“Margery, look here in today’s paper. “Famous Sc'entist injured by explosion during experiment.” That’s Woodrow I’ortz! and would you believe it, he is being taken care of by Elizabeth Murphy in the Morris Hospital at Pittsburgh.” “Here’s something else; “Bernard Courtwright breaks the Glider Time Record.” “Let’s look at the sports section. Whose picture is that? “That’s ‘Round Boy Murphy', heavy-weight champion, managed by our own little ‘Buzz.’ Isn't that thrilling. “Hello girls!” “Mahala Mugford! And here’s Sally Why you two haven’t changed a bit. We haven't seen you since we graduated and you said then you were going abroad to study music, and see your old flame in Sweden.” “Ah, you’re all wet. We’re both professional housekeepers. We had a little spare time this morning and so we thought we’d play a few sets of tennis.” There’s a few more that we haven’t heard of for a long time. Let’s see. Where is Esther Rohrbacher?” Oh, she's operating a Tea Room, in Cleveland and Lucille Widder has a Beauty Shop next door.” “Where’s Emma and Charlene, and what arc they doing?” “Emma is leading a stage career at the Orpheum of Detroit, and Charlene is teaching kindergarten work at Lisbon, a suburb of Detroit. “Where are you going, Mahala?” “Sally and I are going down to the depot to meet that 2:10 train.” “Oh, that’s the train that Jim Geese is engineer on. He always was interested in engineering.” “Let’s go down to the depot and speak to Jim.” “Say, there’s Alice Shearer working in the National Bank.” “Yes, I was talking to her and she told me that Opal and Irene, after graduating from Bliss had secured positions with the American Insurance Union at Columbus. “Gee, they’ve built a new depot since I've been away. Well there’s Jim’s train and would you look! There’s Eleanor and Ralph.” “I forgot to tell you they were married and just returning from their honeymoon.' “Taxi lady! Taxi! “Well, if that isn't Jakie Jones driving that taxi.” “Nothing doing Jakie! Ralph and I can't afford a taxi ride, we’ll walk.” “Ruth, let’s get Jakie to take us over to the green house to get some flowers for Mother.” “Sure, we’ll go over to Edith’s.” “So long gang! We’ll see you later.” —Margery Palmer —Ruth Richmond.
