Wayne Sheley is now a professor of electricity in Purdue University and has as his assistant Filmore Davis. Rita Hiatt and Carroll McMahan decided that they were made for each other so they were married by the Reverend Carlos Winfrey who is pastor of a church at Sum,- mitville. Carroll has become a very wealthy man selling furs to the Africans. This en- ables Mrs. McMahan to have a personal maid and she is no other than Ruth Johnson, Rita's friend in former days. Although Ruth was originally hired as a maid she is more like a member of the McMahan household, and the two girls are very happy together. Netina showed Virginia a clipping from the Alexandria Gazette, a paper owned by John Edwards which gave the following account: Miss Harriet Pyle, head nurse of the Alexandria hospital and one of the most popular young ladies in Alexandria, gave a party last evening in honor of Miss Blanche Snyder who has just returned from an extensive trip abroad. Those attending the party were the Misses Ruth Dobson who has established a home for fanatical chemistry students, Dorothy l-licks, private secretary for Earl Durr, mayor of Alexandria, Gertrude Long, America's favorite prima dona, Audrey Cox, professor of physical culture, Oxford Col- lege, Ohio: Ruth Walker who has taken Mrs. John McMahan's fMable Cook'sJ posi- tion as Manager of l..eeson's Department store: Jeanette Cary and Rosetta Brown who are joint real estate owners in Florida, Mrs. Harold McNett, formerly Miss Hildred Pate, Mrs. Chester Clark, formerly Miss Olive King, Dr. Harry Weaver, the leading physician of Anderson, Mr. John Eckert, professor o-f the Charleston class at Summit- ville high school, Mr. Ernest Phillips and wife, formerly Miss Anne Galloway, Mr. Loren Brobst, a rising young electrician of Alexandria, the guest of honor, Miss Blanche Snyder, and the hostess, Miss Harriet Pyle. That was quite a 'write-up' for such a small paper, wasn't it? said Virginia. Well, you know John has always been brilliant, and Harriet requested that he put the achievements of each guest in the article because they were all her old class-mates. I sure have enjoyed hearing of them but I Want to see and hear a lot more about you. Will you and Alfred stay with me while you are in New York? I would love to have you. Please say you will. ' Netina consented and then went to join her husband who had been patiently wait- ing for an hour. 1 .. i . 07 xr f'fi7i'3 ,iii 'M 5- .v f . . ff' 'aff-,'z-f' H , fi '.' :'t. - W 4 fa: 550,553 s M A,-Q1E'4g.,.r. ......,,w-mmm,mgff:11-xi.:uwummnW gg::s:g2ii-gf 'fl--M -...-....,,,,,,um.v ......,,:.s?:::::.12ZZ'.f:::i?-...,.................... .... 2 H, it 3 9, ----- .... 1' -5, f ,...Qf3 i' haf 9:35235 - as-4 .1-H .

N V S T C- . n. i, Che Seem ester E .0 TIME WILL TELL What is so wonderful as New York at night? said Mrs. Alfred Winfrey, for- merly Miss Netina Stahl, as she gazed lovingly into the eyes of her young husband. They were spending their honeymoon 'in New York City and a very happy couple they were as they walked into the ante-room of tlte Globe theater ownd by the Gough-Horn Company. T Why, Alfred dear, look at this picture. It looks just like Virginia Searfoss and Milby Lynch. You remember them, don't you? Mrs. Winfrey had walked up to a picture of the feature dancers of the evening and was staring at it unbelievingly. She, be- ing very impulsive, sent a messenger with her card at once to the actresses' room. Virginia, for it was she under the name of Romana d' Thierry, was very anxious to see an old high school friend and sent the messengerback with a permit for entrance into her rooms after the evening performance. Netina was waiting for her, and after an affectionate greeting Virginia demanded to know news of some of her class-mates. Netina told Virginia of the mysterious disappearance of Hilda Miller. She was last seen talking one night with a strange woman dressed in black and the next morning she had disappeared. Freida Shaw, l'lilda's best friend, who is at present owner of the Bluebird Beauty Parlor at Orestes, has tried for three years to find her lost friend but has met with no success. . T Virginia interrupted Netina and asked if she had seen who was playing at the Palace Movie Theater. Netina had not noticed and Virginia said: Well, you woulcln't know her if l told you her movie name but it is no other than Dorothy Fuller under the title of Pola Trotsky. She has gained as much fame in the movie world as Pola Negri and is advancing rapidly. Everyone is expecting the announcement of her engagement to Herbert Huston, the multi-millionaire from California who has been in love with Dorothy ever since their high school days in Alexandria. Gibson Bell, James Wales, Earl Harrison and Elmo Dick are all happily married. Gibson is now manager of the Lippincott Glass Factory and Earl, Elmo and James are foremen under him. Netina also told Virginia of Alice Brown, the brilliant young lady who won the local oratorical contest at Alexandria in l926. She is now running for mayor of Frank- ton and she has a good chance of winning the election. Elsie Foster has taken the path that Miss Frazier took and is teaching Latin in her place at Alexandria high school. Oliver Brown is at present minister of a Lutheran church at Chicago. He was greatly surprised recently when Thomas Vaughn, the great tenor who has just returned 'i5f5 3'53?l' Y f' WN s YZ - A, Psi? Nt W -' 1' E We s .-N ck. s. f , . .- .

F gg ' ,Q-or eggagcramr CALIPI-I'S BLESSING You are now at the parting of the way, after traveling, together for four years, a road that we trust has been profitable, and for the most part enjoyable, although some of you have faltered at times, and others who started with you have fallen by the wayside. We congratulate you on the successful completion of this part of the journey, and while it is our misfortune to have directed you but two years, we regret very much to see you pass from our charge. Your paths will cross and re-cross many times as you continue the journey these days of the last four years. Although it is impossible for you to look into the future, we know from experience that the difhculties of the past are insignificant when compared with those in the future. Each must select his goal, and then muster all his courage and determination to reach that goal. The road may be rocky and steep, but each stumbling block must be made a stepping stone to a new success. We must bear in mind that few worth-while accomplishments were ever made without great effort. Our fondest wish, in parting, is that you may do great things and achieve great successes, even though you must sacrifice much, and that at the end of your journey you may say with Paul of old, I 'have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith. , E.
