ton, and what do I see staring me in the face on Penn- sylvania Ave., but ED. WOLFE DEARMON. Architect, Rooms 505-506 Trust Building, Washington, D. C. Idecided to take a little time anyhow and go up to chat with Ed. and attempt in the meanwhile to find some- thing about Wayt and Dewitt. Ed. seemed very glad to see me, and beforel knew anything a half an hour had slipped away, but nevertheless I obtained information that Wayt was a prominent detective in the service of U. S., and that Dr. Austin was Head Surgeon of Johns Hopkins. However, this is no time for philosophizing for about a thousand miles away I spy my dearest old girl, Louise, entering a grand mansion with the 400 of New York City. Hump, groaned some one close to me, they think they are something. But to me they were considerable and I wasn't at all surprised to see Louise there if she still possessed those cunning and attractive ways of yore. Back across the sea for me. but hey! who is that walking the deck of the North Atlantic, and bearing that dignified air as if holding a commanding office, but Ad- miral Ulhman Seymour Alexander.

I did but just have time to shake hands with my old pal and go jogging on' my way, but at the same time this seemed hard for I was so close to dear old Charlotte. i It is sad. I turn my eyes towards the country for a rest. But there is no rest, even out in Korea, for the first thing discernible in the ploughed lands is an old C. H. S. lover. Mary Smith is pushing a plough of goodness, and one from whose seed planting can one day be reaped souls for Christ. Instinctively I mop my forehead. Er, beg pardon, er, what isn't this Kate Squires? Will Carr, holy smoke I Er, Kate, why er, what are you doing in such a pitiable plight, ahem ? Kate shakes her head sadly as she answers: It is too long to tell, but the substance is that I thought I appreciated literature. I read Milton's Minor Poems and Lamb's Essays of Elia, and here I am, an old maid, and apt to die one. Will, pray what are you doing as Prof. of English at Yale College? Well, er, it is just this way: I have them fooled. Away! away! An ideal I now turn my glass over into another continent. But ho! who is this riding the Monorail in Heidelberg, where he has his headquarters, more than one of my old classmates of 1911, Edward. I next have the privilege of gazing upon one of the prettiest weddings Cin the Methodist church in Philadel- phial I have ever witnessed.
