NVith entire coniclence that the Class ot 1926A would lend its loyal cooperation in this task, we accepted the responsibility with its attendant honor. This cooperation has been given with great enthusiasm, and we desire to express to each and every member our thanks and appreciation for the prompt and willing response that has met every request. VVe' sincerely hope that you will accept this compilation of class fact and fancy in the same spirit in which it has been written-that of royal good fellow- ship-and trust that as you turn its pages in the days of the future, it will recall to your mind the faces and foibles of your classmates. And then will come a sober second thought-a thought of gratitude to our honored teachers who have borne with us these four years. For their patience and forbearance as they have sought to instill in us a love for knowledge. Today our thoughts are light and free from care at the thought of graduating but as time goes on we will realize more and more how great an influence their efforts have had upon our futures. Our appreciation of their unselfish endeavors is sincerely acknowledged. Five TO RALPH L. BALDWIN, Mus. B. Director of Music H. P. H. S.

The principle of the survival of the httestu has been applied so well that you see only 175 of the original group gathered here tonight. The fact that we who are assembled have survived the rigors of extended courses in mathematics, science and languages indicates a four year career worth knowing about. VVe have elected representatives to tell you about it this evening. The chief events of our interesting history will be related to you by the class historians. Vlfhat will probably happen in the future no one knows, but two of our classmates are going to prophesy what they think the future holds for us. Many of you who are present may consider an essay dry, but when our essayist has Finished her address, I am sure your opinion will change. VVith what results our English courses have been pursued will be shown by the profound thought and eloquence of our class orator. Soon all of us are to take our places on the broad highway of life. Will the completion of our school work mean the termination of friendships which have grown up in past years? No, and it should not. To do away with any possibility of severing these ties, we have gathered here tonight. Friends, I extend to you, in the name of the class of 1926A, a most hearty welcome to these class night exercises. FRANCIS L. KEEVERS.

HE PRESENT REACTION of intellectual broadening and of revived fellowship among the nations of the world, hardened and calloused by the outburst of savage passions that ignited and burned into such a brutal conflagration, may well be termed The Dawn of International Peace. It is a dawn because the world has never passed through so gloomy, so dismal, so dark a night of history as it had during the five years of conflict between the great nations of the world. The attention, the study, the efforts, that nations are devoting now to the cementing of a bond of international peace, manifest clearly that physical violence and coercion, as a force in maintaining peace, has proved disastrous for the welfare of a human race whose intellectual achieve- ments, in the fields of education, industry, and science, has outstripped 'those of any decade in the annals of history. Arbitration is the force that now wins the hearts of men, it is the force which has won the laborer to the ready and loyal performance of his work, it has bettered the relations that exist between employer and employee, it has earned for the employer a reward that hundreds of years of driving and forcing failed to secure. And now it is arbitration alone, the loyal servant of justice, that will bind men to a solid, enduring, and acceptable union of world peace. Peace built on other grounds than this is like the house built on sandsg but if built on arbitration, no tempest of tyranny, no grasping out for unlawful power will shake it from its rock-bound foundation. And so the world court, like the sun that peeps over the eastern horizon with a world anxiously awaiting to receive its blessings of light and heat, rises in this dawn of inter- national peace. The VVorld Court is the realization of an idea originating as early as the year 1623. This idea has been developed until there is now in existence the present Permanent Court of International justice or the VVorld Court. Before discussing its merits and assets, I would like to show, to those unfamiliar with this leading topic of the day, of what this court consists and what its principal functions are. The sessions of the court are held at Geneva, Switzerland, where fifteen judges, four of whom are deputy or alternate judges, elected for a term of nine years, arbitrate on the cases of international interest brought before it. These judges are elected by the council or the assembly of the League of Nations apart from the League, and only those of high honor and character may hope .Siixfy CLASS BOOK OF 1926A gi? llIIIlIIIIIllllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllll Ill IlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIII IllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllll Illllllml IllIIllIIIIIll!lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll Illl to obtain this office. This fact we take great pride in because one of our own countrymen, john Bassett Moore, holds a position as judge of this great judiciary body, The court has many recommendations to give it a firm backing, It has already been ratified by live countries and in the United States every president from McKinley to Coolidge has been in favor of it. What greater recommenda- tion than this could an international project have? The American Legion also favors it and the U. S. Senate by favoring it would help pay the debt we owe the soldiers by satisfying their call for peace. In the interests of the U. S. in entering the VVorld Court, there has been developed the Harding-Coolidge-Hughes pact. In this are four conditions which state briefly: QU That any relation of the U. S. with the court does not connect it with the League of Nations. CZJ That the U. S. be allowed to assist in electing the judges of the court with the council of the League. C35 That the U. S. will pay a fair share of the expenses incurred by the court. C45 That the statute of the XfVorld Court shall not be amended without the consent of the U. S. This pact itself should remove all doubts of foreign entanglements from the minds of the opposition. The Wo1'ld Court has the power of settling international disputes with justice and brevity. The hopes and tireless efforts of peace-loving men for centuries have at last made the court become a realization. Let us hope we shall find our own beloved country entering into and co-ordinating with this greatest step toward international peace. LEO T. DUFFY.

ODAY in the midst of our rapid progress, presence of mind is a priceless quality. Far from being a liability, it is an invaluable asset. A recent cartoon representing a memorial to the last pedestrian emphasizes the necessity of presence of mind for people who walk on their own two feet. There does not seem to be a more trying task for any individual today than that of finding his way through the intricate maze of traffic. The go signal facing him, he is boldly starting from the curb when a honk, honk on his left brings him up sharply. He retreats with his heart skipping every other beat. For a moment he is angry. Then he realizes that a driver, in making a right turn, is quite within the law. Gathering up courage, this trembling individual ventures forth a second time, to go only half way across the street before the traffic officer, who happens to be facing the opposite side, changes the sign. just then he spies the adventurer and very unceremoniously escorts him back to the curb with fthe bright promise of arrest for jay vvalkingn if he is caught again, Indignation hlls the much-abused pedestrian but he resolves not to appear at all disturbed. Then he watches his chance, gives a swift glance to the left, sees that the sign is in his favor, and firmly crosses fthe street in safety. But not only in crossing does he have a difficult time, for attempting to catch a car is no easy task, especially during rush hours. Generally the automobiles are three abreast and he has to wend his way between purring motors and glaring lights. He sees four trolleys standing still. Finally he discovers that his is the last, and runs toward it. just as he reaches it, the door is closed, the car starts to move, and he is left dodging the stream of machines as they move in an endless line. At length the traffic is held up, and squeezing between the rear fender of one auto- mobile and the front bumper of another he reaches the curb. Wfalking to a stop- sign near a policeman, he breathes a sigh of relief, confident that now he will be able to make his -trolley car before its starts. Presence of mind is demanded of our drivers both day and night. Children often, when crossing the street, dart in the path of an oncoming machine. Alas, many of their elders are also quite as guilty. At such times quick manipulation of the wheel is a necessity. Then, too, on a hot day when many people are motoring to the seashore, each driver must be on the alert for any car which may chance to cut in. The lure of getting ahead is always a temptation for the owner of a powerful machine, especially if the preceding one is a Ford. Then Sixtgv-two CLASS Book OF 1926A llnnlllllllllllllllllllllll lll lnnlllullimvllml lll lllmlllulllllllllillllmmlll llllml mlllmlllllllmmllllllllmll m what dexterity must be used by the driver in swerving his car first to the right and then back into line again! In addition, if cars which have been traveling at a rate of thirty-five miles an hour are suddenly halted, it requires quick thinking for the motorist simultaneously to jam on the brakes and put out his left hand to warn the cars following. Vtfhen the siren whistles and a fire engine is seen racing up the street, our driver must immediately either stay where he is or draw close up to the curb, Presence of mind is needed even behind a drove of cows. Strange to say, although dogs, cats, and even chickens seem to sense the approaching danger when they hear the warning sounded by the horn, a cow is unconcerned. just as a driver feels sure he can go ahead, one or more of the drove is quite likely to cross the road. Think of the result if the car were not stopped instantly! Wfhile the warning for pedestrians is Beware of Dogs, surely for the tourists it should be Beware of Cows. Presence of mind is necessary in the home as well as on the road, In winter when the hot water boiler burst and the spouting stream is aboutito ruin the kitchen plaster and furniture, it requires quick thinking on the partof the house- wife to run down cellar and shut off all the water connections, Then too, there comes that telephone call which announcesthat some old college friends are in town for a short time. Prompted by her womanly hospitality she invites them to lunch. just as she replaces the receiver, she smells the cake burning and starts for the kitchen. VVhen she is half way down stairs, the door bell and tele- phone both ring. For a second she hesitates. Three things are happening at once! llfhich shall she attend to? First she rushes down to the kitchen, hurriedly removes the cake from the oven, then she hastens to the telephone, and lifting up the receiver asks to have the line held for a moment, and finally she runs to the door and opens it. Due to her quick thinking, in less than a minute she has accomplished three things. Even among children presence of mind is often shown. In a Sunday School class of children eight and nine years old was a little boy who wriggled on all occasions. One Sunday the lesson had been about David and Goliath. After the story was read, the little fellow became unusually restless and was on the verge of disturbing order. NVishing to avoid any trouble, the young teacher turned to the boy and said, Now -lohnny, you draw a picture of King David just as you think he looked. johnny was puzzled for a minute, then his face brightened and he commenced his task. Soon he finished the picture, and, with an impish grin on his face, handed it to his teacher. Unable to visualize David, he had used as a substitute the only picture which came to his mind. The drlawing proved to be a perfect reproduction of jiggs. It lacked only the corned beef and cabbage. Another instance of presence of mind used by a child has recently been reported by a grammar school teacher. Preliminary drill was being given in problems, some of which dealt with hgures, triangles, squares, rectangles, and I .S'i.1'ly-ll11'cc CLASS BOOK OF 1926A Q lllllllllllll H lllllllllllllllllllllllllll MIME Illlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll llll IlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIll Illllml IIIIIIIIIIIIHllllllIllllllllllllllllllllllllII IIIH oblongs. On the board was drawn a triangle. The teacher asked one little lad to explain what the class had learned about the hypotenuse the day before. He stood puzzled for a few moments, being at a loss for words. Finally he wrote White Street on one side of the triangle and Brown Street on the other side. Then he said, Well, it's this way. I 'most always go to school over VVhite Street and down Brown Street, but in this case I hopped over the back fence and took a short cut. The following instance shows how Abraham Lincoln met an emergency. As captain of his town's raw recruits, he was training the company in military tactics. One day as his men were marching, they approached a fence. All the spectators believed that Lincoln could get his squad of men over that obstacle in only a helter-skelter fashion, which of course, was not a military way of managing affairs. Lincoln himself was skeptical but, when he and his company had just reached the fence, a bright thought came to him and he gave the order Company fall out! Then smiling he said, Men, fall in on the other side of the fence! The value of presence of mind is incalculable when it prompts us to do the right thing at the right time, in the right place. It helps us to solve many diffi- culties. In brief, if we possess it, we can be reasonably sure to lead a safe and sane life. KATHLEEN B. DELANEY.

Enter Henry in breathless haste. Hemfy- Couldn't make it a minute sooner. Got a cipher and had an appointment with Mr. Hyde. Ruth- Funny how I guessed that. Must have been woman's intuition. Well let's start on the history and try to make it as interesting as possible. Henry- There certainly is plenty of material, but have you any new sug- gestions for a setting P Ruth- I thought of another setting but I don't know which is the better, yours or mine. NVell, we can think that over but we really ought to decide on our subject matter. Hemfy- The main object in writing this history, it seems, is to relate the most interesting and important events of our high school days. I suggest that we divide the material according to our four high school years. Ruth- Yes, that's a very good plan, I think. Well, the first thing we did was to enter as green little freshmen and gaze with wonder upon the walls of a real live high school. To go on, the school bank was started when we were freshmen. Henry.- So it was, but it didnlt get much help from me, you bet. Freshmen do not immediately acquire the knack of sharpening a pencil correctly and it took all my spare cash to buy new ones. Ruth- Never mind the high cost of schooling. That has nothing to do with the history. According to these notes everyone had money on the brain our freshman year. Anyway the Connecticut Company reduced the price of twenty car tickets from a dollar to eighty-five cents.

Their fathers had to pay for 'em anyway. Now here's something good. CReads from paper.j 'In 1922 a sort of questionnaire was sent around for the pupils to fill out and it was discovered that 350,000 was spent for candy and ice cream sodas. The girls spent about 312,000 for hair cuts.' Thatls not bad for such good-looking ' 11 girls. Ruth- Uri behalf of the girls, I thank you. I-Iere's a quarter. Uh by the way, I think the I-Iigh School radio is worthy of mention, don't you. You know the money for it was collected during a campaign managed by the Owlet, And then let's see-. Henry-QTO himselfj VVhen I say go, go, when I stay stop, stop. VVhen I say go- , Ruth- XNliat in the world are you talking about FH Henrj-'- NfVliere have I heard those words before? Somehow they remind me of Doctor Feingold. Uh sure, that's the little piece he always spoke when he gave us those intelligence tests. They certainly are the most foolish things I ever heard of. Imagine asking a full grown freshman whether Rosa Ponselle was a singer, dancer, actress or writer. Vtfhy, I always think of the name Ponselle. VVhat does it remind you of? Ruth- Pencil reminds me of a writer of course. Common sense would tell you that.'l Hem'y- Right-go to the head of the class. Now this is supposed to be the freshman year but I think it might be well to put the football games in here, don't you? All rightg here goes: In our freshman year the New Britain team came up looking for trouble and they got it. In other words, we licked 'em. In 1923 our team journeyed down to the I-Iardware City and just naturally made that team look like the end of a perfect day when it rains. I don't seem to remember much about the next year's game. Ruth- Tliat's just as well-you know we lost that year but we came back with a vengeance the last year. I know because I went to the game and I'll say it was worth being almost trampled to death by a New Britain horse to see the crestfallen expression on the New Britain cops' faces. Hem'y- VVell, time is precious and I'm afraid we haven't much more to spend on the freshman year. Wfe will end by saying that we were scared to death of our hrst examinations, but that we all passed except those who failed. That's saying quite a lot for our class. Ruth- One thing prominent in my memory about our sophomore year is the end of the confusion caused by the Wfeaver pupils. YVe were glad of their company, but just the same it seemed good to have them leave for their own new ' 1: l school on Ridgefield Street.

Although theyire coming along very well, in my estimation at least, they'll never be able to touch our own Hartford High. fLooks at note.j Say, here's something that might give us a clue. lThe freshman finds the high school, the sophomore lives in it, the junior advances it and the senior is the high school.' Rfuth- Good, The sophomore lives in it. All right. Only a few of the clubs were open to sophs but they got along all right just the same. Oh, yes, and I remember that Mrs. Lewis Rose spoke to the girls in assembly one morning and informed them that girls and women were forging ahead so rapidly that the boys and men would soon be forced to run to keep pace with them. Henry- lXIaybe you're right, but it's queer, because later, in our senior year, the boys dressed up and took girls' parts in 'The Missing Card.' If Mrs. Rose was right why didn't the girls do it ? Ruth--QGives him a look but does not answeiij VVe mustn't forget to put in that that play was given by the History Civics Club, which was organized in our second year. And say, don't you think the fact that we broke the New Britain jinx would bear repeating along in here somewhere ? Henry- Absolutely. Ukfalks around with hands in pocketsj It seems to me that I recall a period in that year when you girls meandered about the halls with a far-away look in your eyes. Raith.- I don't know what youfre talking about, I'm suref' Henry- I guess that was the time of that wonderful fashion show, when you ladies adorned yourselves in hats, coats and gowns furnished by the various department stores for the occasion. I wonder if there is anything else we ought to mention. Rzltlz- Well, here are two facts. An economics course was added that year and also Mr. Baldwin realized that we were capable of self-govermnent. Result: The monitor system instituted in the choir. All right so far ? ' Henry- All right. XNe're getting along fine this afternoon. There's plenty more to say, but I guess we'll call a halt here. I-Iere endeth the chapter of the sophomore yearf' Rmli- Ariel now, what's next on the books? You said that the junior advances the high school, didn't you? Wfhat do you mean by that F Henry- XNell, I mean that by belonging to many clubs and participating in school activities the junior does a great deal toward the advancement of the school. All clubs are open to juniors and those who are interested in languages may join the Spanish, Greek, or French Clubs, while the Hopkins and H. P. H. S. Debating Clubs welcome those fond of debating.

P. H. S. D. C. three times in succession. I Ruth- VVe girls had a debating club too. Don't forget that. Once we even debated on the merits of a dish-rag against those of a dish-mop. One of the girls suggested that the reverse end of a dish-mop is very useful in cleaning little boy's ears and she also said that-Z Henry- Ve1'y interesting I should imagine. Ruth- It was, and it was a little change from the regulation debates on coal mining or the problems of the VVorld Court. ,And the K. B. L. S., our sister literary club also held some very fine book discussions. They could make almost any book seem interestingf, Henry-CPolitely.j I should have enjoyed immensely a discussion of that recent and thrilling little story, 'Sink or Swim,' by Horatio Alger, jr. Rutii- Thei'e are also many other clubs which deserve a place in our Class Book, for instance, the Girls League and Boys Club, which did so much to promote good fellowship in the school. I went to several of the suppers and always enjoyed both the supper and the speaker. Hezfwy-- Yes, mostly the supper, I guess. Ruth-QLaughing.j At any rate we ended our junior year with augmented funds of knowledge and confidence and looked forward to becoming dignified seniors with much anticipation. Hemfy- Ah, at last we reached the pinnacle of our High School days. VVe were seniors and made our way about the familiar corridors in high elation, full of dreams of days past and days to come. Ruth--fGiving him a scornful look.j Save that -for the oratorical contest. We're writing the class history now. And speaking of oratory, that reminds me that we heard several good speakers during our senior year. How about Captain Armitage, and Miss English-Lillott, the young lady who recited james Whitcomb Riley's poems ? Henry- Yes, they were both very good, I thought. Capt. Armitage was the fellow who arrived in his new car of French make, Chevrolet-coupe, wasn't he? And Miss English-Lillott was the lady who calmly ate a nice juicy pear in front of us one fine morning. I don't care much for pears. Ruth--CLaughing.j 'KI-Im, I guess that's a case of sour grapes: QI,ooks at notes.j I have a note here about The New Poor.

Lelia Benedict and john Ahern were the bright lights in intellectual ability, both of them Capturing their share of scholarship prizes each half year.

The names of Shay, Lamoureux, Walsh, Pinto, Duffy, Carr, Counihan and joe Ring, the captain who broke the New Britain jinx permanently never will be forgotten by our class. Ruth- Well, let's see. QCounts on fingersj Speakers, rules, clubs,- -oh, I know, we've neglected so far to bring out the social activities of our school. For example, the Commercial Club dance, which was one of the best. Those club dances did much to add to our enjoyment of school lifef, A Henry-CLooking at notes.j For the first time in our history an interclass basketball team has been formed among the girls, according to this article from the 'Owletf Ruth- Let's discuss the 'Owlet' now. I don't know what I'll do without it when I leave school. It was so popular among the students that the 'Owlet' sellers at the doors used to be almost swamped with the nickels thrust hastily at them. Henry- None the less important but of an entirely different nature was the 'Chroniclef which was published monthly and contained the best literary work of the student body. Ruth-QLooks up at clock and starts in surprise.j My goodness, it's almost five o'clock. VVell, we're just about through and I've enjoyed these little reflec- tions, haven't you? I used to think of graduation as my dearest ambition, but now 'that it's so near, I seem to want to stick to anything that has to do with school. Henry-!'Yes, all that remains now is the ending. See how you like this: And now four of the best years of our lives must come to an end. We leave these familiar halls with regret and go forth to our places in life with a feeling of love and honor for our school. RUTH Ii. PHELPS.

I'd give anything to see that old gang of mine. CA door slams and Jessie entersj Jes.-Pardon me, but will you direct me to the salon? Syd.-Yes madam, take the staircase to your left and turn Jes.-Why Sydney Rome. Wfhere on earth did you come from? Syd.-Jessie Low ! And what are you doing? I am working my way around the world this summer. Jes.-VVell you see, I am going to Siberia to study the educational conditions there. Previous to this I have been traveling in several of the northern countries. I found them very interesting. Syd.-I was just thinking of our class. By the way, do you know that Russ Higgins is captain of this ship? And Charley Vtfhelan is the dish-rag prince. Jes.-Are they here? Syd.-You remember Gene Lamoureux, don't you? I-Ie was one of our great football players. VVell he is sucking lemons below stairs. Jes.-No, really? That reminds me that when I was in Paris about four months ago, I ran across Irene Fuller. You know she and Gene were quite chummy. She has a position as a model in Monsieur Shay's exclusive magazine where they sell the latest one-piece wraps and suits. I always thought that Dinny would turn out that way. You know he always liked the opposite sex. Syd.-I don't know anything about that kind of a magazine, butfI do know that Anna I-Iorn is the editor of the 'KI-Iartford Gossip Magazine.'7fI noticed by Seton ty CLASS BOOK OF 1926A Qglttlinnmlmilirulillrlunlmimuntmmmlilluululimm lllllllllllllllmwmflllllllll M HIIIHHWMM Illlllll l lll l lgig this paper that Helen Sternkopf is taking the leading part in The Sea Side Romance and Charley Vlfalker, who, even at this age is the idol of many a girl's dreams, is playing opposite her. Wlhile I think of it, Eleanor Paynter, who is now about six feet tall and by no means a light weight, is painting scenery for this same company which is headed by no others than Buck', Buckley and Noise, Bauer, quite a contrast. Uessie opens her purse to get her handkerchief and an envelope falls to the deck. Sydney picks it up and hands it to her.j Jes.-Oh! Here is a letter I received from Anna Kilby who is now a nurse at the Hartford Hospital. Don't you wish you were sick? She certainly sent me a great deal of news. Shall I read parts about the class to you? Syd.-Yes, indeed. les.-CSits down, glances over the paper and readsj : Dear Jessie: Perhaps you would be interested to know that Francis Keevers has been elected mayor of our city and Mary Lowe is to be his private secretary. He has appointed his old school friend, Pete Carr as the chief of police. II wonder if he is wearing that Beta Mu pin as a badge.l Henry Sobol, the great debater of old days, has certainly proved his political powers. I-Ie is now warming the judges bench at the City Court. joe Ring is the coach of the New Britain High School Team. You know Joe is quite a Red Grange. But still, Henney Wfalsh with his Hartford High Boys is running rings around Ring. Syd.-Gee! Shouldn't I like to see one of those games again. fes.-And you remember Gert Rulnick who was always talking about her rnan-well, she is now a sedate English teacher. lCould you ever imagine her calming down?l And Gladys Michaels, the best stepper in old Broad Street, is now teaching Spanish at the school on the hill. Ted Duerr is a prosperous farmer in that big town of Wlindham. Virginia Libby was at the Capitol Theatre the last of the week. Her show was very good, you know that she is earning a living behind the footlights. Jimmie McBride was also on the bill. I-Ie is still the big shot of olden days. I-Ie is a freak in the I-Iippodrome. I guess this is about all that would interest you. Syd.-That does bring back old memories. Wfhen we were docked at Madrid, I saw Charley Malone in the dungeon. I tried my best to get him out but was unsuccessful. I-Ie is the steward on the Leviathan. Jes.-- Abe I-Iaverback, who was always distinguishing the session room with his artistic ways, has mastered the art of sea paintings. I-Iis last painting is now being exhibited over the fish market in the Boston Branch.

Syd.-I have as much chance as Sap Sablican has in playing the shoe horn and Bull Montano has in tooting the water pipe in the SS-4 Airship orchestra. Jes.-That's a good one. It was Harry Sorenson. You know the shark at science. He has invented a new form of studying machine, which enables dumb people to get four A's. I also saw Horrors Duffy. He is a second Patrick Henry now. His great speech in the United States Senate won the Hibby Iibby Islands for us. And you know Mary Grifhng she certainly is making a name for herself. She recently won a National Beauty Contest and is now on her way to Hollywood. A second Ella Cinclersf' Ruth Austin, you know, the girl who was always laughing, well she is now the Countess Clifton Clifson Counihan. Syd.-Say, I met Pearl Schoen and Thelma Larrabee at one of the exclusive hotels in the Swiss Alps. Thelma has become well known as a poetess while Pearl is shaking her foot before the royalty there. Jes.-I understand that Sydney Schulman, as ambassador to China, has the Chinamen eating riceout of his hand. Syd.--Yes, and I met john Ahern, the live-wire of our class. He is meteoro- logist for the Gas Company. Jes.-Did you know that Lelia Benedict has opened a private school for girls? You know we did expect great things from her. I understand that Ruth Phelps is teaching History and Economics there, while Gerry O'Brien is acting as Dean. She certainly sets a good example. I received a big laugh when I heard that Mad Casey was taking a course in Nature at Yale. I think that was somebody's good suggestion and not her own will. CStriking eight bells.j Syd,--Oh, there goes eight bells-excuse me, it's my watch below. Jes.-Gracious, fancy your watch striking as loud as that! Curtain Prophet SYDNEY C. ROME.
