Pricisilla Fletcher Jenkins has written, a newsy letter form Milnthrope, Westmorland, England. She writes that she and her family have enjoyed receiving the Alumnae News. Her three children seem to take particular pride in knowing that their mother once attended a girls' boarding school. Priscilla feels that this is an English attitude that she as a good American, ought not to encourage. We can't resist quoting a bit from her letter: "The Jenkins boys are fourteen and they love Latin. It is rather amusing to hear them inquire for help from me when I haven't seen the inside of a Latin Grammer for twenty years. As there are a few Roman remains in England, it make the Latin seem more real, and there are times when we think the Romans were using good judgment to leave this island."
