Biography

Beth Hurd: "He received all his educational training in Providence, attending Mr. Baker's Second District School on Meeting street, and later the private schools of Thomas C. Hartshorn and Joseph S. Pitman. Choosing to follow a mercantile career, he entered the employ of Truman Beckwith, with whom he remained until 1851, in which year he went to Augusta, Georgia, with Stephen T. Olney, as a cotton buyer. He followed that business with great success until the panic of 1857 began to make itself felt, and then returned to Providence, where with Mr. Olney he began the purchase of wool. In 1858 they commenced stocking the Glendale Mill, then operated by Lyman Copeland, and in 1859
acted in a similar capacity for the Greenville Mills, run by Messrs. Pooke & Steere. Both these concerns made cassimeres. They subsequently stocked the Mohegan Mills, where satinet was manufactured.

The Civil War put an end to the cotton business, and in July, 1862, Mr. Metcalf and Mr. Olney, in company with Henry J. Steere, commenced the
erection of the Wanskuck Mill. The formation and incorporation of the Wanskuck Company followed, Mr. Metcalf, Mr. Olney and Mr. Steere taking up the stock of the concern. In May, 1864, they shipped their first case of woolen goods to New York. On January 12, 1870, the Wanskuck Company shipped the first case of worsted goods for men's wear made in this country. The business grew rapidly from the very start, and had so expanded by October 1874, that work was commenced on a worsted mill, the machinery of which was put into motion in April, 1875. Further development rewarded their enterprise, and on July 12, 1884, the first delivery of yarn was made from the new Steere worsted mill. Early in 1897 the company assumed the management of the Geneva Mill, and in 1898 of the Mohegan Mill and Oakland Mill in Burrillville. All through the the period of the activity of the Wanskuck Company, Mr. Metcalf was an energetic and enthusiastic factor in its growth. He was a man not only of large vision, but of exceptional executive powers, and as president and treasurer of the Wanskuck Company from the time of its founding until his death, guided through the turbulent period of its infancy and set upon a solid foundation an organization which has since developed into one of the largest and most flourishing of its kind in the world.

Through his association with a business which was dependent to a large extent on the successful operation of other industries, Mr. Metcalf became interested in financial enterprises of magnitude and importance, and was active in their management and direction. He was associated with the Bank of North America for a considerable period, as a director, and later as president. He was also a director of the New York & New England Railroad; a director of the Providence Gas Company, and at one time its president; and a director of several manufacturers' mutual insurance companies, and for several years president of the Union Railroad Company. Though devoted to his extensive business interests, he was a man of social nature, and held membership in the Union League Club of New York, and the Hope Club of Providence. He was an honorary member of the Cobden Club of England, of which but few Americans are members; the late Rowland Hazard was also an associate member of this organization.

Originally a Republican in political affiliation, Mr. Metcalf later became an Independent. Despite the fact that he was deeply interested in public
affairs, the constant demands of his large business interests disbarred him from very active participation in this field. Nevertheless he served for
several years as a Republican member of the Rhode Island Legislature, and while a member of the house was influential in securing the passage of many valuable reforms. He was the first to introduce into the Legislature a measure changing the legal rate of interest. It became a law, the first of its kind in the United States, and set an example which many other States followed. Of this achievement he often spoke with justifiable pride. He also served as a member of the Board of Inspection of the State Prison, which body was the predecessor of the present Board of States Charities and Corrections, and had charge of the State's penal institutions. This Board of Inspection accomplished much excellent work during its period of office, and was given a vote of thanks by the Legislature. In 1888 Mr. Metcalf was a delegate to the National Convention held at St. Louis which nominated Grover Clevelend for the presidency. A pronounced free trader, it was remarked of him by an intimate acquaintance, that he was one of the few honest free trade manufacturers of the speaker's acquaintance; this gentleman was of the opinion that Mr. Metcalf would have put his ideas into practice if it had been possible for him to have his way.

Mr. Metcalf was at one time a member of the Commission on sinking Fund of the city of Providence. He left a monument to his generosity in the well appointed building of the Rhode Island School of Design on Waterman street. This school was erected as a tribute to the memory of his wife and her devoted labors, and in furtherance of its interests Mr. Metcalf donated the land upon which the building stands and contributed the money which assured its erection. He was a believer in practical philanthropy and took this means of accomplishing what he believed would benefit hundreds who would be permitted, because of his gift, to enjoy privileges which otherwise could hardly have come within their reach. The appreciation of the privileges and advantages of this school is best attested by the patronage which it has had. As a business man of many interests, as a man who performed his public duties with unswerving integrity and unquestioning fidelity, as a citizen who never forgot local interests in the larger questions which demanded his attention, as a friend, and intelligent Christian gentleman who recognized
his duty to his fellow-citizens in general, Providence had reason to be proud of Jesse Metcalf, and he was honored in his native city by all who
knew him."³

Biography

Helen A. R. Metcalf (1830-1895)
Expo inspires school for 'useful arts'

By CAROL McCABE
Journal-Bulletin Staff Writer

On May 10, 1876, Helen Adelia Rowe Metcalf was in Philadelphia when all the bells of the city -- even the Liberty Bell -- began to ring. The clangor announced the opening of the Centennial Exposition, the nation's first world's fair.

Mrs. Metcalf, 46, was the wife of Rhode Island woolen manufacturer Jesse Metcalf. She was a mother of five, a Sunday school teacher and an organist. She had gone to Philadelphia to help arrange Rhode Island's exhibit, 1 of 38 state displays at the fair. As the turnstiles began to whirl, she mingled with the throngs touring 450 acres of exhibits of progress in agriculture, horticulture, manufacturing, machinery, science and the arts.

More than 30,000 exhibitors represented 50 nations. Fairgoers gaped at newfangled bicycles, telephones, kitchen ranges, ready-made shoes and the world's largest steam engine. They tasted exotic treats: bananas and ice cream sodas.

One especially popular exhibit was the Women's Pavilion. While some of its displays reflected traditional domestic interests -- an Arkansas woman had sculpted the bust of a beautiful girl entirely out of butter, "kept on ice to preserve its subtleties" -- there was evidence of changing roles in a country where women already accounted for 20 percent of the work force. Women demonstrated machinery and their own inventions.

Also popular were the foreign exhibits, later credited with stimulating tremendous new interest in design and interior decoration in America.

Inspired by what she had seen, Mrs. Metcalf returned to Providence convinced that the country should be doing more to educate young people -- and women in particular -- in practical design.

She proposed using the $1,675 remaining from the centennial committee's Exposition funds to found a school.

That sum made possible incorporation of the Rhode Island School of Design on March 22, 1877. The first class included 43 students, most of them women. They and those who followed came to learn "useful arts, as, for example, designing for calico printers, for jewelers' designs, for carriage and furniture making."

As her family became the school's major benefactors, Mrs. Metcalf spent 17 years as chairwoman of RISD's committee of management. She was a hands-on manager who hired and fired, ordered supplies, cajoled patrons.

"She was very often at the school watching over both teachers and methods of teaching, stopped beside the students and encouraged them in their work, was anxiously concerned about the furniture and the best arrangement of it," according to a history of RISD by Elsie Bronson.

Mrs. Metcalf also "would take a hand at cleaning on occasion or call in her children and friends to help decorate for a party, for she was tireless in devising ways of entertaining and enlightening persons who contributed to the school or might do so."

Eventually her daughter Eliza, Mrs. Gustav Radeke, took over the reins and served at RISD until 1929.

At the end of the 19th century, though, it was Helen Metcalf who molded the school. She handled finances, made policy and debated such issues as the advisability of using live models in drawing classes. But although Mrs. Metcalf didn't hesitate to advise on the curriculum, there's nothing to suggest that she ever wanted the school to teach butter sculpture.

Wikipedia:

Helen Adelia Rowe Metcalf (1830-1895) was a founder and director of the Rhode Island School of Design (RISD) in Providence, Rhode Island.

Helen Adelia Rowe Metcalf was born in Providence, Rhode Island in 1831. In 1852 she married Jesse Metcalf, who was a cotton buyer in the South for several years prior to the Civil War and then became a textile manufacturer in Providence, co-founding the Wanskuck Co. in 1862 in Wanskuck, in the city's North End. Helen Metcalf taught at Sunday school and was an organist.

Helen Metcalf helped to found RISD in 1877 after she and a group of Rhode Island women traveled to the 1876 Centennial Celebration and were impressed by the arts displayed there. The group returned to Rhode Island with excess funds (in the amount of $1,675) which the group decided use to start an art school in Providence. The first class was mostly composed of women, who received education in "useful arts, as, for example, designing for calico printers, for jewelers' designs, for carriage and furniture making."

Metcalf directed the school until her death in 1895. Her involvement was direct and hands-on, and she took a keen interest in everything from teaching methods of the faculty, encouraging the students in their work, arranging the furniture in the most effective ways, and driving school fundraising efforts.

She was buried in the Swan Point Cemetery. Metcalf's daughter Eliza Greene Metcalf Radeke, served as president of the school after her mother's death. Metcalf's son, U.S. Senator Jesse H. Metcalf also served as a RISD trustee. She was inducted into the Rhode Island Heritage Hall of Fame in 1996.⁴
