Miss Schee- mal's private plane, having just returned her from one of those frequent but necessary trips to Ten- nessee to visit her sick grand-mother , is now on its way back to her luxurious home, Hide and Seek Farm .

Miss Helen Gaston arrived a few hours late as a result of writing lyric poetry in her garret overlooking -the Garonne.

She gave reports on the latest battle, Slaughter on Danville Road.
