The changes that are taking place in the school book publishing arena were interestingly related in a letter of recent date from Ned Kenerson, of Ginn 8c Company, concerning "the promotion of pre-induction texts in physics, electricity, radio and the International Morse Code, aeronautical materials and maps for navigational problems."

Roy Bergengren writes of a 40th year reunion with Chauncey Colton of Duluth, Minn. He reports Chauncey to be in the top of condition, maintained by periods of hunting and fishing interspersed with a reasonable amount of legal work as a Judge of his standing is entitled.
Roy's son has been overseas for the past six months and his daughter's husband is a ist lieutenant in the 94th Division. At long last Roy has joined the Grandfather's Club, so that, with ever-increasing war problems of the Credit Union work, he manages to keep busy most of the time. He sends his best regards to all Potholeskers.
Ernest Brown of Wakefield, Mass., writes of the rejuvenation of his old bike during these wartime restrictions. "With the old bus on jacks for the duration, and a 1902 bicycle that I rode in Europe in the fall of 1903—and since sentimentally cherished—back in operation, my failing dogs are being kidded on to my transportation needs." He reports neighborly contacts with Orvil and Amy Smith and that Orvil is making a fine start on 'og pictures for the delayed 40th reunion.
