CLASS OF 1890
We hear from Nutt put in Glencoe, Ill., that Holmes, who was recently reported in a Chicago hospital as the result of a bad automobile accident, has gotten out and was able to attend a church dinner, the other day, but has not gone back to work yet.
Mrs. Keeling, the daughter of our classmate, the late Elmer D. Sherburne, is now living in Evanston, Ill. Her husband, who is with the banking firm of Lee, Higginson and Co., has been promoted from the Boston to the Chicago office.
William P. Earle, who resides in Miami, Fla., fears that he will be unable to make the long trip to Hanover for the June reunion.
Dr. Perry S. Boynton of New York writes not only that he and his wife will be at the reunion in June, but that his two sons will also be there. Both are students at Dartmouth, Perry Jr. being in the class of '31 and Carroll in the class of '32. They plan to stay over for Commencement. The Secretary hopes that others of the class will bring their sons and daughters to the reunion.
Reed has not returned as yet to his missionary work in South America. He recently suffered a cerebral hemorrhage, he wrote a classmate.
Mills is president of the C. and G. Club of Chicago. Twenty-five gathered at the recent annual dinner at the University Club.
George Mills writes from Chicago that Pringle was in that city May 2, and lunched with him and Hilton at the University Club. He gathered that Pringle was on some sleuthing errand in connection with his reform organization, because Al Capone immediately took an airplane for Miami as soon as Pringle arrived. Moreover, George writes that Hilton turned pale when he suggested that Pringle look in on the seventh floor at the University Club, where H. H. and other big business men of Chicago spend many hours at bridge.
James B. Reynolds, formerly assistant secretary of the treasury and a member of the tariff board, has been kept very busy all the past winter in Washington, as an adviser in regard to the new tariff bill. Jimmie is one of the country's great experts on the tariff. An article in the Country Gentleman of recent date says: "A man has got to know his beans when it comes to the tariff. Experts such as Senator Smoot of Utah, Mr. Thomas O. Marvin, seven years chairman of the tariff commission, Judge Marion DeVries, for many years chief of the court of customs appeals, or Mr. James B. Reynolds, former assistant secretary of the treasury, know their tariff as Macaulay's famous schoolboy knew his archbishops of Canterbury." Jimmie was intending to take a trip abroad for rest and relaxation, but writes now that the prospects are that he will be present at Commencement.
Acting Secretary, Rochester, N. H.
