- :«r As we were about to leave the restaurant Richard an walked in. He had iust completed a new type of airplane in his plant at Detroit. While in Detroit we were the guests ot .Alma Fuller, w ho was in charge ot the fashion show. Louise Boise, Dorothy Schmitt, and Marcella Sehlhorst were mannequins at the show. We also met .Albert Schneider, a prominent manu- facturer ot automobiles, and his charming wife. He informed us that Edward Willins was the editor of a large newspaper, and that Hyman Klein is a prominent criminal lawyer and is slated tor a seat in Congress. -After the adjourning of the convention Ruth and 1 decided to go to Cin- cinnati before returning to New York. On the train we met .Audrey Hine, Louise Teiigler, and Kathryn O ' Brien, w ho were on their way to Cincinnati from Chicago. At the Union Terminal Station w e saw Tom .Abatico, who operates a news stand, and Marv Blome, who is proprietress of the woman ' s shop in the terminal. We checked in at the new .Sieger Hotel, which is owned by Myrle Sieger. The front page of the Times-Star informed us that Saly HofFner and Larry Donohue were to represent the Lnited .States in the forthcoming Olympic games. In the dining room that evening we met Jean Bunting, who is a prominent society woman. She informed us that .Ada Ahlers is president of the Woman ' s City Club; and that .Arline Decher and her wealthy husband are on a West Indies cruise. Jean in ited us to a dinner she was planning. The dinner was an elaborate affair, the guests of honor being Wilbur Me er, mayor of Cincinnati, and Melvin ahl, president ot the Kroger Grocery and Baking Company, and his charming wife. -Also attending the dinner were Helen Bitter, Margaret Wagner, and .Alvera Brockmever, prominent in the Oueen City ' s social circles; Jasper Murphy, w ' ell-known physician, and .Arthur Lakamp, brilliant attorney. During the conversation I learned that Hilda Lewis, Laura Giebel, and Charlotte Niehaus were teachers at the L niversity of Cincinnati; that Maud Smyth is a nurse at Johns Hopkins Hospital; that Pat Dougherty is a politician; that Edw-ard Hauser operates a hotel in Florida, and that Ruth Brunner and Frances Boehringer are wintering there. We former classmates decided to have a theater party at .Shubert ' s and see the musical comedy hit playing there. Suddenly everyone at the table seemed to swirl, and I became conscious ot my surroundings and the Hindu ' s voice saying, I believe you have had time to see enough for a dozen class prophecies. — .Adele M. Richter.

manager. He informed me that Eva, Louise, and Agnes Guethlein were operating an exclusive tea shoppe on Fifth Avenue; that Julia Swasky is a private secretary to Fred Cafazzo, who operates a chain of tiepartment stores, and that ' irgiline F teifFer is publishing her fourth successful novel. The next day in the lobby ot the hotel I met Fred Wmkler, who was attending the convention of the International Aeronautical Society, and who informed me that Steve .Strassburger also was attending the convention, and that Paul Doppes is planning a solo round-the-world hop. I stopped at the Guethlein girls ' tea shoppe. They were familiar with all of the latest news and gossip, and told me that Urban Tabler hail niaiie a great hit in his latest talkie with the aid of Elvira Tewell as his leading lad ; that Syhia Tenoever was gaming fame as a radio singer. Leaving the tea shoppe, I went directly to the main floor of the Exchange, where much enthusiasm was being manifested over the recent rise in .American Gas Electric stock. This company is controlled In Ralph Beinecke, Robert Funk, and I ' rban Kunnen. There I also met i ' Ved Smith, a broker. 1 also spied Elizabeth Schummer, who operates a millinery shop. That evening I decided to see the current musical hit on Broadway. .As I was alighting from a taxi I noticed a beautiful Pierce-.Arrow, which stopped behind my taxi, and a well-dressed man alighted whom I recognized as Walter .Schrader. He immediatelv recoijnized me and escorted me into the theater. It so happened that our seats were next to one another. During intermission we saw Olivia Fischesser and Helen Buelterman and their escorts in the lobby. .As we were leaving the theater I heard someone speak to me and, turnmg, 1 saw Ruth Keller. .After a short conversation I learned that she is a designer of women ' s clothing and employs Marie Herbort and Dorothy Niemeyer as models. She, too, was going to attend the same fashion show as I, in Detroit, so we decided to travel together. We left by plane from Roosevelt Field and had .Anthony Hartig as our pilot. -An hour later we stopped off at Washington and went to the galleries of the House, where we saw .Alex McLean, who is Speaker of the House, and Mary Sutton, who is Congresswoman of Ohio. .As we were leaving the Capitol we met .Alice Mc.Avoy, who is a private secretary to a Senator. She told us that Dorothy Kling is married to a man well known in Washington diplomatic circles and is socially prominent. We reached the airport and were about to climb into our plane when another plane taxied to a stop. Presently two young ladies emerged from the plane. They proved to be Kathryn Dyer, pilot, and Hilda Hater, co-pilot. They informed us that Agnes Hartung is the woman swimming champion of the Lhiited States and had recently given an exhibition at Washington. Within four hours we reached the landing field in Detroit. We decided to have lunch at the restaurant located on the field. .As we entered the restaurant I noticed a rather gleeful party who proved to be Mary Kramer, Dorothy Luther, Dorothy Hasselbeck, and .Alva Fleischmann, all of whom were on their way to a hairdressers ' convention in Montreal. This was a fortunate meeting, since their plane landed only to take on fuel. From the usual exchange of news we learned that Lucille Schneider is an expert masseuse, banishing wrinkles from ugly faces, ami that Robert Krumpelbeck is preaching technocracy. : fe 54
