Amelia Hall is the first woman to complete a tour of the world on a bicycle. VVe encountered Millie in a cloud of dust along an unfrequented road in Arabia last year. It was a very hot day, but under the grime and sweat of miles of cycling Millie's face wore a happy smile as she fell off her bike in her surprise at seeing us. We found Norma Hickey on the bench of a Los Angeles court room. lfVho would have thought that this lady in her impressive cap and gown could have been in Firland days one of our best candidates for an ideal future wife and homemaker. But fate had different plans and now our little Norma is a judge in a Domestic Relations Court, teaching other people what she has always known instinctively herself about the rules for domestic bliss, and trying to patch up ship-wrecked marriages. lfVe met Elsa Thomsen on the Seattle wharf where she was superintending the loading of her supply boat. VVe accepted with delight her invitation to sail with her to visit her island. Yes, Tommy owns a beautiful little island of about 100 acres in Puget Sound where she is happily engaged in raising chickens and chil- dren. She has three adopted children and says that if the chickens lay as well next year she will adopt three more. Lucky children, with Tommy for a mother and a little Garden of Eden all their own to grow up in. The fame of Eo Priem is well known to all of you as I know you do not miss one of the talkies in which she is starred. But in the midst of your happiness in applauding our Eo, stop to shed at least one tear for Greta Garbo, who is now an obscure member of the bread line.

I know you will be glad to hear that Amye McKee has not only overcome her fear of dogs but has gone to the other extreme and is now the celebrated Lady Lion Tamer of Barnum QQ Bailey. You should have seen,Mackey standing fearlessly in the cage fshe even scorns to use a whipj. Three famished and enraged lions bounded in with a roar and straight for Mackey. They caught one compelling glance of her eye and straightway wilted. QThe crowd yelled their approvalj You can imagine our sensations-we -who had beheld this same lady frozen in her tracks at the mere appearance in her path of a playful puppyj Alverta Mills is sticking with her profession and is very much in the fpublic eye. The Lindberghs had decided to take their baby with them hereafter when they Hy, so advertised for a good nurse, one level-headed and not afraid to Hy. Gut of 150 applicants Alverta landed the job and has been where she has always enjoyed being, i. e., up in the air, ever since. Marie Eichacker is in a rather unusual business. She has patented and perfected a new type of reducing corset, has a little factory in Chicago and agents all over the United States.

The exceptional psychic power which Grace Ring disclosed when at Eirland, fortune telling in tea-leaves, has led her to the crystal-gazing profession, and so acute have been her prophesies that even the diplomats of some of the leading courts of Europe have not disdained to ask her advice on important matters of state. For obvious reasons, she has asked us not to disclose her pseudonym or whereabouts. Eirland rejoices with Norway that another of her daughters has excelled all others and is said to haxe a voice equal to that of her countrywoman jenny Lind. Wfith 4000 others we heard Prudence Ulvestad in a new opera house in Seattle. She has revived the popularity of all of .lenny Lind's songs of the North with so great a success that King jazz has been forever dethroned. Doris Edwards is the wife of a country doctor in a peaceful New England valley. She and her husl'and are known and loved throughout the country-side for their kind hospitality and willingness to lend a helping hand to all. Besides performing her duties as an expert home maker and loving mother of four children she is always ready and willing to accompany her husband wherever a nurses help is needed.
