Legs a11d Long Trousers. I understand the comedy was taken 'from Bernice W'ilc0xson's new book, Long Skirts and Short Steps. This is only one of -the -many books that llernice has written. You stated in your letter that Mary Keegan had stopped to visit you while on her lycemn trip through the Southern countries. I understand that she is to be married to I. 0. Harper, who accompanies the troupe as platform manager. This must be a very romantic tour. I suppose you know that Paul Grant is superintendent of schools at Newton, Iowa, a11d Lorene Mctlarty is the commercial teacher there. They both were graduated from llrake Universit y. Mary and Leota informed me that Erma Louderback and Chloe Proctor had just received their nurses' diplomas, and that they expect to sail for England in two months to care for the Queen, who is going to be operated on for adenoids. Marvin Patterson is now the typesetter for the Needlecraft, that helpful magazine that all thrifty housewives receive. The other day I received a letter from Hazel Livingston, who is the wife of a prominent lawyer in Lancaster, and she tells me that Glen Post is now selling lVatkins Remedies in the northern part of Missouri. Hazel had just returned from Chicago. IVhile there she went through Sears, Roebuck K White's mail order house, of which Alfred White is president. She was invited out to his home, where llelen Waggener, his charming wife, entertained her royally. Lucille Rhodes Hopkins has probably left your home by this time. I wish you would send me some of her original cake recipes that she left with you. I presume she will like her new home in Toledo, Ohio, since two of her classmates have already settled there, Russell Allen and Ora Lough, who are the leading bankers of that city, owning the Toledo National Bank. I am so glad you forwarded me your letter from Louise NViseman, saying that she enjoyed very much her missionary work i11 Japan. I vi - ited your sister Hilda's classes yesterday. She had just returned from Peoria, Illinois, where she had been visiting friends. IVhile there she found that Claude Porter and Floyd Hubbartt both reside in that city. Floyd is the owner of a large farm machine manufacturing plant, and Vlaude is a prominent lawyer. As you have been on your chicken ranch for so long, I thought you would enjoy hearing about the old classmates. I must close and get Michael's supper because he is on night shift at the coal mine. I am looking forward to the class reunion at Phicago next summer. Yours sincerely, Alice Ethell Clancey, ' 1313 Flay St., Iles Moines, Iowa. IVritten by Alice Ethell and Rosa Horn. Page Twenty Five
