As we left the theatre, we bought a newspaper from our old friend, james Welch. The headlines told us that Virginia Jay had donated a large part of her fortune to the Home for Blind Mice. Merle Howard had been appointed keeper of the mice. Virginia had made her fortune through ubootleggingf' On the next page we saw a large picture of our old friend, Marguerite Hegler in an advertise- ment for The Blue Print Hair Dye Company. The next ad was an advertisement for the famous King Monkey Farm. We decided to visit this farm and upon our arrival we met julian Luna and his wife, the former Nellie Stancato, who were the caretakers. Billy informed us that his fiancee, Evelyn Rogers, had gone to Egypt where she was a Missionary. We started back to the city and a motorist knocked us off the road, and when we arrived in the city we went to the office of a famous lawyer and found that it was our old pal, Leonard Skipton. His private secretary, Margaret Pringle, told us that Leonard was in conference at the time with Ernest Phillips, who was a famous dancing instructor. Margaret also told us that our football hero, Charles Turano, was teaching the savages of Africa the famous game of Tiddly Winks. We were worn out from our travels by this timeg so the little old man took us to our own fireside, and said, Farewell, l will see you again in ten years and tell you the changes that have taken place in your fellow-classmen since this ad- venturef, FINIS R. E. R. f-f N. MJ. -f- G. I.. R. CAIQGDES Life is like a sea bourne erafb A ship with well filled sails On it must go For the wind does blow Sometimes zephers, sometimes gales. This ship that hurries us on and on Whether we will or no, Carries rich treasure E'en without measure If we but wish it so. What is the wealth this old bark bears As she runs before the breeze, Deep in the old hold Like hoarded gold Are school day memories. --Margaret Pringle.
