LAST LINES
Again let me remind you (those of you whose facts of life are not in our files) to expect a letter from me one of these days expressing considerable curiosity about your goings-on.
AND FINALLY
I had the pleasure of running through the letters Don Moore received in connection with the Alumni Fund last year. I couldn't help but notice the large number of men who seemed a trifle ashamed of the size of their contributions. No man could be more in error than he who has that attitude! The thing to be sorry about is that 50% of the class did not chip in one solitary buck apiece, instead of nothing. If they had the Fund would have been over two hundred dollars richer and our class would not have been in the cellar, as always. In eight years of Fund participation 1923 has always hugged the lower brackets. Let's get up where we belong this year—keep the amount down if you must, but give something.
