Allen, Kansas University, Lawrence, Kansas. Dear Dr. Ajlen: Booking commencement Speakers seems to be the order of the day. Yes, we need one too, and you have been recommended to us as being an excellent one. A recommen- dation really isn't necessary for I have heard you on numerous occasions, the last time being at a Marysville commencement. Would you be interested in coming to Beattie for the High School Commencement, On May 187 If so, will you please state your price. I shall appreciate an early reply, sothat this matter may be settled soon. Sincerely yours, Wr). Yt). th hyroct Mrs. J. W, Skidmore, Senior sponsor
