In passing through Salt Lake City, she discovered the only scandal of the class when she met Boone Horne who introduced her to his wives, formerly Myrtle Key and Mildred Jones. On the train she saw Renfro Lesley, who was on his way hack to Spain, where he was president of a large trading company, which position he had acquired on account of his extensive knowledge of Spanish. n Word had come that Harold Jenkins was soverign commander of the W. O. W. and Ida Craig'was teacher of Latin in Africa. Mona Summers was driving an air mail liner from Quanah to Dallas, and Gertrude Willis was sheriff of Hardeman county. Edith Hanna and Kathleen Reeves were teaching in a deaf and dumb school on the Island of Yap, and Annie Laurie Brewer was in the Hawaiian Islands-a missionary. But the climax of surprises was reached in Mr. and Mrs. D. Cox. Mrs. Cox, nee Mary Rogers, was drawing for Bud Fisher while Mr. Cox was President of the United States and on account of his fondness for ladies his cabinet was composed entirely of women. -Ruby Colfer.
