Mother gave Father a knowing look andsaid, O, the thing you would have liked best were intriguing little cakes. They were from Violet Prine's shopk-and each one was decorated differently and appropriately named. Mine was called Nite-li-fe in Fort Wayne and Fathc-r's was Daybreak on the Great, Green, Greasy Simpocof' While Bonnie eyed her toast dreamily, evidently seeing in it one of the lovely cakes, Mother added, to Father, Wasn't it splendid of Violet to join the Lucy Stone League and use her maiden name? It shows she is an artist, don't you think? . Father, mother changed the subject as women al- ways do, lf we're really going to sell 'Tony' and get a new car, I'd like one like that. 1 n Like that?

Does John say anything about the rest of the class? Yes, he says that Dot Kahle stopped at the harem last week for luncheon, with her fifth husband. It's Dot's third trip around the world, isnft she lucky? She told Charley that she ran across Ilo Stose in Paris.' Im- agine, she is known as Jitsu, the famous Hindu crystal gazer. She would be perfectly suited to that with those dreamy eyes. Here's a letter, too, from Pete Ninde. She is go- ing on Mr. Hu-ll's annual Hawaiian tour this spring ac- companied by Fern Ferneau to get material for illustra- tion for Albert Payson Terhune's new book.

The oflicial organizer from New York is to be there. He's the nicest man, Daddy. He has a wee little mustache and looks just like Doug- las Fairbanks! Last year he was here and taught us the camp-fire motto: A duck anday and keep the mouse rats away. jolly, that sounds like Rack Birkmeyer, another member of the class of 1926, said Daddy.
