Occasionally, neighboring classes have a representative or two present. The Secretary suggests this practice to other classes. These are the days when friendship means a great deal to us all. Good fellowship is one commodity we can all exchange freely. The circular letter sent out by the Secretary in December brought the news of the death of Joseph A. Brainerd, which happened last August. Joe was only a member of the class one year. After leaving college, he went to New York and entered the employ of Brill Bros., clothiers, and became associated with the advertising department of that firm. He continued in this field throughout his entire business career. Joe was married and leaves his widow, who resides at Bellaire Drive, Dobbs Ferry, N. Y.
