is tucked neatly away under his sheet and blankets, which are all precisely folded and tucked under the mattress. Not a wrinkle or an uneven edge to be seen anywhere! Precise nursing technique to be sure! I wonder if they were carried outside and back in again while still lying in their beds? Looking closer at the patient in the last bed, farthest from the camera, he seems to have his covers draped across some sort of "tenting" device or blanket cradle, to keep the covers from putting undue pressure on his legs. Could be to keep the blankets and sheet from resting directly on a painful wound, a burn, or even a lost leg.

This is one of some newer stories about the giant crocodile Howard, from the same area of Bamboo Creek. This time is not at all about killing a crocodile. Giant crocodile, Howard, has 10yo Elroy on his side — fighting for him to remain on creek bank ABC Far North / By Kristy Sexton-McGrath A 10-year-old boy has penned a letter pleading with authorities not to touch a giant crocodile that has been targeted for removal. The 4-metre crocodile, known as Howard, has long been part of the small community of Miallo, north of Cairns, in far north Queensland. But the State's Environment Department has now set a trap after a resident complained that Howard had been sunning himself on a creek bank that backs onto homes. Schoolboy Elroy Woods said he had written to the State's Environment Minister, Leeanne Enoch, asking for the trap to be removed. "I lived at Bamboo Creek Road for five years, right on Saltwater Creek," he wrote. "I loved watching Howard the crocodile sunbake and enjoyed seeing him from the bridge every afternoon." "I'm very saddened that Howard is being moved away from his home and I don't understand why a trap is there for Howard," he said in the letter. Not a problem croc Elroy is not the only resident to come to Howard's defence — resident and tourism operator David White said Howard had never been a problem. "I know sometimes crocodiles have to be removed because they stalk people and boats, but Howard's never done that," Mr White said. "This crocodile is in a saltwater creek where no one swims." He also said removing a big, dominant crocodile could see other, more aggressive crocodiles take over the area. Elroy's mother, Melissa Hills, said she hoped her son's letter would make it to Ms Enoch. "I was tidying up his room when I found it and we decided to post it," Ms Hills said. Elroy said he was "very careful" around crocodiles. "I always stand back at least 6 metres from the water's edge and don't go near the water at all when it is dark."
