1895

Members of '95 should be advised that class notes must henceforth be confined to space allotted by the MAGAZINE management. The rule is one column of space for 1-100 subscribers. So a class having one subscriber may use as much space as we are allotted. If and when '95 dwindles to one member and I happen to be that one, I shall, perforce, be secretary, treasurer and class agent. What a lot I can say about my class then—a whole column full! See Secretary Richardson's letter (pages 5-6) in the February issue.

Oar class has lost two members since the last issue. Dr. Walter Lane died of coronary thrombosis January 21 (see necrology columns) I attended his funeral.

"Willie" Wilson writes: "We were in Honolulu this summer. Had a grand time. Had many fine chats with Sid Walker '9l. Were gone from middle of June to the last of August, then up in the Berkshires until last Thursday. Your letter of November 16th came in due season but as I was busy farming at that time I put off a reply until now, when my farming operations are over for this year.

"I assume, of course, that we shall have some sort of a dinner, or "breakfast" as it was called last time. Beyond that I have no particular desire for any entertainment. I'd just like to sit around and visit. This is my own preference."

"Joe" Harley seems to be having fun with a new typewriter, a Christmas gift from his children. Mrs. Harley is recovering well from a serious accident. She slipped on the kitchen floor and fractured a pelvic bone and three bones in her right wrist. Anent our reunion, he writes: "The 45th reunion of '95!—Wah-hoo-wah! I'll surely keep it on my calendar but can make no definite promises at this date. So many things can happen: our youngest son's wedding may be on the docket about that time. The announcement is made this week. But I'll see later."

John Gault has not been in his usual robust health for some months.

"Bug" Folsom plans to attend the reunion. He and Mrs. Folsom have been spending part of the winter in Orlando, Florida. Before leaving for Florida "Bug" visited "Honest Dan" Watson at his home in Pittsford, N. H.

It seems that Austin, the Ant Palace King, has invented two war implements which he has submitted to army authorities. One is a double anti-air craft gun capable of firing 200 one-inch shells a minute to an altitude up to 30,000 feet. The other is a mortar thrown grenade operating on the principle of Prof. Goddard's rocket.
