George Maynard created the Scholastic News in Montreal in 1878, and served as its editor.

Harry Mayerovitch was born on April 16, 1910, in Montreal, Quebec.

He was a Canadian architect, artist, illustrator, author, professor, and cartoonist. He received a Bachelor of Arts and his degree in architecture in 1933 at McGill University.
In the course of his long architectural partnership with Alan Bernstein and Lionel Mincoff, he designed many buildings in the Montreal area. Architecture projects were put on hold when Canada entered World War II. He turned his attention to painting, with one painting, a war-themed work entitled “Home Front”, exhibited at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts.
He became artistic director of the National Film Board's Wartime Information Board’s Graphic Arts Division. From 1942 to 1944, he produced World War II propaganda posters, using the artist's signature "Mayo". After the war, he resumed work as an architect and became active in urban planning.

In 1965, he began to teach at McGill's School of Architecture and remained on faculty until his death. In 2000, his 90th birthday was marked with the planting of a magnolia tree in the School of Architecture's Centennial Garden. He was a member of the Order of Architects of Quebec, the Corporation of Urbanists of Quebec, the Canadian Institute of Planners, the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts, the Canadian Society of Graphic Arts, and was a Fellow of the Royal Architectural Institute of Canada.

In 1937, he married Lily Caplan. He died on April 16, 2004, in Montreal, Quebec.

William Sutherland Maxwell (1874-1952) embarked on a partnership with his elder brother officially in 1902. He began his architectural training at a firm in Boston and later received a Beaux-Arts education in the atelier of Jean-Louis Pascal (1837-1920) in Paris. This training is notable in William's more ornately classical design sense, differing measurably from his brother's. William began participating in the Maxwell firm as early as 1894 as a draughtsman. As partners the Maxwell brothers combined their different sensibilities to create some of the most important residential, public and civic architecture in Canada. William spent the last years of his life in Haifa, Israel, where he remained until 1952, whereupon he returned to his native Montreal. He died soon after.

William Sutherland Maxwell (1874-1952) est devenu l'associé de son frère aimé en 1902. Il s'était initié à l'architecture dans un cabinet de Boston puis avait reçu une formation en Beaux-Arts à l'atelier de Jean-Louis Pascal (1837-1920) à Paris. Cette formation est visible dans le style de dessin classique ornementé de William, très différent de celui de son frère. William était dessinateur pour le cabinet de Maxwell dès 1894. Devenus associés, les frères Maxwell surent conjuguer leurs sensibilités différentes afin de créer certains des projets d'architecture résidentielle, publique ou municipale les plus importants au Canada. William a passé les dernières années de sa vie à Haïfa (Israël) où il est resté jusqu'en 1952. Il revint alors à Montréal, sa ville natale et mourut peu après.
