Signing himself “Author Un- known” because he didn't know how to spell Anonymous, he. guessed the photos as follows: Top row, left to right, Zasu Pitts, Martha Raye; cenâ€" tre row, Mae West, Eary Snooks' bottom row, Greta Ga:")o, Mary Picléford and Gracie Allen. Just one good guess for the next, And righto we have another; For who- else could‘ she :be But our little sonny's mother. We wondered who the next could be. Whether it couki be Wilson or Trench she got; So we just say W. W. A. T. And‘ don’t mind if it’s right or not.

Then comes that face so fair That would make anyone rejoice We wonder who has won her And suggest the rector’s choice.

Little proving the truth of the poet’s rhyme which we publish be- low, “that face has been the same through all her life”. Only two slipped. up on Mrs. L. A. Hill, one named her Mrs. J. F. Heard, and another Mrs. Frank Hogg. Thirtyâ€" five correctly named Mrs. J. E. Smith, but the remaining four were called: every name in the club and some extras. “That fat baby” prov- ed especially baffling to the puzzlers and resulted‘ in the curtain for many contestants’ chances.
