1936

June. Roses. Weddings. Sunshine and rain. Heat and humidity. Hay fever. Watermelon. Apple pie and the Fourth of July. Not much is happening. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: On a day clear one kitchen drawer, one cabinet. Another day a buffet drawer. Follow with a bureau drawer, a closet. Then the basement, attic, and garage. Keep what's cherished or valued, of course. Let go "what might be useful sometime" but has not been used for months or years. Send others, including youngsters, their things warehoused over long after they have moved out. Enjoy space and relief from possessions. List for tax deduction price of items sent to charity. So much for THOUGHT FOR THE DAY. From Bax Fullerton, chairman of bequests & trusts for our executive committee, comes word of activity by our classmates in the College's charitable gift annuity, which, at our time of life, provides lifetime income of up to 8.7 percent for you and your survivor, and one-time charitable gift tax deduction of 45 percent. Call Dave Haraway at Dartmouth's Bequests & Trusts Office at (800) 451-4067 for a proposal specifically programmed for you. Bob Schwartz '39 phoned to let us know his brother our classmate Dan Schwartz, is comfortably in a nursing home and his wife Josephine, coping courageously with disability for many years, continues on her bounding, upbeat way. Both Dan and Bob came to Dartmouth from Pelham Manor, N.Y. There were 11 undergraduates from that small town then.
