Swninr Ullman lirnphvrg ill COULD hardly realize that l had let ten years pass without visiting my clear old Alma Mater, and l decided to attend another Commencement, the first since my graduation. Living in California, l had had little opportunity to know either of the school which l had attended, or of my old classmates. So on lVlay twenty-fourth, nineteen hundred and twenty, l took an air ship for A'kadelphia. When we got to Salt Lake City, a very fat lady, dressed in black and fan- ning vigorously with a turkey wing, got aboard. The machine started and soon she unexpectedly began to sob with every breath, Air, Air, give me air l l saw she was sick and asked if there was any thing lcould do for her. She said, lf you don't get me off this thing I believe l shall die. l discovered that, not being used to traveling on air ships, she had become air sick. l thought her loud, shrill voice sounded familiar and after looking at her more closely, discovered that it was my old classmate, Fletcher Gunning, who was a very ardent advocate of woman's rights and was on her way to St. Louis where she was to deliver an address. As it was sometime before the ship would get to one of its regular stops, and Fletcher was becoming deathly sick, l asked the driver to put us off. The place where he landed us was a little villiage, consisting of three or four stores and two or three dozen cottages. We went into a drug store for some smelling salts. The clerk stepped up, and imagine our surprise when we recognized him now to be Dr. F. Whiteside. ln his senior year he had been disappointed in love and had gone as far as he could from all who knew him, to begin life again, and was now living the life of a jolly old bachelor. We learned from him that lVlr. Lawrence Rogers was one of the most pros- perous farmers in the little villiage. We went out and spent the night at his country home, and the next morning Fletcher was entirely recovered from her illness, so we proceeded on our way, Lawrence driving us to the nearest station. When l got to Little Rock a very distinguished looking, middle-aged gen- tleman, with long, curly, brown hair falling over his shoulders, got on the car, telling the conductor he was bound for Arkadelphia. All right, Governor, was the warm reply. lmagine our astonishment and joy, when on closer ap- proach we recognized a member of our old class, Ned Atkins. He told us that he had been asked to deliver the Baccalaureate address at Commencement, and ll8l
