To Dorothy from Lillian: A Story (Part One)

Once upon a time,
in the 1920's,
a young gal kept track of the local
happenings that related to her life.
Her name was Lillian.



Upon the graduation of Dorothy,
Lillian gave the scrapbook to her...


Lillian kept track of sorority members,
theater parties,
bunco parties,
and birthdays...


...requests for submissions
to their school newspaper...



...not to mention Freshman stunts to
advertise school plays...


...and what appear to be other local happenings...


Who was Lillian, 
and who was Dorothy?


They weren't much different than the young
gals of today,
admiring the good looking athletes...


Photos of friends were lovingly clipped
from newspapers and pasted into the
scrapbook...


...along with well wishes,
class schedules,
and letters to Dorothy...


Who was Lillian?
Who was Dorothy,
and what did she look like?
