Dear Ted
I did not fal to note

cord with your opinion of his ability
as an mstructor. Perhaps at the time
we were his pupils we thought we
knew more than he dd,
It is hard to realize that it is more
than 27 years since 1 was a student at
Centre Hall, but when 1 look into a
mirror and see my gray hairs 1 know
that ‘tempus has been fugiting. The
Winter of 1902-1903 was the last 1
attended school, although 1 didn’t leave
Centre Hall until the spring of 1504.
I noted in the last issue of the Re.
porter that next year's Grange Ene
campment and Pdr will commence
August 20th. I am due for a trip
Fast, it having been ten years since
I have wen east of Chicago, and I
would like to be in Centre Hall at

ahead to make any plana Haven't
had any vacation so far this year. but
