1887

Our most interesting note comes from our "class baby," Mrs. Emily Shaw Harris, 2419 Durant Avenue, Berkeley 4, California. We received a holiday greeting from her, and wrote her to send us the story of her life. This she did in a ten-page letter, too much to give in full here. She was born the June following our graduation.

She recalls most pleasantly a party Hadlock,Junkins and myself gave her and a friend, when she returned from Europe. It was a festive evening festooned by 26 old fashioned cocktails!

"What a fine lot of men you all were (and are)" she writes. "I wish I could have known more of you and your families, honest-togoodness Americans, of whom there are too few left these days of ologies and isms and new deals." She served on several different theatres of activity during the war, and is still a supervisor in the USO Scrapbook center and has made 379 books.

It is still urgent that we seventeen survivors keep reunion minded. Our committee in charge of the reunion activities will do everything possible to insure a good attendance. The secretary had a fine letter from WinfredRoss, and regrets that he seems to think that his "nerves" will make it impossible for him to be present. His major opus (perhaps we should call it "maximus") is apparently nearly ready to be sprung upon the world. He gives an impression of its importance, and a suspiciort that a new system of philosophical living is to be born. It seems as if it might be a book, since he writes that he has re-written a part of it forty times!

The secretary met White's daughter and her husband while wandering about town the other day—Mrs. M. N. Peabody. She said that Mrs. White had sustained a sprained ankle, so our usual call (White is at the Crawford House, St. Petersburg) has been deferred.

Secretary and Treasurer, Box 869, Clearwater, Fla.
