Berenice, in her early years lived 1122 Mohawk St. & on the census of
1920 at 1337 Waterloo St. in Los Angeles. The streets were in the
neighborhood of Sunset & Alvarado Blvd. She attended LA Polytechnic High
school, graduating in 1920. Her graduation was delayed one year because
of the flu epidemic that killed 30% of her class. She was quite tall for
her time; as a matter of fact, was the tallest girl in high
school...5'9". Her interests at the time were fashion design and
participation in her high school sorority. She and her friends spent
their summers atthe beaches of Santa Monica and Venice. In those years,
Venice had just beenrecently touted the "Venice of the West", with
canals and gondolas.
She mether husband "Guil" while working for Pacific Telephone &
Telegraph in the early twenty's. (See Notes: Guilford Aikin).
She had a fantastic command of the English language. She liked to quotes
Spoonerisms;
Mardon Padum, this seat ispoccupied, may I sew you to another sheet?
Is her gone, have her went, has her left I all alone? Her can never
come to we, we can never go to she, oh, itcould not was.
"Good Morning, Madam" to Eve said Adam. "Good Morning, Sir" tohim
said she.
One bright day in the middle of the night, 2 dead boys got upto
fight.
Back to back they faced each other, drew their swords and shot each
other.
A deaf policeman heard the noise, came and shot those 2 dead boys.
If you don't believe me, ask the blind man around the corner, he saw
it all.
Her language at times, was a reflection of the many books she loved to
read
Shall we repair to the living room?
At sixes and sevens.
Dressed to the nines.
In the 30's she would go to Catalina Island with a girlfriend to dance to
the big band sounds of Glen Miller, Tommy Dorsey, etc.
