Class of 1912
This is the first issue of the 1926 model of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE. There is no better ■way to ' give you news of 1912 than right through this page, and we want every man in the class to get it that way. We are now at the crossroads in the decision as to whether we can continue to send it to every member, but we are going to start at least to do this, and if the returns in dues are insufficient we will have to confine the subscriptions to just those who pay. This would be most unfortunate, and it is to be sincerely hoped that every member possible will take care of the bill for dues when presented in order to make ends meet.
. Ed Mitchell has been working at Atlantic City all summer. Imagine that—living at Atlantic City and getting paid for it. He is back again at 216 Fenimore St., Brooklyn.
Sam Hobbs sent in a little note with a check too, for which many thanks. Nothing would be more pleasing to your Secretary than to be able to send a few words of appreciation and thanks for each check received, and also to acknowledge personally each letter. This is as you can understand impossible as the work has to be done when the .boss is out to lunch, or at home after the kiddies are put to bed, dishes washed, etc., etc. However, it must be particularly mentioned that Ole Ahlswede, Harry Trapp, and Holly Crowell sent in their dues twice and so credited against next year.
Tex Morris is back in old Texas again. Thanks for your letter, Tex, and glad that you all enjoyed your trip so much. Doc O'Connor and Mrs. too, of course, are quite in love with the dog you sent them. No—this is not a hint, as the Garcia household has no provision for animals as yet. Can't even get a canary located. New address of Tex Morris is care of the City National Bank of Clarksville, Clarksville, Texas.
Joseph L. Richards:—Your letter head giving your business as "arborist and forester" surely sounds interesting, and with residence at Hanover still more so. This issue no doubt answers your inquiry on the question of subscription.
Roy Lewis:—Had the great pleasure of spending a fine afternoon on the Lebanon golf links with Brother Guy. Hope you received the memorandum sent you the other day. Roy is a realtor down at Tampa and building roads on the side, with address as 3003 Granada, Tampa, Fla.
It was a pleasure to spend an altogether too short an evening with "Babe" and Mrs. Hartshorn. Both have already started to prepare Hanover for the reception of 1912 at the Big Fifteenth.
Also met " Queechy" French at Quechee— repairing his automobile for his vacation trip. Don't let "Queech" ever talk you into taking any short cuts over the Green Mountains.
Pike Childs is again a happy father—John Arthur is the youngster's name, born on the 7th of July at half past three in the morning. Pike does get the nicest arrival notices. Our congratulations, Mr. and Mrs. Childs.
Norton P. Webber:—Thanks for your invitation, and will surely look you up next time. Norton is residing at 3220 San Jose St., Palma Ceia, which is Tampa, Fla.
Ed McCarthy is down South somewhere, possibly Miami. We haven't heard what his address is, but expect to hear soon.
Harold S. Harmon:—Tried to get Hal to write a few lines and give us some dope on conditions in China. We are grateful for the remittance, Hal, and would sure like to have a few lines from you. Anyway we will see you in 1927.
Scotty Rogers was supposed to be summering in the neighborhood of West Hampton, L. 1., this year but this may be only rumor, as we didn't hear a word from him. There are a lot of Chryslers on the L. I. roads, and Doc O'Connor and yours truly couldn't catch them all in our Ford.
Secretary, 1452 Broadway, New York
