Within Six Years.

NEWPORT, N. H., April 2O.-"Re-
membering the people is easy when
you give a little thought to the mat
ter" So declares Miss Anna Ken.
nedy. head waitress In the Newport
House here, who has a memory that
is the envy of many political and
business men of the State when it
comes to remembering names and
faces. During the last six years it
has been estimated that Miss Ken.
nedy has met and called correctly
approximately 10000.
One should always repeat the name
two or three times if possible, then
set in mind some characteristic
about the person addressed. For
example, she says, Mr.. Smith may
have gray hair, which he combs
smoothly, a la Valentino, while Mr..
Jones may have a bit of impeachment
in his speech. And so 1t goes, for
there are no two people in the world
alike.

stantly but also remembers any likes
or dislikes In most instances they
have regarding seats in the dining

gives him time to think.
This is the formula for success in

claims that martimony makes a

arship record shattered by him. For
three seasons he has been supreme,
finishing the last semester with an
average of 94.2 per cent.
To show that when a fellow gets
down to business and studies in a
home of his own he is able to con-
centrate as never before, Head
points to a three-month-o babe.

this student not in the least when
he becomes engrossed in his studies.

his successes. when I went before

Head admits that if there was a
lack of cooperation in his household
things might not run so smoothly.
But there is no such lack, he says
and pridefully. Never does he have
to wear out the carpet singing the
baby to sleep when he should be at

says.
