At the Dominion experimental farm she is kept busy heading the section which investigates the morphology and histology of plants -or in plainer words, the structure and form. However, that hasn't been her only job with the horticultural division during the last 16 years. During the war she was in charge of experimental work in the fruit products laboratory. This has in- fiuenced one of her spare time activities-cooking. STOVE EXPERIMENTS "My main interest is trying out new things." she explained. Scientific t r a I ni n g evidently comes in handy because most ex- periments turn out quite well. Dr. MacArthur was born in Glasgow, Scotland. but came to Canada as a child. Her family set- tled in Pugwash, on the Northum- berland strait shore of Nova Scotia. She became interested in botany early in life. "I can remember when I was only so high noticing the plants in the woods and how they were very different from the ones on the sea- share." This interest grew until. when she entered Acadia University at Wolfvilie. she had decided to make a career of the study of plants. . She obtained her doctor's degree at Radcliffe College, affiliated with Harvard University. Later she taught at a glrls' college in El- mira, N. Y. "Being a Briton, I had no desire to remain in the United States. so I came back in Canada." she said. EDITS REPORT Delight in her work is evident Woman Horticulturist Loves Trying Out New Things as she steps briskly about the lab- oratory, or enthusiastically ex- plains some aspect of research. At the moment she is preparing the five-year report of the division for publication. She already has described her job in about 25 articles, published in various scien- tific and technical journals. In 1952 she was made a Fellow of the Agricultural Institute of Canada, mainly in recognition of her research in the fruit products laboratory. However. she is not too busy to do a lot of reading. especially mystery stores and articles on archeology. Then there is her house in Pug- wash. She and two sisters, both nurses in Boston. acquired-the 100- yesr-old cottage five years ago and they are gradually fixing it up.
