Discouraged by the unresponsiveness of the Western brethren, your Winchell journeyed out to Chicago in October to inspect that disaffected area. By employment of the good nature and energy of Gene Hotchkiss, a sparkling dinner was arranged and consummated at the H-Y-P Club. After dinner we sat about the table and benefited from the generosity of Modie Spiegel, who had remembered that Veritas is in something or other. It has been long since your scribe has sat with a group of such buoyant spirit. Those present were Davidson, Wagner, Pierce, Blunt, Spiegel, Hotchkiss, McCasky, Sherman, Spiel, and Horan. Others who had to withdraw at the last moment were Schulte, Sharp, Saunders, Weare. Senders of regrets were Maze, Miller, Morse, Bray, Gatzert, Grant, Hinners, Rex, Barnett.
Loosh Sherman is on the Chicago Curb Exchange, familiarly known as the "Beer Exchange." Those who backed Loosh's choice of haberdashery years ago will be heartened to hear that his taste remains the perfect thing that it was when they went to the pools for him.
I visited Spiegel, May, Stern, the mailorder house of which Modie is president, and got sufficiently bewildered trying to follow the system whereby a wife in Keokuk buys a bungalow apron from Modie. The concern employs 2,000 people, which puts Spiegel in a class with Miner as a massexecutive.
Ed Morse is now in business in St. Joe, Mich., with the Theona Operating Co.
Len Morrissey got up a fine party at the University Club, Boston, for the night before the Harvard game. A list of the faithful in attendance has not yet been supplied your scribe, but the bouncy announcement gave promise of fun ahead.
Miss Rose Berghofer and John Inghram were married at Quincy, Ill., on October 28.

Jack is practicing law in Quincy, of course, and latterly has been assistant state's attorney of Adams County. This year he is exalted ruler of the Quincy B. P. O. E.
