That evening we went to the theatre and afterward were the guests of Mr. Brown at the town ice-cream parlor. Saturday, our last day, we were most impressed by the Spanish Patio in the Pan-American Build- ing, the diminutiveness of the Spirit of St. Louis in the Smithsonian Insti- tute, the stacks of money and stamps in the Mint which seemed without value, because there was so much of it, the Capitol and the White House, both impressive because of the awe and reverence which they inspired. Willie called for us promptly at 3:20 and drove us to the station where we had about ten minutes to spare. Souvenirs were much in evidence, but how much money we spent on them then! At last the train, and another special car, this time Agatha , another delicious spread in the dining car Qchicken, mashed spuds, peas, and piej, an- other joyful ride on the train, and home again, feeling as if we had been away for at least two weeks, and as is usually said of such a journey, tired but happy. Our esteemed and honorable president, the Mr. Joseph Van Orden, has kindly obliged with the following notes which will probably mean nothing to you, but they're everything to us.

A gentle breeze blew silently through the trees, wafting the apple blossoms down to the sweet brown earth. She sat on the green grass, gently caressing the head of brown waves which lay in her lap. She looked at him ardently, lovingly with her soft blue eyes. Lowering her head she whispered sweet nothings in his ear. He raised his brown eyes and saw her beautiful face framed with hair that was like a soft, dark cloud. Oh! how they loved each other-this large collie dog and his lovely mistress!
