The Matt Jones Fall Roundup will be held Friday evening, October 22, the night before the Harvard game. Expectation v that the principal talk will be about our 55th Reunion next June. Already the College has assured us that we can be entertained at the Inn, and recollection of our entertainr ent there in '44 will whet our appetites tor staying there again. Fill": details abovr he Ro-tndup will be mailed te each membe.of the class.

front ot ihis writer is a neatly bound V ok of 123 pages entitled "Sketches From My Liaphrtok and Diary." It is written by JohnHenr Bartlett, former Governor of New Hampshire, 1919-1920; former President of the United States Civil Service Commission; former First Assistant Postmaster General of the United States; former Chairman of the United States section of the International Joint Commission between the United States and Canada. This is the seventh book that John has written, and according to the Secretary's tally, he and Phil Marden are now tied among the members of our class in the number of books which they have "authored". This book is dedicated "To the Memory of the Late President Franklin Delano Roosevelt" and doubtless its most interesting pages are those which treat of his relationship to the late President. Next to this one would place his friendship with the late Chief Justice Stone, and John's regard for this great man was shown by his recent attendance at the dedication of a memorial in Justice Stone's native town, Chesterfield, N. H. John has had an unusually interesting and significant life. No wonder he recalls it to himself and his friends in these years of leisure. One hopes that he will use some of this leisure in attending the Matt Jones Fall Roundup mentioned in the preceding paragraph.

New Addresses: Bob Burnap, Dartmouth Club, 37 E. 39th St., New York, N. Y.; Fred Smalley, Bryant Pond, Maine; Kent Knowlton, 82 Hillside Ave., Nutley 10, N. J. Kent has been such a regular attendant at the meetings of the Boston gang that we shall miss him very much indeed. He and Mrs. Knowlton are making a home for their daughter.

In his recent travels the Secretary had a luncheon engagement in May with ArthurStone, his wife, and his stalwart son and his daughter-in-law. He also learned by telephone that King Cassin was flourishing. In early August the Secretary and his wife were again hospitably entertained by Paul Jenks, his wife and daughter, at their exquisite camp at Whitefield, N. H. Paul is looking ever so much better than he did at our 50th; indeed, one doesn t recall when he looked the picture of health more than he did last summer.

An item in a recent issue of the New YorkTimes discloses that Kid Martin has bought a lot at Rockville Centre on Long Island and intends to erect a residence. For yourself or your new great-grand-child, Kid? Can't you answer this question personally by coming to the Roundup next month?
