Dear Eddie: 1 Received your letter and was quite surprised to hear of so many of our former classmates. While on my trip this summer I met and heard of quite a few myself. The first day out I stopped at a little town called Doeville for lunch and when the waitress came in I beheld none other than Grace Smitely. We talked a minute and she called her husband, who was our own football tackle Shot Sanders. Squirrel Wilburn, I learned, was their chef, but as he was off for the day I didn't get to see him. I learned however that he was engaged to Edna Grubb, who has a bakery across the street. Shot told me that there was a dance in town and ask- ed me to stay and see more of my old friends. When I beheld the orches- tra I found them to be no other than the Livesay Hottentots, Bill Livesay leading. Other members were Columbus Carter, Lawrence Dawkins, and Arthur King with Alice Diana Woodfin as soloist. Ray Fields was at the dance with his bride Margaret Mayo. They recently returned from a honeymoon to the Orient. Clay Henry has lately received his fourth masters degree and has two honorary degrees from Yale and Princeton. He is to marry Katherine Da- vis next month. Reading the paper last evening I saw where Eloise Hig- gens is running for sheriff of Lawrence Co. I also read Where Two Gun

I have seen so many of our for- mer classmates that I must tell you before I forget. The first persons with whom I came in contact were Mr. and Mrs. Robert Phipps who were on their way to Atlantic City for a vacation. I suppose you know Mrs. Phipps was Jean Mountain. Jean informed me that Mr. and Mrs. H. Breeden would join them as soon as business permit- ted. Helmuth is president of the Chamber of Commerce. I think I told you in my last letter that while abroad I had the pleasure of meeting the famous American poetess, Miss Alfreda Edelson, and also heard Miss Lil- lian Salle broadcast over radio from New York Why I am a Lawyer. While in a pullman just out of Philadelphia my eyes lit on Miss Margaret Lemon and Edna Belle Litteral, who told me they were traveling salesla- dies for Armstrong Heaters. While in Florida I looked up our old friend Harold Rolph who owns a splendid orange grove there. Harold blushingly told me of his approaching marriage to Miss Roxie Marshall. And now for the Old Home Town, I know we are more interested in that after so long absence. Just glancing over the Irontonian I find that Homer Minard will be Principal of New Boston High next year, also that Mr. Emerson Smith is speed cop on the Ironton-Portsmouth roadg Mr. James Miller has taken over the Lyric Theatre and as a special feature this evening Miss Clara Stapf will impersonate Tillie the Typist. I see where so many of our former classmates are in business. Here are just a few of them. Bernice Shafer owner of the Elite Beauty Parlorg Albert Handly Men's Clothing Storeg Charles McClellan, a Barber Shop, and Paul Roush, a Hardware Store. Oh yes! Evelyn Purnell is conducting a tea room just above South Point with Helen Long, Dorothy Metzger, and Francis Irwin as assistants. Also, Miss Lu Ogden leading political leader of the day will begin her fa- mous Back Porch Campaign tomorrow, her fiance, Mr. Nazor will take an active part. Tom Mayne conducts a dancing academy, some of his pu- pils being Gladys Wade, Mae McCafferty, Eleanor Bishop, and Ruth Har- per. Fred Hardy and his famous orchestra are starting on a concert tour next week, his specialties are Leonard Smitley, Doc Lynd and Emerson Hall. Congressman Ralph Lake is introducing a bill in the house to prohibit the use of the Cross Word Puzzle, he argues it is driving too many people insane. Mr. John Crance has donated 3100,000 for the upkeep of the Old

W Heinie alias George Young had broken jail for the fifth time. They say he never really killed anyone but is just playfully wild. Irene Venz and Bertha Gannon have started a chain of cafeterias and are doing very well. Genevieve Cloran is posing for pictures for Palm Olive Soap advertise- ments. Yesterday I stopped in a barber shop and Enoch Allen gave me a shave. Emmitt Simpson was his partner in the business. Red told me that Mary Allen had a beauty parlor next door and when I went in, not only Mary but also Eloise Shore greeted me. Arthur Porter, who is a suc- cessful New York broker, has bought a seat in the Stock Exchange. Mary Hall has become very famous with her latest stage farce, They Named It Mud. Tom Crance is telling bedtime stories for station T. E. C. I stayed two weeks in Cleveland. Taking a taxi out of the station I found my cabby was Wendal Ray. He informed me that he had chosen for his better half Eunice Venz. Dr. J. Archibald Davis is head of a charity hospital in the city. Some of his nurses are Helen Venz, Dorothy Birch, Cloatine Byrne, Avenelle Griffith and Irma Dillow. Morris Steiner has a designing parlor in New York. A few of his models are: Corabelle Casey, Viola Lambert, Louise Wileman, Aline Long, Jessie Mae Tucker, Marjorie Maxey and Beatrice Rudeman. Mrs. Alma Lunsford Turpin is living in Columbus where her husband leads an orchestra at the Palace Theatre. I also saw a good movie last night entitled White Mules starring Virginia Irish and Maurice Campbell. Kennard Boll and Lillian Oakes danced at the Rity this evening, and I received a very good reservation from the manager whom you probably know is Ralph Brammer. William Boggs is boxing tonight for the Middle Weight Championship. Charles Krell won a medal last week for being the best soda-slinger in Southern Ohio. Hilda Smith and Nelle Sickerman will battle for the tennis singles championship this afternoon. I just heard that the Wreckem Research Society has some interesting discoveries under the competent guidance of Professor Wilbur Wiseman. Professor Wim-- man's right hand man is Virgil Jenkins. Frances Wilson, Katherine Ward, and Fannie Saunders are with Barnum's Circus as the Queens of the High Wire. John Lane is playing in a new screen comedy of Let the Wedding Bells Ring Out. Oh, yes! there is a new preacher in town to take Cliff McDaniel's place. Cliff has been transferred to Cincinnati. The Sun has been publishing some new cartoons called I'm the Guy , and the artist is Big Boy Brammer. Well, Eddie, I guess I must ring off for the present. Remember ITS' to everybody.
