TELEGJKAMS OF KEG3i'iE'lJ 'ffjjtass !j3RQa-sEc'lYW Last night as I sat thinking of the class reunions we hope to enjoy together in the future, I found myself imagining the result if, at some given date, say ten years from now, every member of the class should be too busy too attend the reunion. That would, of course, be rather discouraging to the chairman of the committee, unless ,he, also, were too busy too attend. But, I thought how interesting if on the morning of the reunion each absentee sent a telegram in which was stated the sender's occupation and reason for absence. And how very inter- esting if these telegrams were collected in a little book and passed about so that all the class members might get first hand information about the others. I became so engrossed in the idea that I even pictured to myself the exact wording of' the tele- grams the various people would send. Would you like . to hear them? Leading dramatic soprano Metropolitan and Chicago C, Opera Companies. Substantial, but not fat. Sing Marguerite tonight. Anna Mae Bethe You wouldn't expect her to count her words, but she is evidently still careful with her calories. As an astronomer, am studying the heavens at seashore with beautiful girl assistant. Stargazing date tonight. , Donald Ray Silks At his old tricks, you see. Am an usher in big movie theater. Only way ' to. see all shows. Seeing Van Johnson tonight. Virginia Engelhardt And she probably enjoys the picture the twentieth time she sees it as well as the first. There's a girl who loves her work. S Civil engineer. Tunneling Rockies to shorten trip for Hollywood commuters. Bobby Schultz You notice Bob used just ten words and no more. '.Careful as ever, but I'll bet 1t's a good tunnel.

7' H., Vffigi'-f fd H rg .yt X Ka ... f' .J .J iw H lhdff Lu, cow To. Am designer of cross word puzzles, magazine covers, and necmne patterns. Most complete designs for holiday gift ties showing Christmas bill motif. Dorothy Kohlmeyer That's queer. She must have meant bell motif. We're all familiar with Christmas bells, but bills--Well, we are ao- quainted with Christmas bills, too, I'm afraid. I guess it doesn't matter which she meant. The necktles will look about as bad with either, no doubt. Am author of two of the six worst sellers up ' to date. Must finish a third by the first of the month so have to miss reunion. If any of you carry a spare plot with you, please loan it to me. Need one badly. Robert Ralph , I always knew Robert would be famous. D1dn't you? Think of two worst sellers and another on the way! Am instructor in plain and fancy golf, making lots of money. Five dollars a lesson. Also give bridge and oil painting lessons to spectators between golfing efforts. Am starting a series of evening dancing classes tosnight, so am unable to attend reunion. Carolyn Besing Carolyn always was the most industrious person in the class, and she evidently hasn't changed any. She d1dn't tell us what she was doing mornings. Surely she doesn't waste them Perhaps she takes in washing or gives boxing lessons then. Just Joined the Navy to see the world through a porthola Shall think of you all in every port, as I walk through the slums and see the peculiar people. Donald Hammel I don't think he meant that quite as it sounds, but merely that he would be homesick in those queer places and wish to see his friends. Donald is so ambitious he'll prob- ably be an admiral by the time the fleet gets to Manila. 1
