line was Miss Beverly Bourdeau, Private Secre- tary to Stanley Cullen, Esq., President of the New York Electrical Company. Beside Bever- ly's card was that of Marjorie Gray. She was employed by Hiram Towle's Insurance Com- pany. The next card held no information we didnit know. It was Alberta Kingis. Alberta had stayed in good old St. A. and was a stenog- rapher at Wallaceis Non Smelling Chewing Cum Corporation. Next we found that Hall's Escalator Company in California had sent two representatives, Carmen Berger and Ramona Reed. Carmen told me that Budis idea of hav- ing an escalator company had started when he was a senior in B. F. A. He had become ex- hausted o11ce too often from climbing many hills. We finally arrived at our seats. As I sat down, I noted the occupant of the chair beside mine. He must have felt my stare because he looked up from his task of writing and I immed- iately recognized Spider Earle. Norman was president ot the International Research Com- pany. One of the companyis present projects was the manufacture of stockings and veils from spider webs. C-ruesome occupation I must say, very profitable however. The vice-president, I learned was Normanis old classmate, Louis Shepard. Also employed in the company were 'jane Bechard and Helen Giroux. jane worked in the oiiice and Helen in the lab. Everyone became quiet. The meeting was starting. But before the program began, the scene shifted and I saw Ellen and me rushing down a busy street. We were still in Chicago. We stopped to admire and comment on all the store displays. We were approaching a quaint shop when we met two old friends, jane Domey and Sammy Brigham. Sanford had just finished supervising the construction of a seventy story building. jane was modeling in one of Chica- gois most exclusive shops owned by Natalie Earle. The shop specialized in the sale of mink coats, made from hides which came from Nan's long desired mink farm. jane called our attention to a book in a store window. It was entitled, The Mystery of Mac- bethis Third Murder written by Gladys Clark. This was wonderful-at last I would know who that third murderer was. As we strolled up the busy thoroughfare, our attention was attracted by a long queue of people. They couldnit be waiting for nylons or cigarettes because they were plentiful now. Curiosity got the better of us. We joined the line of waiters. Finally after a long, tedious hour we found ourselves in front of a huge building. In bright lights gave us our answer. Last presentation tonight, concert by the Misses Polly Mcliillop and Margaret Dixonf, We were Page Twenty-Two escorted to our seats by a beaming usherette. The lights in the hall were dim. We sat down to wait quietly. But we were not silent long. Down the isle came a group of ladies. One was talking excitedly-that voice, that laugh,--you guessed it-.Ieannete Carceau. Her companions were Connie Bessette, Cheral Sweet, and Ioyce Wells. -Ieanette, Connie, and Cheral were tele- phone operators. Ioyce was phys ed instructor back in old B. F. A. She had been coaching the basketball team for five years. The success of her coaching was indicated by the fact that all the members of the team were wearing basket- balls engraved with State Championship? The girls informed us that they had been talking to Shirley Dennis. She had flown from Vermont with Kay VVillis and Carolyn Peabody to attend the concert. Of course they had a re- served box. After all Shirley was governor of Vermont and her two companions, well known state senators. This trio had done much to im- prove conditions in our state. Before we had time to talk more to our friends, a mist blotted out everything. As we boarded the plane, we were confronted by Madeleine Bertrand and Mae Trombly. Both were taking a vacation and were on their way to Alaska. They operated a personality school in New York, where they taught sociology, per- sonality improvement, manners and all things necessary to make a success of the modern girl. When we took our seats, we found some- one had left a newspaper. The title caught my attention, St. Albans Evening Mercury and the managing editor was Anna Bushey. The plane was ready to take off-suddenly we heard a frantic shouting and calling. Two ladies were running toward us. I at once recog- nized one of them as Sylvia Weston. When the pilot saw them, he immediately stopped. Indeed he had to, for the lady with Sylvia was Char- lotte Morse and this was a branch of the Lyle Iacobs' Airline. When the girls were safe in their seats, we found that they were employed by the airline. Charlotte was Lyleis private sec- retary and Sylvia was paid a big salary to go on sjxecial trips just to furnish an atmosphere of goo humor and fun. The plane lifted off the ground and we were off. The clouds enveloped us. We were on our way home. It could be that I was but dreaming Of viewing that wondrous scene, But it may have been truth for the future That my soul was allowed to glean. But that, my friends, is the story, And I pass it on to you, And now we must wait for the future To see if these dreams come true.
