"BANQUET NIGHT"
' 'Once in so often,' King Solomon said, Watching his quarrymen drill the stone, 'We will club our garlic and wine and bread And banquet together beneath my Throne. And all the Brethren shall come to that mess As Fellow-Craftsmen—no more and no less.' " (Kipling)
"NO MORE AND NO LESS"-our men are scattered and it's too much to hope for, but there are many near the big citieswhat excuse have they? Take note, gentlemen, where do you stand?
BOSTON: Jack Devlin: "Thursday, April the 27, seems best for us Place will be the Parker House at 7:30 (cost of supper might prevent some from attending and so letting that carry over another year). Beer and movies at al. Lansburgh and McCray on the move. Other alumni welcome to drop in."
CALIFORNIA: (Notice by postcard of '37 Night from local gent.)— Bill Miller: "Am working in the production end of the Thermador Cos., manufacturers of electrical heating apparatus, soon to be in advertising and sales promotion Working in the factory has been good for me.

He also said you don't have to look very hard to see Fletcher, Chief Hallisey directing Carnival traffic, and the snow sculpture—which was the biggest damn thing ever." Mort Berkowitz: "All well again after five weeks of the flu. I'm not engaged to no one and no one is engaged to me." (Guess he forgot the Alumni Fund.)
PHILADELPHIA: Hal Parachini: "April 29 is the date at 6:15. The place will appear via postcards later. Tourists call Sey Ochsner at Penn Med or A 1 Sutter at Germantown Manor. The call of the old home town is certainly stronger than ever
going to try to get up there during spring recess."
THE SOUTH: Dick Smith: "Of course, from time to time, I get fed up with it all, think that I am not getting anywhere, not making any money. But after all, what I am doing, and the rest of us too, is pretty much in line with the old economic concept of saving: foregoing present pleasures for increased future advantages. .. .in the last two weeks I've worked every night except Tuesdays.... had absolute charge of the toy business from the time the merchandise entered the store until it was in the customers' hands. .. .am general utility man now."
LOYALVILLE: "Incidentally, if there is any way that I can help, whether by writing letters or doing anything else that needs to be done, just drop me a line and I'd be glad to do what I can."
'They ate their whack and they drank their fill,
And I think the rations has made them ill, For half my comp'ny's lying still Where the Widow gave the Party."
