Her Memory a Card Index

Imagine a sort of card-indeX in the
back of your head where you could
stow away facts about every thing
from a theorem in mathematics to
your best girls favorite sundae!
How convenient that would be on
examination days and Sunday nights.
Imagine being able to remember the
names and addresses of several
thousand people, even down to dis
tinguishing John j. Jones from the
J.. W. Jones without referring to a
directory. 1t hardly seems possible,
yet that is what Miss Julia G. Fish
er, distributing clerk at the Column
bia post office, can and does do every
day in the year.
If she has seen your name and
number once she car remember it
without difficulty and send a mis-
directed letter to you without n
further ado. No matter hat there
are half a hundred Smiths receiving
mail in Columbia and nearly as many
Browns. Jones and Andersons, she
can tell them all apart by their ini-
tials and direct mail to them at the
right house or at least to the right
neighborhood.
At the beginning of each school
year Miss Fisher complies a list of
the names and addresses of the STU
dents of the University, of Stephens
and Christian Colleges and of the
University Military Academy. One
or two references to them and she
has them firmly fixed in her mind.
If an address is changed she makes
a note of it and that zoe is all that
is necessary.
At a casual glance there seems to
be nothing less interesting than
those bags of white envelopes all so
much alike that swarm in and out
of postoffice. But with a little exer-

else of the imagination they are as
exciting as a detective story. Miss
Fisher gets a great deal of fun out
of handling these sealed potential
tiles. Her remarkable memory helps
her here o.
She knows how enthusiastically
you corresponded with that girl back
home for nearly a month when
school opened and she smiled to her
self when your letters and their ans
wers dwindled down to a tragic n
a week, then one a month, and then
stopped. She probably does not know
what you look like but she can tell
pretty accurately whether or not
your newest best girl is fond of can
dy and flowers and shows by increas-
ing size and quantity of your letters
to father.
She is sympathetic when an omi-
nous envelope with Deans Office"
in one corner passes through her
hands and she can readily guess what
is in the swift interchange of letters
between you and father Immediately
after, for she knows quite well that
You don't correspond that ardently
all the time.
Not that Miss Fisher studies your
envelopes or even glanceS at them
more than is necessary to distin-
flush them from the others. But
handwriting has a way of sticking
in her memory as we'll as names and
she can't help noticing them. Her
memory works invOluntarily and not
by any volition. But nothing on
earth could persuade her to tell the
tales she sees writ large on your en-
velopes. She just smiles and smiles
and goes on quietly reading human
nature from squares of white paper.
