years. don't see how she works
| it-and all the boys think she's still
just seventeen.
BAGS WERE FAyORs.
They gave these bags as fayors
during the german. and they are
too lovely for words. White satin
about ten inches long and hand
painted in the loveliest flowers.
They have solid gold tops with the
initials of the girl engraved on
them. and then a bracelet attached
to hang on your arm.
They went as usual TO the garden
party at Admiral Scales on Tuesday
night. and that's always pretty
cause they have the loveleist gar
den. Then they dance inside.
They graduated Thursday morn
ing. and this year the President and
Mrs. Harding were down and he pre-
sented the diplomas and they said
that he did IL quicker than any
body ever has. 1t usually takes a
half hour l think and he did 1t in
16 minutes.
Colonel Robert NJ. Thompson had
his yacht down there. He was one
Of the class of 1881 and they went
down to the unveiling and to at
tend Fay Doyen's wedding. You
know her father was a member Of
! that class.
So Emmie. Peg says that Colonel
Thompson turned his boat over to
the first classmsn every day and
that they took the loveliest trips
down the bay and one day they
went as far down as the battle
ships. He served the most won
derfuI box lunches to them with
fried chicken and sandwiches and
| everything and don't you know that
was fun?
She says he has a room down
stairs filled with all kinds of inter
| esting photographs and snapshots of
famous people who he has met in
ALI his travels, including loads of
! titled ones, like King Edward, and
| George when he was Prince of
Wales.
| oh Eml You know last year when
they presented the colors, at the
competitive drill, that the girl. of
the man who got them, KISSED him
'when she presented them to him.
You know the girl they are dragging
always presents the colors, after the
company Commander gives them to
her, then he presents them to the
Admiral. At least I thinks that's the
way of IL, so that kind of started a
precedent, and this year the, winner
leaned over and kissed his girl and
then they had a regular kissing bee,
cause Company commander kissed
her and then the Admiral and soon
all the officers came up for theirs,
but l think she called a halt.
SIX WEDDING JUNE WEEK.
There were only six weddings this
year. June week, usually, think they
have lot more than that
And nobody cried at the last serv-
ice In the little chapel. Last year
they say all the plebes brought pill
low cases and towels to cry on and
