TE' ECH ESW I J' 'lv 1, 1 'L dall, Isabel Skitch came and told me that lNIiss Kendal had resigned and that she was now teaching the poor kids to make tea biscuits and to get plenty of calories in their diet. She told me that Helen Hetherington was modelling bathing suits for children at the Deb Shop and Ruth Parnall was living just off the Port Hope High- way on a Fox Farm. VVe don't know just why she was there, but-. - I left to go downtown, but just as I got outside, I met Geraldine Chapman. I asked her where she was hanging around and she said she was Manager of the Chap- man Knitting Co. Gerry asked me if I had seen lNIary Kingsbury since she went in training, and I hacIn't, so I thought this was a good chance. When I got to the hospital, Mary told mc that she was day nurse for a girl from our room when we were kids. It was Irene Battle, suffering from a sprained back, caused by trying to lift two of her cakes out of the oven at once. Mary and I went to the threatre at night and here was Sophie Yeotes starring with lNIax Bebee-and Blargaret Blorgan playing the piano fat the opening of a new theatrej . As I was going home along Hunter St. E. I saw Myrtle Joyes looking out of a hardware store. Of course, you know what one! So I Went in-and asked her where Ruby hlilburn was, and she told me she was over in Italy teaching special lessons in History and Economics. As a wise man once said, Sweet lNIystery thou hast got me, therefore, let come what may, because at the end of another twenty years, I suppose we shall all be sit- ting in a large rocking chair beside the fireplace counting our fingers or something.
