Dearest Margaret:- I suppose you think I never get homesick to hear from you, you naughty, frivolous Peggy. Are you aware of the fact that you owe me at least three letters? I'm the busiest B. and should at this very moment be cramming for a Greek exam. Monday instead of writing to you. I had the funniest adventure today and hardly know whether to laugh or cry when I think of it. Yesterday afternoon about 3:30 I came up from the Lab. and began studying like mad on my Trig. for next period, when into the room like a cyclone swept my adorable Fluffy and tragically handed me a special delivery letter. It was from a long-forgotten cousin of hers, George Maxwell, Jr., whom she declared she had not seen since she was a child, and had forgotten completely how he looked. She believed she had heard her mother say that he was tall, of dark complexion and rather good looking. He wrote from New York City, saying he was on his way home to Los Angeles, Cal., after spending the winter abroad, and was going to run out and see Fluffy the next day. He would come on the train that arrives here 2:10 p. m. Now, Fluffy had been studying her dear little head nearly off in order to get away to attend a house party to be given in Newport. She had in- tended to start on the 6:04 train, not to return until Tuesday. The letter consequently brought all preparations to a standstill, and she had come to me for advice. I thought hard for a. little while, and at last hit upon a plan, and I'll say right here that I never hit upon a more foolish one. That very afternoon'Miss Carter, our new French teacher Qa dear, by the wayj, had called me Miss Turpin and then apologized, saying Fluffy and I looked so much alike she got us confused. I might be Miss Turpin for IB-
