The sudden death of Sprague, mentioned in the April issue and noted in more detail in another column in this number, takes from us one of our bestliked members. Because of the relative isolation of his residence, in recent years he has not been able to attend our gatherings very frequently but he was always interested in college and class matters, one of the first to respond to any request made of our group. We all deplore his loss.

Sprague's death constitutes the sixteenth in our ranks (graduates and non-graduates carried on the class rolls) since the reunion five years ago and the sixty-third since our graduation.

The news from Harry Jenkins is good. He has made an uneventful and relatively rapid recovery from the very severe operation which he was obliged to undergo and at last accounts of a classmate who visited him "looks well and says he feels well."

REUNION

While in Concord recently the Secretary dropped in on Don Tuttle in his chromium plated and stream lined quarters in the new state office building. Prepare to receive from Don requests for pictures and other memorabilia of our callow days for exhibition at the reunion and send them to him even if you do look like something that the tide washed up. As a matter of fact you probably looked better then than you do now.

Perry and Mrs. Fairfield are now running "The Fairfield" at 1200 South Atlantic Avenue, Daytona Beach, Florida, "facing the ocean—all rooms with private bath and steam heat." They report exceptionally good business for the winter season, with all rooms filled for the entire period.

Reunion plans are progressing favorably and a good attendance is assured. Details will be presented in the regular letters from President Rankin. The Secretary would call attention to the opportunity offered by the Hanover Holiday, running the week following Commencement. From personal attendance at various sessions he can recommend the program as both instructive and pleasant.

For the second successive issue the Secretary is compelled to supplement his notes, already in the hands of the editor, with the announcement of the death of a classmate. After a period of invalidism lasting for more than ten years, Frederick W. Jenkins died at his home in Mt. Vernon, N. Y., on April 12. More extended notice will appear in the June number of the MAGAZINE.

Secretary, Hanover, N. H. Class Agent, 212 Mill St., Newtonville, Mass.
