Dorothy Bartlett Buck writes from California, where she is
spending the winter, that it is glorious there. She was planning to
attend an alumnae meeting. Her address is 1421 Rock Glen Ave.,
Glendale, Calif.
Charlotte Lowell, '03, and Elsie Tufts spent the New Year's
week-end in Canada, where they enjoyed winter sports with Dr.
Tozier's party.
At last we've located Edna Woodbury Webb (through the kind
offices of Christmas cards!) and her address is 414 Front St., Wey-
mouth.
Most of the active chapter and several of the alums* attended
the opening night of "The Kick Off," Frank Craven's play in which
Ruth ("Bimbo") Morris, ex-'25, had a part. She was here only two
weeks, but was out on the Hill quite often.
Kathryn Holden, '13, who is with the Dairymen's League Co-
operative Association in Newark, N . J., is living at 35 Waverly Ave.
Rena Greenwood Smith and Marjorie Dean are the latest recruits
to the bobbed hair group. They both look very sweet.
Octavia Chapin, 13, attended a meeting of the New England
Chemistry Teachers' Association in Bridgeport, Conn., on Dec. 5,
and spent the week-end in Connecticut.
Annette MacKnight Harvey, who lives at 18 Ware St., Cam-
bridge, is convalescing from quite a serious illness. Annette says
she would love to see any of the girls.
Alice Spear spent four days in New York early in December.
Besides doing the usual things one does in New York, she attended
the Tufts Alumnae Luncheon of New York which several of our
girls attended. Eunice Bassemir and Marion Bennett, both of whom
are teaching in their home town on Long Island; Marion Russell and
Marjorie Buchanan, the former continuing in the Henry St. Settle-
ment; Dorothy Houghton, '15, AVIIO is teaching in Richmond Hill and
taking courses three mornings a week at Columbia (Dorothy spent
most of those four days commuting between Long Island and my
hotel with papers under arm but we did have such a good time!).
Gertrude Bartlett Wilson was also there but left promptlv to get
her twelve year old daughter ready for a party. And Kathryn
Holden came over from Newark, where she is engaged in industrial
chemistry. Besides a nice visit with Mrs. Perry, Alice was able to
stay over for New York Founders' Day banquet, which was cer-
tainly a privilege. I t was such fun to see the many girls who had
been at one Convention or another, the Founders, Jo Pratt, Helen
Henry and all the rest.
Alice Harrington, '25, is keeping house for her father at 65
Raymond Road, West Hartford, Conn. Gladys spent Thanksgiving
there.
Blanche Hooper was in Hartford with Gertrude for the Christ-
mas holidays.
Frances Huntinton Harbison writes very interestingly from
Cooperstown. 1925 was a bad year for the farmers in New York,
with wet weather and early frost. "Fran" substituted for three
months this fall in the local school until a regular teacher could be
secured. Billy is in school and Peggy went while Fran was teach-
ing.
"Timmie" Brooks came back to the Hill and helped with rush-
ing and now is living nearby at "The Brown and Blue" on Packard
Ave. Willie Koelsch was also back for a week.
