T CARLISLE, PA. Dem' F1'iend.' I need not tell you of the delightful time we are having, knowing the class as you do, this statement is unnecessary. It seems so queer to see us older. Some are quite gray. You would scarcely believe it but I weigh only 98 pounds and am none too well. Rachel's family,Awith whom I spend a large part of my time certainly are beginning to wear on my nerves. I have been matron in the Indian School at Carlisle for three months and it seems such a relief. Wfrite and tell us about you and your heathen friends. . . LAURA. BUTTE, IVIONTANA. Deaf' Classmate.' I All I am and all I have accomplished in 20 years can be told by John D. Anthony and his six sons at their grocery store. 218 Chestnut Street, Butte, Montana. A RACHEL ANTHONY. NEw YORK CITY, N. Y. Deaf' M issi01fLa1'ie.' I Aren't you surprised to hear from me in U. S. A.? I suppose you believe that I am still in India. Sometimes I almost wish' I were. Now, old Prune, I can hear you fuss as all good missionaries would and I know you would scarcely believe it but I am on the stage. Isn't it a shock? Do you remember in,B. C. what an ardent movie fan your old friend was? You know I planned to go on the stage at that time. My husband was all that prevented me. Ch! I forgot to tell you that Fate decreed that the '4Deep Blue was none too small a distance to put between us and if you ever meet him at a clinic, inform him that his Hirst love is happy in U. S. A. MARGARET. SESKINAWAWA PATRICIA LAND, CAN. Dem' Roommate: I-Iere I am, enjoying the nrst vacation in 20 years. The abgve named place means nothing but loneliness and misery associated with a husband and ten chil- dren.. I have had ample opportunity to practice Adult and Infant Feeding, I-Iome Nuf'S1Ug 211161 First Aid. My knowledge of Vegetarianism I have never had oc- casion to apply sinceiour living is derived chiefiy from the Birds of the air, and the beasts of the fields. I can tell you, old friend, my ingenuity has been taXed more than once to supply more than the proverbial String of beads and sweet ' D ' - . . . . Smile for' ten children. I trust in my next incarnation I will be located 111 21 warmer climate. TILLE 68

q r Prophecy PEARL HEILBLIAN Dear Classmate: . JUXE ' 7 VVe are all back at the dear old San and it seems so natural and yet so unlike the old times. Some of us are staying at Cooper's Hall which is located where Arnold used to be and some at the Alpha Theta Pi which is Ashley remodeled and enlarged. 'There are only two of us absent. Lillian Erb was unable to comme. You know she married a E. minister and they were ordered to move to a new charge last week. With eight children and moving the poor girl simply couldn't get away. We all miss Miss Cooper so much. Miss 'Burgess is very well liked as a dean but she seems so different to us girls. Even the atmosphere of the office seems changed. . I suppose we all expected to see Miss Kilmer and all the teachers just as we left them twenty years ago. Some how one does forget that time flies. This has been a delightful week. Monday, we went to the Spring Lake for a picnic and who do you suppose came walking down the hill and into our party? Do you remember Dr Cooper's youngest son ack? Wfell it was he only he had grown to manhood and was wearing a heavy beard and mustache Tuesday we all went out to call on Dr Ixellogg You would be surprised to see how young he looks He is doing very little operating now and is seldom seen at the San Most of his time is devoted to writing and research work Wediiesday was Home Economics day and people from all parts of the state were present The large auditorium was crowded Qur school display was certainly worth while It has never been equaled in this state Miss Cooper arrived Vifednesday night VVe with the class of 1922 gave her a rousing welcome Of course the other classes weie as enthusiastic as we but somehow we felt since they had never known her that there was more of noise and less of love in their share of the gieeting She spent only lVednesday mght and Thursday with us and as usual was in great demand She was the chief speaker at the Alumni Banquet and told much of hei work as head of the Bureau of Food Inspection Xs the yeais pass and me hear and read of the wonderful things accomplished by this little woman for the benefit of humanity we are more and more impressed with the greatness of her who served so quietly and faithfully as dean of our school Tonight we are going to have a banquet of our own class with ieminiscences and then tomorrow we are going to oui homes Yesterday we were speaking of the good old times and the girls thought Nou would like to know what we were doing so each g11l is going to write you a line ' 7 JV ' I 7 - l I 7 . - ' 1 2 . . . - A . l , . . 7 l . , ' . f - f y r I - - o .

i GUATEMALA, GUAT12MALA. Dear Economist: I am attempting to teach this shiftless people the first principles of economy and at the same time demonstrating my ability as a home maker to the wifeless photographers of the city. NIAUDE Tkoonlz. MIARSEILLES, FRANCE. Deaf' P7 IfL116.' You never can guess what the years have brought to me. Bob Smith, the noted evangelist! Can you imagine anything more impossible? All my friends say, HI am an ideal minister's vvifefn I have changed some. We have just tackled the problem of eliminating liquor from France. Both Bob and I expect to ac- complish this in six weeks.
