RENOCAHI Marion Chance had an interest in Ellington Drug Company, and Lib Stocks had an interest in XYilliams and Company. Lindsey Smith was successor to his father, and Spencer Smith was pitching for the Giants. Blueford Mooriield was in business with Mr. Henry Ford. Edna lYagner was a Cabaret Dancer. Bessie IYashburn was teaching Spanish at Cornell University. Harry XYeatherly was running a prosperous poultry farm. Christine Johnson and Beatrice XYilliams had opened a tea room in Florida near Frances Butler's winter hotel. Elizabeth McGehee was a celebrated piano artist. Loula B. Clark was with the Reidsyille Rc-z'z'ctt', and Ioettie Elling- ton was keeping' the Home Fires Burning. Une of the most astonishing things I read, though, was that Irma Simpson was going to run against Tom Wvilson, who is linishing up his term, for President in the next election. I might add here that Edna Earle lIcGehee, after her late husband's death, Mr. Briggs, has become the wife of the President. Of course, he's more of a yice- president when she's around. By the time I had read all the leaves it began to grow dark. I picked up my pad and strolled out of the caye in the wood, meditating on what I had seen. H. C. PAMPLIN, Class Pl'c7fflc'f.
