1912*

Your Secretary is astonished at the dearth of news in this centre of the universe that is also the Nation's Capitol, and would consider it a favor if every man jack in the Class of 1912 would drop him a line before the week is out,—one word about some other 191 a man he has seen, two words about his wife and family and three words about himself. Address: Room 4405, Munitions Bldg., Washington, D. C.

Elmer Chapman sends the Secretary a letter from Mrs. Paul Moyer, at 125 S. Stone Gate Road, Lake Forrest, 111. The Secretary seems to recollect that an obituary for "Skinny" was published last year, but for those who did not see it, it should be said that Skinny passed away on July 16,1940. He had been ill for several years, and desperately so since the preceding Christmas, when it was diagnosed as TB. of the larynx. Skinny was born on Mar. 14, 1891, at Hershey, Pa., and came to us from Mercersburg. After Dartmouth he took a degree at M. I. T. in 1913. He was connected with the Aridor Cos., and had been experimenting with heavy chemicals. He left a daughter by his first wife, who is Mrs. Arthur Burrows Jr., and is survived by his second wife, Elizabeth F. Moyer, and their 10 year old son, Paul.
