How that boy can play the sax, but I fear that he still misses the lesson from the correspondence school that was lost in the mail, for he still leaves out notes here and there. Then there was Jack Meany. It seemed that all had gathered to do honor to Dick and the horse. Sad, though, for Jack has a drawback with his voice as Tom has with the sax. It seems that Jack left his voice on the piano one day and the dusters not recognizing it brushed it to the floor and it has been cracked ever since. All in all it promised to be a very successful affair, yet I could not wait for the end, as I had promised to attend Frank Tooley's revue. When I reached the theatre I was approached by a ticket scalper, John Clark, who tried to sell me a 36.00 ticket for 38.80, but I fooled him: you see I had a pass, and all his persuasion went for naught. It was a good show even to the smiling head usher whom I met after the show, .for it was my old class- mate, Jimmie Meade. After I bid Jimmie good night I made my way home. It had been a busy holiday with all the meetings that I had come upon, and I needs must get some rest before the trying work of tomorrow. I had much to do on the morrow. many important duties, not the least among them being the securing of a suitable companion and substitute for my poor Felix, who as you remember had died while experi- menting with the Radiovisor. Yet much as I regretted the loss of Felix, I feel sure that this tale of my meetings with the classmates would never have been told if Felix had not experimented. A A I 'E -we I ' - 1 - , X 1..
