That would, of course, be rather discouraging to the chairman of the committee, unless she, also, were too busy to attend. But, I thought, how interesting if on the morning of the reunion each absentee sent a telegram in which was stated the sender's occupation and rei n for absence. And how very interesting if these telegrams were collected in a little book and passed about so that all the class members might get first- hand inform tion about the others. I became so engrossed in the idea that I even pictured to myself the exact wording of the telegrams the various people would send. Would you like to read them? 1. CIVIL ENGINEER. TUNNELING ROCKIES TO SHORTEN TRIP FOR HOLLYWOOD COM UTERS. KARL SASSE You notice Karl used just ten words and no more. Careful as ever, but I'll.bet 1t's a good tunnel. 2. LEADING DRAMATIC SOPRANO METROPOEQTAN AN CHICAGO OPERA COMPANIES. SUB- STANTIAL BUT NOT FAT. SINGNMARGUERI 'TO-NIGHT. ARDIS LINN You wouldn't expect her to count her words, and she doesn't, but she is evi- dently still careful with her calories. 5. AS AN ASTRONOM R, AM STUDYING THE HEAVENS AT SEASHORE WITH BEAUTIFUL GIRL ASSISTANT. STAR GAZING DATE TO-NIGHT. RAYMOND ZWYER, At his old tricks, you see. 4. AM AN USHER IN BIG MOVIE THEATER. ONLY WAY TO SEE ALL SHOWS. ANNA MAY BARTON And she probably enjoys the picture the twentieth time she sees it as well as the first. There's a girl who really loves her work. 5. CONDUCTOR ON THE BROADWAY LIMITED AND DOING IT SOLELY TO MEET FAMOUS PAS- SENGERS. LOU GEHRIG, GRETA GARBO, JOE LOUIS AND THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES ARE ON THE TRAIN THIS TRIP. RAYMOND MATZINGER Raymond always did like good society, but I never thought of him being a Pull- man conductor to get it. 6. KEEPING A PET SHOP. SPECIALIZE IN EELS, ICHNEUMONS, AND ELEPHANTS, SORRY CAN'T COM TO-NIGHTg EXPECTING NEW SHIPM NT OF JAPANESE BEETLES. VIRGINIA FRANKLIN Well, at least she said she was sorry she couldn't come. 7. AM A FARMER. RAISE WINTER WHEAT AND SUMMER SQUASHES. CAN'T COM BECAUSE AM BUSY WITH HARVEST. RUSSELL WILDER There's something queer about that, but I'm not just sure what it is. I sup- pose Russ is a very scientific farmer and knows all about rotation of crops md everything. I wonder if he raises shorthorns? I never can remember whether they are cows or turnips, but he probably raises them, anyway. 8. AM CHAUTAUQUA LECTURER ON WBEAUTIES OF NATURE,n AND NTHE VALUE OF SM LE. ' SORRY CAN'T COM g THE WSMILEN DUE TO-NIGHT. VIRGINIA WOODS I always knew Virginia would do something like that. But where she learned about the beauties of nature I'm sure I don't know. When we last saw her she didn't know parsley from peppermint or toads from tadpoles. She must have been doing a lot of reading lately. 9, AM A LADY MISER. TAKE IN HO SE CLEANING AND FURNACES TO TEND. WANT MONEY TO BUY A PEARL NECKLACE. CAN'T COM g MY BUSY NIGHT. MARY WEBER Ambitious, but far too fond of jewelry. She probably has a waiting list of furnaces to tend. --M 'v A- .A-...... .......ua
