Norwich bulletin., 1922-04-13

following Sunday they allowed HeaIey to
 sit out under the trees and I took the
 pictures that am enclosing. In the pie
 ture the good looking couple beside John Service and his wife are MT and Mrs.
 Romeo Dupuis. Dupuis used to have a
 store directly across from the trolley
 station in TaHtville and later he had
 place in the old Hartley building or Franklin street. His wife is a, sister of
 George Letender, who runs the Colum bian House. The rest are Mrs. Healey, her daughter Mrs. Becker-the fellow with the overcoat is MT. Healey and the young fellow is John CapIes, who for merly worked for the trolley company.
 John Service and his wife and myself, you will, of course recognize.
 Some crowd of Norwich folks to meet just by chance, as no one knew before hand that the other was coming to the
 hospital. MT. Dupuis has been a very successful real estate operator here in
 Los Angeles and in their vernacular
 ''They just love it here.'
 When I called on John Service in Pas adena. John was entertaining Pauline Frederick. now Mrs. Rutherford. and her
 mother. John and inc elder Mrs. Fred ericl have become fast friends.
 John has lovely home and we had q 1 lovely dinner party, and say, Lou. you 1 would Il1nh III tIllS country Mt615 l6Ili-
 ons are so plentiful that lemons would | be cheap, but when you realize that John | Service has a lemon that cost $2.74, you
 cannot call lemons cheap. We'll, that's what it cost him for 1-12 dozen assorted. l He bought a tree for $2.74 and two lem
 ons came on the tree, one fell off leav- | ing one solitary lonely lemon. It is still ] on the tree, Mrs. Service allowing no one 1 to pluck it. Mrs Service certainly makes
 a wonderful hostess.
 Barney Katz and family also live here 1 in Los Angeles. MT. Katz has disposed ! of his garage interests to a Norwich man
 by the name of Sirl1in. This Sirkin was
 printer and worked for Ansel Beckwith ! as a printer. several years ago. MT. | Katz has several properties in Hollywood, and is now putting up a large new apart ment house and a drug store. Dame Fortune has smiled on him here in Los Angeles, as he has been here only about two years not alone has he accumulated money, but has regained his health and

 employed in a clerical position in the
 sweIlest cafe in Los Angeles, called
 ''NIarcelles." They all want to be re-
