They had many things to tell us. Among them were that Eunice Killion and Olga Lemke were still teaching school. They also told that Dan Cupid had been busy in our absence, and the victims were Lucile Williamson and Clarence Davis, Lucile Ashbrook and H. K. jett. They were sorry to say that Lawyer John jenkins had been employed in the divorce proceedings of Lorene Tomlinson and George Wolfe. We are sure that John settled their matrimonial tangle to the good of all concerned. As we were coming from the station to the Raleigh, we noticed pa sign that read Winchester Bros., Sports and Athletics. We stopped to see if it were Robert and William and sure enough it was! They told us that Thurman Saxon was noted football star. It was a jolly crowd that assembled at the Raleigh on this February l, l935, with Mr. and Mrs. George Peoples as host and hostess. fMrs. Peoples is known to our -old class as Miss Velma Slonel. Among those who gave us a hearty welcome were Rev. Carl Carson, pastor of the first Baptist Church, Mayor Harold Clark, Ettie Claire Jolley, teacher of art in Baylor University, and Ruth Montgomery, owner of a unique novelty shop. Waco High School is still doing splendid work with Woody Hodson as principal and Claude W'eaver and Ruth Stovall as members of the faculty. The last, but not least, Raymond Rowell accompanied by Miss Dell Scott, brought back sweet memories of old by singing Spirit of Waco High. Lorena Wheatley, Prophet. !lF'M X All aww illxftaea Q swf!!

IO, I934 Dearest Lorena: I have just heard that you have finished your study of music in Europe and will soon be home. You must be home by February I, for the l923 class is going to have a reunion. Oh, this is from Georgia Handley, our old class president, now Mrs. Prentice Rice. Prentice has made a great success in banking, and I am sure they are happy. I'll leave on the next ship. At the last summons I hurried on board, and who should be the Hrst person my eyes fell on but Captain Donald Wilkins. I learned from Donald that Bobbie joe I-Iope, Ruth Pearce and Mary Markusfeld were on their way home after having been engaged in Red Cross work. VVe landed in New York on a rainy Friday, December I3. In the lobby of the hotel we noticed that an excited crowd was gathered around a distinguished looking gentleman. Cn inquiring, we found him to be Sunshine Gilmore, the author of the best book in circulation. Sun- shine in his old enthusiastic way joined our band. Vife decided to spend a few days in New York. The next evening two famous stars were to sing at the I-Iippodrome. To our great sur- prise and pleasure we found them to be our old classmates Josephine Kemendo and Minnie Durham. They decided to go to the reunion with us. Our next pleasure trip was to Coney Island. We laid aside our dignity for one short day and became kids. Our first joy ride was on the hobby-horses. A gruff voice demanded our tickets, but instead of giving him our tickets, we shook hands with Bertram jackson. Hearing a call Get 'em while they're hot, boys, we had a longing for some hamburgers. Approaching the stand, we saw the familiar faces of our class twins, Ross and Roy Stanley. En route to Waco we stopped in California. There we saw a beautiful building and later discovered that it was the Bryan Aynesworth Hospital. Reading the San Francisco Times, we noticed that B. D. Reynolds was planning a trip to South America to further his study of Civil Engin- eering. Another item told that Miss Helen Morgan was voted the most beautiful girl in Hollywood and we were not surprised to learn that Wil- liam Schroeder was doing his best to get in the movies, These four being added to our crowd, we started for our Old Home Town. While we were waiting for the train to start, a jolly face peered through the window. It was Professor D. Stovall, and he, too, was going to the reunion.
