Ned Brown, although not far from Hanover, is not often heard from. He is described, however, as a bit older and grayer than he was, but just as slight as ever. He is in the decorating business at Windsor, Vt., with his two sons under the firm name of Edward T. Brown and Sons, and is twice a grandfather.

In addition to his teaching activities, Loring Dodd is in charge of the "Fine Arts Course at Clark University," which has brought to Worcester annually for many years an astonishingly varied collection of the leading exponents of the theatre, literature, music, drama, art, and the dance.

We do not often hear from Bill Edwards, so that a recent letter from him was much appreciated. After many years in the oil business, he is now farming and raising livestock on a half-section of irrigated land in Emblem, Wyoming. He seems happy except for worry as to whether the water supply will hold out His son, now fourteen, is attending high school at Greybull, Wyoming.

Alvah Fowler certainly knows the face of the United States more intimately than almost anybody else. Ever since graduation from the Thayer School he has been topographical engineer for the Geological Survey, and has mapped areas in all parts of the country. One of his recent important jobs was the accurate re-survey of the boundary between Maine and New Hampshire. Just now he is working in the area in the vicinity of Paterson, N. J. His elder daughter, Mary Elizabeth, was graduated from Smith in the class of 1937, while the younger, Anne, is an undergraduate in the same college in the class of 1939.

John Redington has changed his business connection to the Latham Litho Company, 230 Park Ave., New York. The type of work which he is doing remains the same. He continues his daily trips to New York from his home in Wilton, Conn., a hundred miles each day.

Ned Yeaton has been heard from. His letter was not very expansive, but it did contain the information that he has been conducting, is now conducting, and hopes in the future to continue to conduct a general insurance business in Seattle. In his thirty years on the Pacific Coast Ned says that he has seen but two 1900 menPaul Redington and John Mathes.

Secretary, Hanover, N. H.
