As the crystal slowly turned before our wondering eyes, we saw the old school building in Andover, and consequently the next thing we saw was our old schoolmates. who had graduated in 1928. The first person we noticed in the crystal was our old friend, Mildred Bailey, now Mrs. Allen Britton. She was seated on the bank of a beautiful lake, known as Crystal Lake, named for its sparkling waters. This is where their summer home is located. We see Myron Dain, who is still living on Main street in his old home town in Pier- pont, where it seems he gets all his inspira- tions for the wonderful poems which he writes. Doris Phillips, the cut-up of our old class is now the Martha Lee in the Cleve- land News and her answers to the lovelorn have set many a heart at ease. Miss La Dell Mead is spending her time in Washington State, where she is employed in the Harry Gray Sawmill Co. as private secretary. Forrest Cobb and Oiva Arnio, partners and schoolmates, are now seen. They have made a great success in the electrical world and are at the present time in Australia wiring Uncle Bim's mansion, which he in- tends to leave to little Chester. Ah! The misty whiteness changes. Its Broadway of New York. A beautiful sign is hanging over a shop of two noted dancing teachers. On the sign in golden letters are the names Grace Myers and Duncan Mc- Combs. The front entrance is crowded with lesson seekers. The scene changes. A large group of people can be seen crowded before a huge aeroplane. On the outspread wings are the words Spirit of Cherry Valley. Nearby standing on a newly-erected platform is Richard King, who is astonishing all the world with his brilliant orations. All is white and still, the wind blows, snow falls fast. In Alaska near the Yukon river is a small school house, with Shirley Marvin as a missionary teacher for the un- fortunate children of the cold north. She appears to be receiving a check of 31.49 for the month's salary. Another vision comes into view, it is Mrs. Kermit Lewis, formerly Miss Loleta McCormick. She is in Poland with her hus- band where they are giving music lessons to the interested Polish children. They are talking this evening of coming back to Padanaram, Where they are going to give a grand opera next July. The scene changes and we see our old home town. There is Emerson Gibbs work-- ing in the Citizen office. He writes scandal, society and sport news for the Sunday edi- tion of the Andover Citizen. He is gaining world-wide fame for his work. Again the crystal turns and we now sec a picturesque little town in France. There in a fashionable French language school. We notice a familiar face, it -is Virginia Ballentine, who has been studying French and who now intends to come back to Amer- ica and teach in Sweet Briar College, lo-- cated at Leon, Ohio. Oh? What is that? Such a confusion. We can hardly tell who is who. Ah, I see. there is a sign explaining the cause of the noise. The sign reads: Stop! Look! Listen! Tonight at 8:00 p. m. Maloney Sz Martin will present to the people of this fair city a most astonishing, astounding, bewildering array of talent ever exhibited in this state. Feats of strength, skill and daring will be performed by Maloney. Dr. Martin will tell you how to get Well and look well by using his famous: GINGER JULEP FREE! FREE! FREE! FREE! Cheap at half the price Ah! There is Stella Uehlinger, the belle and the smallest of our class. She has estab- lished a tiny but much used beauty parlor at the summer resort by the Shenango river. The river does not look as it did, it has been made into a fashionable bathing beach. There is Thelma Brooks, smiling as usual. She began her career by being private secre- tary to the Emperor of Japan. But the crystal shows her now as a manicurist to his wife, Wangle Hong Lee. They are in a beautiful garden with cherry trees all around them. We now see a great wide space. It is a desert. The Sahara. There is a sheik in flowing white robes. He is entering his harem. Goodness! There is Frances Miner. She must be the sheik's favorite lady, for shc wears the privilege crown. The crystal is showing us its last pic- ture. It must be fame, for the globe is in brilliance. The polite girl with the black hair started out to be an ofiice girl. But in some manner gained her way in to politics, and we believe she is going to be the first woman president in the United States. We recognize her as Ruth Cleland. As we leave, we thank the crystal for showing us so plainly the lives of our old school friends, and we are pleased that they have all been successful in their various walks of life. Amen. -Stella Uehlinger. Frances Miner. Q -0-0-0-Q-Q-O-O-9-0-0-0-0-Q Q PAGE 4
