When I was jwssing through a small country ' town in Idaho I came to a field „i strange plants. Some of them had long feelers which kept constantly lashing the air in search of food. 1 was about to turn away when a sign caught my eye: Professor Francis Keller, Professor of Plantology. 1 hurried up the walk until I came in sight of a large house, and there in the doorway stood the Professor himself.

The first afternoon that I was in Montana I visited the “Jolly Old Maid ' s Club. in I-—• Here 1 found Elsie Hamilton as president. Most of the old maids were driving in their electric auto, but Cleofa Champey and Alferctta Curlass, were there and I had a nice chat with them. They told me that Ella Berg and Ella Slingsby, who had always been v ery delicate ( ?) had gone to Mars for their health. Also that I -aura I.ambson had a candy factory in New York.

In Boston I was just in time to see Marie Gilbreath starring in. “Love in an Airship. On my way home 1 learned that Miss Finley was running a large orphanage. When 1 reached Rllcnsburg 1 was surprised to see Archie McDonald as chief instructor in Arithmetic and Algebra in the normal. Also Marguerite Heraity as chief instructor in Domestic Science. She told me that the work was so much easier since they had installed new electric stoves. The next morning 1 visited the school again and the principal kindly showed me all over the new additions.
