Mart Remsen in his capacity as class agent has been busy collecting funds, and submits the following items as constituting the more interesting side of his job.

Chuck Fraser is still in Fayetteville, N. Y., conducting the Baptist-Presbyterian co-operative services as pastor. He reports three Dartmouth men in his town; the other two are assisting with him in his church. He always looks for news of other members of the class when reading the pages of the ALUMNI MAGAZINE, even though it may only be a change of address.

Phil Smith at Hartford, Conn., states that he is as usual, happy though married. Reports seeing Jim Healy of Springfield on a trolley, protecting a very beautiful damsel in his usual fervent manner.

Lize Wheelock writes from Willimantic, Conn., as follows:

"My dear Remsen: Just now I am pretty well loaded up with coal bills, furniture purchases, automobile repairs, income taxes, and other pleasant little sundries; I have recently taken unto myself a wife, and am learning that 'two can live as cheaply as one' is the bunk."

Leland P. Spore of 803 West Washington St., Sandusky, Ohio, sent in an appeal that I will have to refer to some of our oil magnates for answer. It is as follows: "Dear Remsen:

Your address indicates that you are keeping quite illustrious company. It seems to stick in my mind that you and the Standard Oil occupy the same building. If you are connected with this worthy organization, use your influence to keep the price of gas down in the Middle West. Soak the high and mighty, but leave us commoners alone."

Harrison R. Boulia of Winthrop, Mass., writes that after an illness of over three years he is now getting back on his feet again, and trying to raise funds by public contribution in the state of Massachusetts to fight tuberculosis.

Les Castle of Potsdam, N. Y., wants to know if any one can equal or surpass the record held jointly by Henry Koelsch and himself of three boys registered for Dartmouth.

Jim Blythe has severed his connection with the National City Bank, and has taken over with a Mr. Nelson the New England representation of the Detroit Company. Specialization is made of municipal bonds and high grade corporation bonds. Address 73 Water St., Boston.

Bill Taft of Greenville, N. H., sent in his contribution with the news that he took up matrimony last fall, but did not mention the lady's name. Bill has many lines in his home town, being justice of the peace and notary public, and carrying on insurance of every description. Perhaps his first office was the reason for his instructions to reunion travelers last June to go through his town.

Bob Noble is at Randolph High School, Randolph, Vt.

L. D. White is connected with the University of Chicago in the department of political science. In addition to the above, he is president of the American Section of the International Congress of Public Administration, and attended the session at Brussels last year. He is also acting as technical consultant to the Bureau of Public Personnel Administration at Washington. For the last six months he has been engaged in personnel study for Mayor Dever of Chicago. The National Research Council has published a study of his entitled "Evolution of Systems of Financial Control of Research in State Governments." He can be found at the University at the Quadrangle Club.

The prize communication came in from Bill Hall of Rochester, N. Y. It is as follows:

'My dear 'Mart': Having never met you I'm going to get familiar right off the bat.

I think it is my privilege, because, when anyone knows me well enough to ask for money, I just naturally feel chummy because I don't know whether its a subtle compliment or they's just nachally kiddin' me.

Here's five iron-masters, fella, which represents just haf of wich I just borried offn a sucker friend of mine.

Ewers till Niagara Falls, 'Bill' Hall.

P. S. Is this enough to know of me?"

Douglas MacCartee is in Salem, Washington County, N. Y., "At present I am endeavoring to drive inquiring young minds through the intricacies of high school math."

Jess Stillman is living at 1510 Franklin St., Wilmington, Del., and the most important announcement he has to make—although unfortunately it does not affect the future enrolment of Dartmouth—is the arrival on December 13, 1924, of Tacie Anne Stillman. Jess is still with the Dupont interests, and states, "If anyone has need of anything from gunpowder and high explosives to automobiles— Ask Dupont.

Assistant Weillesley Hills, Mass.
