weather, so we expect something unusual from her pretty soon now.
Alice Buckley Goodwin '21, and her husband spent Christmas

week in Chicago. She reports having enjoyed breakfast in the
diner with Ruth O'Brien '18. Ruth claimed she was going to spend
the holidays with Grace in Cleveland, but who was the mysterious
man who met her at the Chicago Union Depot?

Mary D. was entertaining a Montana Alpha O when she was
called on by a group of Minneapolis alums.

Edna Schlampp Johnson '24 was conspicuous by her absence
from the banquet. She really worries too much about friend hubby
to get all this publicity.

Elsa Steinmetz '18, was recently elected chairman of the House
Fund committee. She made a wonderful success of selling the
Christmas cards. We cleared nearly $200.

Winifred Whitman made a flying trip East during Christmas vacation.
Win is trying to locate an internship in New York or Philadelphia next
year—for this spring she earns the right to put "M.D." after her name.

CHI

We should like to bring to the attention of our energetic legisla-
tive bodies the necessity for a law compelling people to write on
their holiday greeting cards more than a simple "Merry Christmas—
Love,—Annabel." Then 'twill be possible to bring each other's
histories up to date at least once in a twelfth month. As it is, we
know only that scores of Chis still think of Chis when December
ends. I t is not such a bad knowledge for the new year, though, at
that.

Mary Adams, efficient as usual, proves an exception, for her
card brings the long-sought information that Gertrude Hall's new
name is Mrs. Allan B. Snow. Now, please, will some one send her
address?

Tweed's baby, according to its Aunt Mary, is "a darling child."
Mildred Hover writes a letter headed New York City and post-
marked Mount Pocono, Pennsylvania, to say that she is now living
in Rutherford, New Jersey. Figure it out, if you can!
And here is another puzzle: Ruth Dibben supplies news of others
in a letter which bears an address in Pleasantville, New York.
What in the world is she doing there—and why doesn't she say so?
Camilla Jennison Eder has been supplying in the Cortland
schools.
Edith Smith Hausner is school librarian in Vernon, New York
—or is it Verona?
The completion of her civics text book is to be Gertrude Shew's
next achievement, we hear. This is a share (though only a shade")
less terrifying than the geometry of last summer. There is hope
that she will in time descend to our level.
Helen Howalt, besides continuing her office work in Syracuse,
has been taking some extra commercial courses in the Central City
Business School.
Kennels of cocker spaniels are absorbing most of Ethel Haus-
ner Lattin's attention at present.
Edith Gardner, so they say, is pastor's assistant in a Philadel-
phia church.
While your attention is upon the Philadelphia region, you might
as well hear that Helen Schrack's address will be changed this
spring from that long familiar 5-10. "Having lived in one house for
the last twenty years," she writes, " I am expecting to be in a state
of confusion for months before and after the moving." Anything
