nese at school. We got out just in time, Carol.
Irene lfranklin is teaching Latin at Columbia
where Gertrude Lombard is teaching Mathg
and is quite discouraged because she can't get
as many A's out of her pupils as she used to get
herself. What is Mary Martin doing?"
" Oh, she is queen of all stateswomen as
Mayor of Warner, New Hampshire. And I
just heard yesterday that Gertrude Bowman
is an accompanist for Sousa's Band."
" Mary Brewer is happy. She is an influen-
tial member of Worcester Society, and is run-
ning the Charity Ball this year with Jennie
Marr to assist her."
Rattle-de-bang, clap, clap, bang, a voice from
the tumult. "Want any help?" An anti-
quated Ford truek appeared, breathing out its
last 011 the up-grade and coming to a stop with
a final groan of despair. A majestic figure dis-
mounted from the front seat and regarded the
rear axle with motherly concern.
" Copie, Copie ! " screamed Carol, plowing
through the remains of her splintered plane
towardhher beloved pal. "Copie!,' and with
another stride reached her outstretched arms
and was clasped i11 a tight embrace.
" Oh! I am so glad to see you! Buzz is here!
Our planes hit each. other, but we were n't hurt.
COINS over and tell us all the spice."
"Hello, Buzz? how are you? IVhat have
you and Carol been doing to each other? "
" Oh, Copie, is n't this just like old times?
What have you been doing? Do tell us all the
spicef,
"Why, Ilm patrol of the Newton Skyway.
Ifve just been released from Naval duty and
have been over to put my Caproni Biplane in
the hangar. Let me see, what can I tell you?
Well, Ruth Hathaway is leader of the National
Community sings, illltl Ellie Taylor is in charge
of the New Rochelle Branch, having made such
a success that she managed to get Stibby away
from the whirl of Springfield society long
enough to captivate the hearts of the boys."
" Up to their old tricks," said Buzz. "Jerry
Murray has just published a pamphlet on ' How
Lillian Russell and I Retain Our Beauty., I. 'in
trying the treatment myself."
V9'
Varol, disgustedly, " llumph.
Vopie, undisturbed, "I can tell you some
more if you stop discussing beauty long enough
to listen. Bubbles never sees the old crowd any
more as she is so wrapped up in her beloved
settlement work that she canit bear to leave
Worcester. And Pearl Button has finally
formed the link between Vermont and Cali-
fornia by her famous trip on which she tried,
with great success, the ' Eat and Grow Thin
Diet! Y' And l,ve heard about nearly all the
girls that lived near Andover. Helen Dole is
head of the Lawrence City Missions, and Dor-
othy Evans has roused the people by her stirring
speeches on factory oonditions. Elizabeth Sjos-
trom has founded the New Andover Jitney Sys-
tem and is running back and forth and around
for Philtljip's friends and their suitcases, and
Mooey Johnson is doing kindergarten work on
the hill. Dot Shapleigh is exhibiting remark-
able china in her charming little Andover gift-
shop."
" 1sn't it just great to hear about what every-
one is doing ! " exclaimed Buzz. " I saw Gladys
Glendinningfs name o11 a movie billboard the
other day, Pllld Grace Kepner is making mil-
lions writing movie scenarios."
"Harriet Harrison is running a Hostess
House at Hotehkissj, interposed Carol, "and
Catherine Danforth is doing her bit for the
development of the ' F leet,' while Margaret
Worman is posing for Harrison Fisher and is
also taking a course in expert photography. By
the way, is n't, or rather, was n't my plane a
beauty? I got it from 'KY Beck. She has
been giving us all pointers in the aviation
line." A
Buzz, as usual, " My! but I'm hungry, is n't
there a dog-cart around here somewhere? I
can't leave my plane."
Copie, rising, " Come on up to the house for
breakfast. As for the planes, we 'll take them
along. Hop in, I 'll pick them up."
Bang, clappety bang, clap. . .and the
faithful little Ford once more took up its bur-
den of life, said burden not by any means
lessened by the addition of Carol and the
splinters, to say nothing of Buzz!
