T H E P O S T Page Twenty-five Dreams of Yesterday QC SHAW! said my Aunt Tabithy. Have you not done with dreaming ? My Aunt Tabithy was one of those severe old-fashioned aunts, so often described in those typical New England stories. But my aunt was of the sweet yet severe typeg she thoroughly disliked dreaming and the non-practical things in life. This day of days I felt like dreaming a11d, as usual, took refuge in the attic. Wearily I climbed the stairs to our old garret with its big brown rafters and boards darkly stained from the rain storms of fifty years. The rain was pattering softly on the roof. I crossed to an old trunk against a small window and, opening it, found programs and remembrances of my school days.

For many years Aletha Beck had been private stenographer for the president of the First National Bank of Port- land. Varian Lee had edited many school papers and, at last, was retiring to read them. The two sisters, Pauline and Vera Pratten, had spent their years in teaching little children to become better citizens. As a governess for Mrs. Geo. A. Cornes, Beatrice Swan- son had fulfilled her duties most notably. David Stretch had written to his credit, Twenty Long Years as President of the Ellison-White Conservatory of Dancing. The singing stage had welcomed and thrust aside the voices of Fietta Wilken, Edith Sny- der and Bernice Mullen. Rose Borrelli was still a sedate person, but she had held the
