' I next visited New Orleans at the request of Louise Haslop, who was interested in the social uplift of the negro. I also saw Ellen McDonald, who was living on a sugar plantation nearby. Effie Williamson accompanied me from here to New York, where she was Superintendent of Education. At the dock we were met by Merle Dimick, who was reporter .for the New York Times. I immediately took a train for Albany to visit Ethel Woodcock, who was the gracious matron in the Governor's mansion. .Here we found Clara Luther, who was filling the office of Private.Secretary to the Governor. Ethel told us of two other classmates, Vara Stewart and Vada Smith, who had just gone through New York on their way to Canada. ,She also told of her recent visit to West Point where she saw Genevieve Cooper, the wife of an Army Officer. On my return to New Yorilz I-found Mabel Gillette and Blanche Darby, who were wedded to their pro ession. N After an uneventful voyage I reached Paris, where I fou-nd Nola Kent and Jo Nielson designing Paris gowns for American women. During our visit another classmate, Orlene Bennett, made her debut in Grand Opera. Having thought another classmate was in Germany, I left for Berlin. Here I found Harry Brookhardt, who had' practically succeeded the Kaiser, as he was there to again build up the German Empire from the devastations of the war. We found two of his able assistants were none other than Vale Hiltebrand and Willa Hawley. In our strollings through the aviation fields we met Alberta Porter, who immediately offered to take me to England in her Zeppelin. . r She dropped us at the grounds of Earl So-and-So, whose wife was Mable Williamson. In London., we found Mrs. Amanda Rogers, who was studying slum conditions. On board, we met Ellen O'Donnell, who was returning from an extended honeymoon. En voyage I picked up an American newspaper to discover that Alvhild R-omtvedt had at last gotten a name we could pronounce, for she had married a man named Smith. An interesting letter was brought me by the pilot, which was an invitation to the wedding of Edna Messinger. As we were close friends, I immediately hurried across continent to be there. . At the Grand Central Station I met Allie McDonald and Al1CG.ll'ICELi'H11, who were nursing in a New York Hospital. Here we also found. Nellie I oung, who was head matron of the Station. Looking from the train window we saw Neta Waller and Ruth VanZandt, who were heads of a large firm 111 Chicago. A I . Arriving in Portland, I was met bY my IIOSJUCSS, Gretchen KI'eaHIGl wfth whom I was staying. She and Helene Ogsbury are downstairs now discussing plans for a Charity Pageant.

Dear President Ackerman: This letter will probably be a surprise to you, especially when you have looked at the signature, a member of the February Olass 716- l have just returned from an extended trip during which I savv many of mv classmates. iWe talked of our days at Normal School, the faculty, student body and the chapel exercises. We talked of the talks given there and most of all the-Monday morning talks by the President. I Wonder if someof the doings of the members of our illustrious class Would furnish material for these inspirational talks. - I I sailed from Portland Harbor on board the steamer Normal Spirit, under command of Captain Benjamin, our former Student Body President, who showed me many courtesies. I had dinner in his private salon Where an ex- cellent dinner was served. Upon inquiry,I found that it was due to dieteties taught by Miss Butler to the chief cook, who was-Flo Dougherty. Going on deck the next morning I saw a great crovvd listening to our greatest suffragette speaker of today and a member of F'ebruary Olass '16, Kate Houx. She was going to meet her co-Worker Genevieve Kirkpatrick Who was in San Francisco. I landed in 'Frisco that evening and was met by a handsome limousine driven by H. S. Nedry, who took us to the home of Hon. Mrs. I--, who was none other than Anna Grace Pallett. She entertained me with the same spirit that endeared her to all Normal students. ' , Our first evening was spent in listening to a concert given by Betty Baker, accompanied by Norma Graves, both members of our class. The next morning I had a bad headache and my hostess called a doctor, who was none other than Alma Bowman. She told of another patient Whom she was treating for insomniaj It was Olive Davis, Who had Worried herself sick over a plan for an ideal Rural School as depictedpby Mr. Pittman. I I sailed from San Francisco the next morning. On board I met Oliver Mathews, who was en route to South Africa Where he expected to teach the cannibal kings the three R's. I by 1At1the. canal zone, while going through the custom house, I was accosted l, . p easant faced woman who offered to help me. It was Myrtle Curry who was Y. VV. O, A. matron.
