8, SHERMAN ANNUAL. JUNE, 1922 and asked him what he had in such a large box. He told us it was a new radio, that he had invented, made especially for aeroplanes. We thought of our trip to the moon, which we were planning to take the next day, and decided to equip our new plane with one of these newradios. - a The following day we started for the moon ,arriving in about two hours. The first person we met was Herbert Palmer, who was at the station ready to act as a guide for any one who would have him. We made an agreement with him that if he, Herbert, would show us around the moon we would buy him a bag of candy. He was much pleased with this plan and we again started on our journey. As we had never been on the moon we wanted to see how the natives amused themselves. Our guide told us he would take us to the circus which was in town. lt was the Richey and Nichols circus, owned by Dolores Richey and Donald Nichols. We did not care much for circuses as a rule, but after seeing the parade, we certainly wanted to go. ln the parade King Telleson was the fat maxi and rode on a tiny little mule that could hardly lift his feet. lt was whispered that the famous Rey de la Lunal' weighed over two hundred pounds! Harry Stead, Hallie Williams and Heloise Richardson were also there. Harry was teaching the monkeys to hang by their tails. Hallie and Heloise were famous sword eaters. That night we went to a radio concert. We were surprised to see listed on the program a notice something like this: John Pete Rimoldi, soprano opera singer, will delight us wtih two selections, 'tOur School VVill Shine Tonight and ttOld Mac Donald Had a Farm. We were delighted to hear our old elassmate's wonderful voice although we could not see his handsome face. Feeling the call of home strong within us, we thought we would return to earth, so the next night we started. Going down we found that Mr. Kenneth Seebold had cheated us and given us a radio with- out a receiver. On account. of this mistake, we were unable to con- trol our machine and landed by mistake in Alexandria, Egypt. We had not wanted to come to Alexandria, but as long as we were there, we thought we might as well see all we could of the city. The first thing we needed was a guide, so we started out to find one. Seeing a man standing in front of a store with a t'For Sale sign pinned to him, we walked up to him and found that it was Chester Vaughn. As we did not want to buy him, and keep him forever, we decided to rent him. We would want his services for only a month or so, and then we would be glad to get rid of him. He proved to be a very good guide, as he took us to Where two of our old friends were sitting. They were Margaret Ritchie and Luella Tomrell. They were much decorated with all kinds of beads and gay ribbons. Already Margaret Ritchie's hair was taking on a raven hue, trying to match Luella's new complexion. They told us that for two years they had been in partnership trying to make imitation rag rugs.

g . . e . SHERMAN ANNUAL, JUNE, l'922 7 ftMiss Annie Easley, the noted European hair dresser has just arrived from Europef' ln the corner was a picture of Annie herself. Her hair was combed straight back with a knot behind. The article also stated that Miss Easley herself believed this to be the only sensible way to do one's hair. How she had changed! As we walked down the street we saw a very queer sight. Com- ing toward us was such an extremely fat woman that We quickly estimated that she took up three-fourths of the side walk. Walking beside her was a tiny man or one who seemed so beside her.l We were still more astonished when we saw who they were. The man was Frd Kelly-but-the woman was Ursel Quenn! Of course we stopped to speak to them. We soon found that Fred had invented a new medicine to make thin women fat. Ufrsel had taken some of it and was now employed as his walking adver- tisement ! The next afternoon we walked down to the pier. At the farther end of the pier sat a blue clad figure. We walked on and found it was Margaret Neyenesch. On either side of her was a pile of clam shells. On asking her what she was doing she said: t'Why, I am hunting for pearls, of course. Poor Margaret, she always did get things mixed up! Later that afternoon we drove out to the back country. In about an hour we came to a small brown house. Being very thirsty, we stopped for a drink. Seeing a figure not far off, We went over to see who it was. We soon found it to be lsabel Miller, who smiled sweetly from under her huge red sunbonnet. She had taken up truck gardening and was finding it very profitable. On the way hack we heard an airplane above us. Looking up through our field glasses we saw Herbert Kunzel leaning out of the airplane as far as possible, with Clark Lucy holding on to him for dear life. On seeing this queer sight we immediately wanted to know what it meant. The infor- mation office would be the place to find out. We sped back to town in such a hurry that we almost ran over a cow at Fifth and Broadway. On arriving we asked what Clark and Herbert were doing hanging out of an airplane like that. We learned that the Messrs. Herbert Kunzel and Clark Lucy had gone into partnership to catch sea gulls whose feathers they used to stuff monkeys for the museum. The next day was Sunday so we planned to go to the Christian Church. As we arrived a little early we decided to visit the Sun- day School rooms. On the way down we met Emma La France who had just been ordained the first woman minister of that church. She offered to take us through the Sunday School rooms. When we reached the beginners' department we saw a familiar figure marching with the three year olds. lt was Harry Douglas. Walking down the street the next day, we nearly bumped into Kenneth Seehold who was laboring under the difficult task of carry- ing a small box about five inches square. Of course we stopped

We heard that Emily llleeseeling was l1is most promising Stu- dent. Wliile we were walknig by the front of tl1e building we were greatly surprised to see Helen Stevens walking LlOXV11 the Steps.
