That would, of course, be rather discouraging to the chairman of the committee, unless she, also were too busy to attend . But, I thought, how interesting if on the morning of the reunion each absentee sent a telegram in which was stated the sender's occu- pation and reason for absence. And how very interesting if these tele- grams were collected in o little book and passed about so that all the class members might get first-hand information about the others. l be- come so engrossed in the idea that I even pictured to myself the exact wording of the telegrams the various people would send. I could pic- ture in my mind the following: l Amafarmer . Raisewinter wheat and summer squashes. Can't come because am busy with harvest. RAYMOND JAMES There's something queer about that, but I'm not iust sure what it is. I suppose R' ymond is a very scientific former and knows all about rotation of crops and everything. Iwonder if he raises shorthorns?l never can remember whether they cre cows or turnips, but he probably raises them, anyway . 2 Am private secretary to the head of o huge corporation. He was born crazy and had a relapse. Won't give me time off to come to re-K union. I shall write all his letters backwad for a week. PETE CATE That poor manl What she'll do to his correspondencel You remem- ber, - she never did let anyone impose on her. I wonder if she spells any better than she used to--or worse. No., she couldn't spell worse. 3 Have stopped nursing at the hospital. Am nursing at home - mother of six children. Sorry. L WANDA WELSH Welll It looks like at thatrate she will have her fourteen children. 4 Can't come to reunion. I'm traveling about on wheels - l've iust muried a salesman of Buick Automobiles. MARGARET VANCE Bet she is riding high . But who would have thought that she would have married a salesman, she is the type that likes a home. 5 Sorry can't come to reunion . Have just married the chief surgeon at the hospital . Honeymooning in Knoxville . No time for a distant trip. BARBARA BEARD I knew Barbara would not be an old maid. Probably took nursing iust to et her a husband. 9 if 6 Sorry can't attend the reunion. My husband and I are attending a boxing match. Pretty good boxer myself, especially with a rolling pin. MILDRED LAUDERDALE Bet she makes him stand around. One lick with that pin would do the work . 7 lplanned to marrya preacher but I am such a changeable creature that today I'm arryinga teacher. He is principal of Dumplin and also the Mayor. ll5President of P. T. A. and we are having o meeting tonight. GEORGIA ELDER No wonder she couldn't attend. She is certainly a busy person . 8 Jim andlhave iust bought the Hwang Ho Restaurant in New York. Specialize in Chow Mein. Drop in for Chow anytime you're in our city. No charge to loafers. WANDA GANN At last Wanda did mclry Jim but I didn't think they would prosper. 9 Giving boxing lessons, making lots of money. Five dollcrs a lesson per day. JOHN PASCHAL l thought that he wanted to box himself. l didn't think he'd make it . I0 ,Am County Health Nurse of Jefferson County. Can't came because ofanepidemic of chickenpox and Pernicious Annemia. Haven't mcrried yet - too risky. JEAN GAUT That's funny what happened to Nowell? Thought sure .lean would mary that doctor . Guess she knows what she is doing. 'll Helping Sam with the pet shop. Specialize in eels, ichneumons, md elephants. Sorry can't come tonight, expecting new shipment of Japanese beetles. NANCY DAVIS What happened to Robert, Nancy? Well, at lecet she said she was sorry she couldn't come. l2 Deisel engineer. Tunneling Rockies to shorten trip for Hollywood commuters. JOHN FRANKLIN You notice he used iust ten words and no more. Caeful Q ever, but l'll bet it's a good tunnel. I3 Getting along iust fine with my fifty children. As you know I'm in chqge of the Harlem Orphanage. Little Nellie has the measles, Johnny md J . W . the whooping cough. I wouldn't leave them for the world. Sorry can't come. VIVA ELDER She has decided to take ccre of children after all. Wonder if she likes the iob? l4 Have iust married a well known Sports Authority. My hubby and I need to employ immediately ten new secretaries. Get your letters in -- first come, first served. MARJORIE MCGLAMORY Wish she had given her husba'td's name but l suppose she is happy. Probably attending all the ball games. I5 Just ioined the Navy to see the world through o porthole. Shall think of you all in every port, as I walk through the slums and see the peculiar people. J. R. DIAMOND I don't think he meant that quite as it sounds, but merely that he would behomesick in those queer places and wishes to see his friends. He is so ambitious he'll probably be an admiral by the time the fleet gets to Manila. . I6 Success has come to my door -- have iust married the owner of a large depatment store. Have a winter home on ILE DU DIABLE and a summer home in BALUCHISTAN, honeymooning in our yacht, GRA- NADA on Loch Lomond . BEA STALLINGS Well, at last she has got married. Bet she feels big. I7 Having a busy time -- operating own Beauty Shop. Paying off fine . Hard work though. JULIA LANGSTON At last she has decided to operateaploce like that. Bet the people that walk out of that place are funny looking. Wonder if Julia's hair looks any better than it used to. Hope so or she might lose some cus- tomers. l8 Have retired from my nursing career. Spend most of my time rais- ing cats and chickens. Sit by fire and read Scott and Dickens. Hus- band is author . JEAN HENRY She used to have so many boy friends. At last she has decided which one to mary, I9 Have iust muried Gondolez Hidalgo, Champion Knife-thrower of Bailey Brothers Circus. Makes S250 every performance, ADDIE BELL KELLY Bet she is spending lots of money now. She always did like to have money. 20 Am X-ray technician at the Lido Clinic. Have met a wonderful mm, a Psychiatrist. He thinks he has Echinococcus granulasus. He hasn't but I don't mind taking X-rays. Sorry. SHIRLEY DOTY l'll bet that she marries that guy. Maybe she will be happy. 21 Am teacher of History at Blowing Dale School. Can't come -- my students and I me touring Europe on bicycles. Sorry can't come to I'8UI'ttOl'1 . ' ELSIE GANN Well at last Elsie has become a teacher. I really didn't think that she would do it. Thought maybe she'd get married, raise a family and settle down. But sometime people fool you. lershe has g time with those children.
