I have been reminiscing lately, so I was delighted to know what so many of the class of ,37 are doing. I had a letter from Jennie Swett a few weeks ago. She is still teach- ing at Nasson College, and is at the head of the Home Economics De- partment now. She said that Mim Tucker had been visiting her taat week. I suppose you know that c'Tuck is assistant to Adrian. Re- member the original gowns she designed while at school? Dot Webbei' is certainly following in Cornelia Qtis Skinner's foot- steps. She is known as Dorothy Ellen to her radio audience. Inci- dentally she is one of the best paid radio stars in the United States. I had dinner with Dot Begg at her home in Yvest Cults, Scotland, last month. She is very happily married to an artist, whose paintings of Scotland have become very well known. We spent hours talking about college days. Remember lVIarion Anderson and her penny bank? iVVith the help of a few nickels and dimes she finally saved enough money to buy the much talked of Clipper ship. At the present time she is on a trip around Cape Horn. Cf course Emma Colby has been married ever since we graduated, but she couldn't give up her career. She is secretary to the President of the Goodall Mills. Ruth W7inget is Head Dietitian at St. Luke's Hospital in New York City. ' f50l

THE BROKEN-HEARTED HOUSE AT CONCORD The house stood sad and lonely against the bleak and dreary sky. The doorway was lonely and silent, for the warmth of welcome was lacking there. Perhaps this house once held a family with its ties of love, happiness, and tender care. Then it was contented, while it was sheltering such a joyous group. But now its roof is tumbling and the panes of glass are goneg Its walls are grayed by the weather for it has seen many years pass by- Years of plenty and years of poverty, Days of joy and days of grief. The saddest sight one could ever see is a house with a broken heart. Rosa STARKEY. Ilsll
