program we saw at the head the name of Arthur Younglove as leading man. The first violin of the orchestra was played by another of the class of ’19, Irene Hardy. After the play we went to speak to both of them and they seemed as delighted to see us as we were to see them. Arthur told us that James Lamport was a great lawyer, now living in Michigan. We also learned that Roy Chatfield was now studying in a theological seminary. 3 o o n □ □ p p p p p p n P p p n We were succeeding fine, and although we had no idea of where to go next, we thought we’d sail somewhere, so we started out and just as we had gotten well into the country, one of the screws of the mech¬ anism of the machine refused to work and we rapidly descended and alighted right at the door of two other pupils of the class of ’19. These were Hazel Mills, who is the wife of Myron Kinney, a prosperous young farmer living near St. George. She told us that she had that very day received a letter from Marjorie Hall, who lived in Los An¬ geles, Cal., and that Marjorie could write of nothing but the beauties of the place and “Him.” Of course we were both interested in who “Him” was and were not at all surprised to hear that it was Ray Chatfield. She told us that Ida Gilliland was still Ida Gilliland, simply because she couldn’t decide which to take. We remained for dinner, but immediately afterwards set sail for Indiana. Over one town the smoke hung in such huge clouds that we thought about half the town must be afire. We descended and found however, that it was only the smoke of a “Lamp Chimney Factory,” of which Roy Hess was the proprietor. As we had always been curious concerning this far-famed place, Alexandria, we stopped to explore. While here Violet received a letter from Opal Simonds, who, having finished her studies, had made application for a position in the quartet of the concert company of which Violet was a member. Of course Violet said she would see that she received the position, as it would be so nice to have her as one of that “Merrie Companie.” We learned that Henry Seavey was superin¬ tendent of the Illinois Electrical Railway Company, is married, and is happy; also that Oswald Brown had just completed a new geometry book and had proved several new propositions; John Cook, one of our famous basket ball players, was still living in Grant Park and was pre¬ siding over a domestic science class there. Opal’s letter also stated that Kathryn Hobbie and Georgia West were acting as models in one of the famous stores in Paris, and that Martha Conrad was at present on duty as Red Cross nurse in the German army. She said that Frank Tomas was now captain of the basket ball team of Yale College, and that John Condon was acting as coach. Florence Logan has become the wife of an Italian musician and they are now spending the sum¬ mer at their beautiful summer home in Italy. o But what had become of two of our famous classmates, Edward Bydalek and Harry Shaffer? We were relieved to find that Edward was a bachelor and was residing on a farm near Hopkins Park, and that Harry is also a bachelor and is at present residing in Palestine. Why, we had finished our task! All the members were accounted for. We sailed home, exchanging reminiscences of the dear, by-gone days of our High School life, and marveling at the success of each member of the wonderful class of ’19. oiziE3.rnaizi?
