No one ever finds Archie C. Mills. He has moved before the searcher arrives and he never answers letters. However, he is now located at 456 Lake St., Los Angeles, Calif. He has two fine sons, one a California attorney, and the other in business in Seattle, Wash.

It is a satisfaction when, by the marriage of children, the Dartmouth tradition is continued. Maurice F. Brown of Winchester and Mrs. Brown have recently announced the engagement of their daughter, Miss Dorothy, to Paul C. Dunn, Dartmouth 1932. Miss Brown is a Wellesley graduate.

The Secretary was in Stamford recently and asked for news about John Keating. There never is news. Keating has become a city institution, and spectacular news is as impossible as it would be relative to Bunker Hill Monument or the Declaration of Independence.

George M. Lewis from Manhattan, Mont., has written about his family and his philosophy. Jessie is through Smith and Jean is now ready for college. Other children are Martin, Mary, and Richard. Lewis shudders at the names of modern Americans of the mid-European type and takes satisfaction that while some of us live "in Puritan New England among factory smoke and steam and stench and sewage, actual and human" he, "old now andconservative, is in the sweet air of the Westand among Americans only." He adds that while doubtless Kokovitch and Abrahamson and Cjoco and Vladitch are good Americans he prefers the Cabots, the Lodges, the Adamses, the Roosevelts, Alice included, and the Pinchots, the Wilsons, the Hadleys, and the Crosses, too.

Secretary, State Capitol, Hartford, Conn.
