As we journeyed down the street we noticed a little dog running for its life and Mabel said, '6Let's stop and see whose it is. There was an elderly man who seemed intent on catching the dog. As he passed we recognized Cecil Smith, whose hobby was raising Airedales and French Poodles, which were to his way of thinking the most beautiful creatures in exist- ence. Then we heard a rattling and a banging and saw the dog catcher and his assistants coming 'down the street in the dog wagon. As they drew near we saw Angus Gibson and George Lee, who apologized to Mr. Smith and the incident seemed closed. At the next corner there was a sign which told of a revival meeting, to be held at 3 :35 P. M. We dropped in for a moment and could hardly believe our senses when we discovered Alvin Bullock giving his daily sermon on the sinfulness of the people. As our gaze wandered over the congregation we could pick out faces of our old comrades. The first to attract our attention was Phyllis Harvey, whose life aim was to care for the crippled soldiers. Grace Johnson was also there, listen- ing peacefully to the sermon. As we had soon heard enough of th.e impressive sermon, we left and returned to our new home. That evening as time hung heavily on our hands Leita proposed a vaudeville show and I fell for the plan immediately. When buying the tickets Leita poked me and asked, lsn't that Park Guynn?,' And there he stood with his bride of ten years before leaning on his arm. We -.11-.

He said he was now chief street-sweeper of Durham, and doing well. VVe bade them good-bye and went in to see our friends, Una Mathews and Hazel Tabe.r, who because of their sweet dispositions thought they could make a success of the candy business. They were fat and prosperous, and delighted to see us. VVhile we were there Florence Camper, Nelle Bass and Bess Meade came in. They said that they had started a girls' seminary in what had once been the Bidwell Mansion and were making a success of it. A We said good-bye to Hazel and Una and went out to see their seminary. It was nice and clean and the children seemed to enjoy the life. f Leaving the seminary we went on down the street and' read an advertisement saying that an exhibition of swimming would soon be held. The building was very large, with striking posters in the front showing the different positions in diving. 'We recognized one of the posters as Sue Canfield in a very daring costume. We gasped and went in. WVhen. we entered we met Jessie Bowen and Phyllis Power, who were gazing entranced at the marvelous costumes and the diving of the daring Venuses. VVhen we left the swimming exhibition and went down the street our at- tention was attracted by the cry of Buns and hot weenies, fresh and steaming. Step this way and try one. VVe thought somehow that the voice sounded familiar, and turning around saw a noble looking man and his beautiful wife and several darlings, selling those delicious buns and hot dogs. As we reached the stand we gasped for breath. There were our old friends, Bud and Mary. - We congratulated Mr. and Mrs. March on

After we had entered a smartly clad usher took us to our seats, and who should it be but Dan Messinger! Soon the lights went out and the curtain rose. The first act on the program was acrobating and tight-rope walking by Letha Schultz. Old Schulzie walked the rope without batting an eye. She was ex- ceedingly thin because of her many disappointments in love. Helen Kunkel and Reine McCampbell were of the same group. . ' Lois Washburn next appeared in a scream, entitled, How To Get a Fellow and How To Keep Him. The young things in the audience gasped as they drank in this wonderful secret, and Anna Belle Compton eagerly took down the recipe, thinking that there was still a chance for her. The next on the program was a snake dance by Mary Perkins, who was considered the greatest vampire, not excepting Theda Bara. Marvin Deter, who was her husband, was suing for a divorce on the grounds of fickleness. Mary had refused to give up her life work, but unless she would give up that life of folly Marvin's life was void of all happiness. Vlfe looked at each other and sighed, for we remem- bered our unromantic life. But we didn't have much time to pine over ourselves, because the dramatic act of Cleopatra and Mark Antony was on the stage. XVe quickly recognized Cleopatra as Daphne Clark, and Mark Antony as our old friend, Harold Wfhite. lVe could see that the love making wasnit all acting, for it
