'f.3a'i321 Efgxgifi 5,1143-a Here it is o .s. ome of my - e-ns ar- omi'g ne, for I am now owner and manager of the Pratt's white leghorn, fruit, and diary farm. I am teaching Eng- lish, as a side line, but have come to believe that I have too many nirons in the f1re.' Which one shall I give up? Speaking of giving up things, I heard yester- day, that my old pal Adolf Ruiz gave up a 10,000 dollar contract, which would have given him a chance to show his speed in the midget races. I was surprised to hear that Adolf gave up this position in order to drive the hearse for 'T. S. Stiff and Co.W After hearing about Adolf I wondered what had happened to my other old school friends. Then I heard news that first shocked me. 'Pat' Schrieber, or should I say F. W. Schrieber, has become a millionaire. He was one of these fellows who started out selling French perfume in Malone, and now has a half interest in the Hotel New Yorker, and buys and sells cosmetics all over the world. Guess whose picture is on every one of Pat's perfume bottles. That's right, our own Mary Peer has accepted a position as a model for the advertising of F. W. 's cosmetics. Mary's picture has traveled from London to China Town, and F. W. 's perfume bus- iness is really flourishing. On my journeys around town I ran into Onnolee QMopeyD Delass. She and Mary Loquasto have started in the florist business, and are selling white orchids and cowslips. Their business was at its best, and while I was talking to her, she told me that Rosanna Quick and Betty Tilly had started out for Alaska on horse- back. We wondered if there was another gold rush or if the attraction was the 'midnight sunn. Thinking on the subject of happy and successful people thrown in together, reminds me of another friend of mine, NArt' Wallace. After gaining honors at Cornell, Art went into the poultry business. He hatches, and sells his chickens all over the country. Last summer I bought some of the chicks from his R. O. P. 20
