Miss Cornelia M. Clapp,
Woods Hole, Mass.

My dear Miss Clapp,

The price of the tickets for the alumnae luncheon, to be held on Monday, June 13th, is to be $1.00 each. The treasurer who will receive payment for tickets bought for each class, is Miss Margaret Clark of the class of 1916. Will you please ask your class collector to make a list of persons attending this function, so that the list can be given to the treasurer, together with the money in payment for all the tickets ordered for the class?

It will be a great help to me to know who is to be the collector for your class. Will you please let me know this at your early convenience? Then I can inform the treasurer of the names of persons who will turn over money for the various classes to her. [Miss Clapp's signature in pencil]

It will be a great help also, to know who are to be marshals for the Fete at as early a date as possible.

Will you please let me know the number of your class expecting to attend the alumnae luncheon, by May 20th?

Since it has not been customary for the fifty-year and older classes to attend the big banquet held in Student-Alumnae Hall, I have not sent notices concerning this to members of the earlier classes. Each year I have written them about the banquet, and they have in every case decided that they would prefer to take the meal more quietly in the hall where they are staying. If this should not be the case with your class, the other classes would be glad to have you attend the banquet with them.

Yours very truly,
Ruth S. Rafferty
Alumnae Secretary.
