scene in a large town half strange, half familiar. It was like looking at a movie screen only the people spoke and the buildings were real. An elevated roared down Main Street and stopped with a crash of brakes. A man got off and hurried down the street towards a large newspaper building. He was no other than Walter Moore, called Baldy by his friends, editor-in-chief of two of the widest cir- culating newspapers in Michigan. Possibly some of his success is due to the efforts of his able corps of workers, Marjorie Hooper, Janet Hollinger, Lucy Kingsley and Sarah Kings- ley, editors and Pavil Van Armen, Frank z.inn and icQ Lazur i reporters The old Post Tavern had been enlarged under the management of Floyd Sumrill and Howard Riley until it now occupied the whole block. The most obvious result of Floyd ' s being in the partnership was the installation of the largest cabaret in the city. The scene now shifted to that brilliantly lighted room and the four men stared at fairy-like figures that drifted over the polished floor. There my friends, said Prof. Brigham, breaking the spell, are a few of your old school friends. Probably I had better name them as you seem a trifle puzzled. The two in the center are LoDema Broceus and Louise Carson, noted dancers from New York and the other graceful girls dancing around them are Frances Thurlow, Nellie Taylor, Ona Sallows, Hilda Merrel, lada Kain, Helen Harmon and Hilda Hughes. Katie Robertson performs the newest Scottish dances each evening. They have Keene Wolfe in the Dance of the Jelly Roll with ' Charlie ' Beardsley playing the accompaniment on his magic flute. Whenever the management has extracted sufficient money from its patrons to afford it, they send for Kelley ' s ' Syncopated Six. ' Don spent five years in Memphis mastering dis- cords with Oakley Herrick at the piano. Good Heavens! man, sighed Bindy, When does the next train leave for that city? Across the street music of an entirely different nature reigned in a magnificient opera house. It was celebrated for its contracts with such musicians as Maxine Lucas, opera singer, Janette Johnson, violinist and Wilma Leal pianist. All of these noted artists are well known to the public as they make records exclusively for the Victor people. I mustn ' t forget to mention Odds and Ends, a jnagazine edited once a month and very popular in this city. Elizabeth Morgan is responsible for all the numerous laughs and jokes as she has special talent in that line. Madge Burnham and Helen Cavanagh submit the common sense articles and editorials and Lenore Weeks writes the Discussions on Modern Acting. Gertrude Dutton makes a very capable secretary and treasurer with Ruth Glasure, business manager. In the large ' Hotel D ' Eats ' ne.xt door, Mildred Shouldice, head of the Women ' s Athletic Association with June Tucker, Florence Lazarus and Evelyn Covert on the Executive Board are celebrating their victory over Kalamazoo in their recent Athletic Meet by giving a banquet to the members. A few of the members are : Edna Bigelow, Fern Gardner, Myra Bellman, Doris Campbell, Mildred Hej ' ser, Helen Houghtaling, Thelma Grames, Ella Longman, Marian Ramsey, Rachael Peterson, Merle Miles and Norma Willies. Farther down the street Allen Edmunds with a staff of barbers consisting of Harold Devereaux, Laurence Cowles, and Ernest Farley are running the most popular barber shop in town. All prospective customers are met with this sign, ' All Who Enter, Guaranteed a Close Shave. ' Immediately below you see Hobart ' s sign of business, Chipman ' s Lender- taking Parlors on Main Street. Holt Hollinger, Glenn Winger and Francis O ' Donnell were running a chain of very successful manicure stores with the help of Leda Cross, Marie Frederick, Ruth George, Gertrude Lippencott, Alta Lewis, Margaret Lorenzen, Eva Millar, Zilpha Hamlin, Charlotte Hoyt and Martha Gregory. Not to be outdone Phillip Lampke, Frederic Stevens, Kenneth Scudder and Leon Oshurn organized the ' Fashion Plate Shop, Inc., ' employing Harry Lam for his Oriental inspirations and Christine Markham, Ida McCauley, Sadie Rosenberg, Katherine Abbey, Mamie Anna- belle and Rosalie Anway as designers. And then to show their creations to the best ad- vantage they have Donna Rogers, Marian Preston, Dorothy Ashley, Alta Batdorff, Wini- fred Harris, Emerita Griffiths, Louise Jennings and Elizabeth Holmberg as models. A few others decided to prove their independence by organizing Women ' s Independence League. Some of their staunchest supporters are Beatrice Matteson, Leah Stiles, Vera Pulver, Mvrtle Mooers, Ethel McCauley, Nina Moran, Marian Rodgers, Dorothy ' atson, Wilfred Twitchell, Helen Travis, Ruth Thatcher and Arline Whitney. Not agreeing with some of their principles, Mulford Shaw, Richard Clark and LeRoy Hart tried to argue with them. Later they joined forces with some of their fellow sympa- thizers and decided it wo.uld be to their advantage to build a hospital. Martha Goold is one of the highest salaried French teachers in the state and Glenora Wakeham has accepted a position at Ann Arbor as a teacher of mathematics. (Continued on page 52) m 17
