1900

Everett Woodman, son of Jim Woodman, writes me that his mother Ethel, staying at New London Manor for the winter, is doing very nicely. As president of Colby Junior College he is well aware of the problems which face young people in our colleges. In regard to this he quotes "At this time of war, and rumors of war, we appear to be living dangerously. There is a rising tide of hostility against the established order."

Elizabeth Emery, daughter of BrockEmery, sent me a Christmas card which had the picture of her eight grandchildren. They are a lively and entertaining group of youngsters of which Brock would certainly be very proud. The Emery family, sixteen in all, enjoyed Christmas dinner together and the young people added much fun to the festivities.

Apropos of the present state of unrest in America, Carl, son of Carl Guild, writes me that his opinion is, in justice to the large group of orderly students, riots and the take-over of college buildings by militant students should be dealt with severely.

Roland Eaton, son of Pa Eaton, reports from Charlottesville, Va., some activities of his family. His oldest son George is currently teaching at Albany State University. Daughter Ginger and. her husband are successful veterinarians in Charlottesville. His daughter Ann and her husband are currently in Venezuela on a research project and will eventually return to his duties as professor of anthropology at the University of California. Daughter Esther is majoring in archaeology at Pembroke College, Providence, R.I., and the youngest son Tom is a sophomore at Clemson U., Clemson, S.C. Roland takes not a little pride in the stirring activities of ten grandchildren.

A little research has discovered Ruth, daughter of J.M. Dutton, as the wife of Lt. Col. Herbert Reed, Syracuse U. '31. A very fine and cordial letter gives news of her family. Col. Reed, after thirty years of service as an army officer which has moved the family to many parts of the world, is now living in semi-retirement in Lawrence, Kan. Ruth has two daughters, one of whom is a freshman at Kansas U., Lawrence, Kan., and the other one, married and with her husband and two children, lives in Schenectady, N.Y. Ruth's brother John has two children and lives in Elmira, N.Y.
