up school work. She has become especially proficient in ira thematics and has given the world several new geometry theorems It is said that she and Bill get together once in a while for the purpose of working on the afore mention- ed theorems, but this is to he expected since they were such good friends when in school. Three or four blocks to the right of the Institution of Mental Develop- ment stands another tall, handsome building, The House of Rest,” and is as its name suggests, a hotel. It is the finest hotel in the west and has as- tablished a name for itself that will never be forgotten. It was built and has been operated until recently by the former Miss Ethel Galey who has al- ways been a splendid hostess and was never happy unless surrounded by a group of visitors. After several years of managing The House of Rest,” Ethel fell for one of the more famous of the guests and changed her name. She is now living in a big mansion, but she still owns the hotel and you see her some- where around it almost every day. I suppose you people wonder what I am doing on top of this mountain and what I have accomplished in all of these years. Well, I haven’t done any- thing and at the present time I am a traffic cop directing the airplanes, both freight and passenger, as they go by, for this happens to be on their main traveled road.

Prince tal to All at once lights, formed into a giant star and colored like a rainbow, blaze up over the very center of the city Without glancing at my watch, I know that it is now nine o’clock for Hope Ristine never opens the Star Opera House at any other time. Years ago, not so many at that, Hope was one of the beauties of the agee and became one of the most artistic ballet dancers the world had ever seen. She spent many years in Europe and it was only just in recent years that Hope abandoned her public career, came back to Buffalo and financed the Op- era House. The phenomenal growth of our community is due largely to her efforts, as her great beauty and the excellent programs which she puts on, draws people from all over the world. In no oth- er city of the United Sta bes or Europe, can so many famous musicians, dancers and other artists be found as in ours and the people as a whole have really began to appreciate the worth and value of their work. Miss Ristine, although she has had several notable love affairs, one with a famous bank president, has never married. It seems that she has never been able to find a Charming to suit her varied taste or, perhaps she is too temperamen- suit the men. Lillie May Hammer, about ten years ago, became the world?s champion debater. After acquiring all the fame possible in this line, she returned to her home city and has become active in the political field. It took much persuading on the part of Miss Hammer’s friends before she decided to take up this work but finally she agreed and now has become the progressive mayor of our industrious city She has a very bright future ahead and it is predicted that she will he the governess of our state and may fin- ally reach the position, first woman president. Many Buffalo have been due to methods. She has developed the marvel trict and and be honored as our of the improvement of our mayor’s efficient a police force that is of the state. There is no tenement dis- the streets are so well lighted that it is difficult to tell night frorty day. On the eastern end of this wonderful city may be seen a great, white, marble building some forty or fifty stories in height. It is the Institution of Mental Developement and is presided over by Gladys Oliver the most prom- inent educator of our time. Even while going to high school, Gladys gave promise of the glory to be hers and many are the algebra and geometry stu- dents she helped over the hump in those days. Being of a sympathetic nature and finding a certain facination in being of assistance to people, she took
