Unique and :attractive candles burning on every tableg fires roaring warmth and welcome in both pretty fireplacesg soft, mellow lights falling from amber-shaded lamps, comfortable chairs conveniently placed near reading lamps, attractive window seats and cozy cushionsg little birds singing happiness and mirth from their artistic wicker pcdestals daintily arranged about the room. The place seemed distinctly American, and reminded us of the Dutch Tea Room in Baltimore. Our order was taken, and we made ourselves comfortable, seated before the fireplace. Americans? Who can they be? came from a pretty voice back of the Japanese screen. If we were curious to see the owner of this voice, she was more curious to see us, for the proprietress of the Marionette Tea House, who emerged from behind the screens, was no less than Marion Drukker. Well, you can guess the rest. We were mighty glad to see her, and once again we related the. whereabouts of the different girls. It was Marion this time who imparted news of interest. Yesterday I had gone to my room, when the maid came up with a card bearing a name I had never seen before. 1 went down, and there stood Hanch. She looked as tall, stately and beautiful as ever. She is now living in Paris, having married one of the many men she met in Washingtong is now wife of the Ambassador to France. And Trissy lives here, too. She was left a vast for- tune, and came to France to study organ. She is doing wonders, and they promise great things for her. Having heard that Judy was coming over to visit Hanch the following month, we decided to have a reunion in the form of a surprise for her. Plans were made and invitations sent out, and after a pleasant evening with Tris and Marion we departed from this land of exquisite dreams, carrying with us pleasant preconcep- tions of our future festive gathering. q 'lj ' V I v 4 B i Ei fm an d1919Ie W- -an M .. f ,, r gfclcb Eighty-Four

I could think of only one girl whose health was greatly impaired by overwork at Maryland College, so I named the 98-pound prodigy of our class-Marion Pugh Yes, I was supervising some classes there and met her in the hotel. She came abroad on her honeymoon, and the climate here agreed with her so well that she has been here ever since. She is looking line and weighs about 175 pounds. This was the extent of Peg's knowledge of the members of our class, so I proceeded to tell,her of the information I had gotten from a Baltimore paper about Gordy, and read her the following article: Young Maryland Girl Receives Great Honor.-Miss Gladys Gordy, well- known Eastern Shore beauty, today received the great honor of Judge of the Supreme Court of Maryland. After graduating from Maryland College for Women she completed a law course at Johns Hopkins, was admitted to the bar at the November term of court, and as counsellor at the February term of court. This promising young lawyer is recognized throughout the State, and we attribute her unusual success to her splendid training as ' of her Alma Mater? This was welcome news to both of us, and we were very proud of the suc- cessful careers of the members of our class. I almost forgot, I continued, to tell you that I saw the Linthicums last month on an entertainment circuit of the Y. M. C. A., giving a clever dancing act President of the Student Council in vaudeville. The Linthicums dancing ? Yes, and they said that 'Mac,' who married an Earl, is now posing for a fashion show in Paris. Their time was limited, so I didn't see them long, but learned in that short half hour that Maerker was applying her Domestic Science in helping the Government as a member of the Food Administration in Europe, and that Gunby was an enthusiastic and successful journalist, representing the Baltimore Suu at the League of Nations. This exhausted my discoveries, so we a J , g afternoon in Paris, where we had planned to celebrate our chance encounter. d'ourned reatly anticipating the next A cloudy morning gave us warning of a dull day, but we proceeded. By the time we reached Paris the rain was falling heavily, and gave evidence of continu- ing throughout the night. The dampness and chill which accompanied it were not the best stimulators for cheer and good times. The fog was thickening, and we could hardly see ahead of us. We had planned a lark, but, truth to tell, by then we surely felt like bluejays. We had not gone far when the heavy black rain clouds hovering low in the sky suddenly broke forth, and torrents of rain de- scended upon us. Fate helped us seek refuge in a little tea house across the street. This little place, compared to the cold, dreary world outside, seemed no less than an ethereal fairyland. It was the cheeriest place I had seen since leav- I iw fm fliawlfm L an Eighty-Three E is il El C El Ei Fl la H if L and
