CONCENTRATING One hot evening I was walking through the Woods feeling rather lonesome because I had nothing to do. I came to the edge of the woods where a group of gypsies were' camping for the night. Iwalked over to them and started talking to an old gypsy woman. She offered to tell my fortune. She told me many interesting and amusing things which caused me to wonder about my classmates of 38 . I told her so, and she said, Why my deal girl, I can tell you how you can see what all your classmates are doing. I urged her to tell me how. Finally she said, If you will sit on this stump and twist your neck back to an angle of twenty-three and four-tenths degrees, and at the same time whistle and look at that open space between the trees you can see whatever you concentrate on. Wonderful, I reflected, and wanting to try my concentrating powers I decided to do it. Isat down and twisted my neck to what I thought the right angle. just as I started to whistle I heard the old gypsy lady muttering something, but just then I began to see my first picture and did not have time to worry about it. The first picture that met my startled eyes was that of my old friend, Harold Mar- tin. Harold is a football coach at Ohio State and his team is really going places this year. In a large hospital I see Lois Conine bending over a patient and as I look closer I see it is Harold Greer who crashed his new airplane, but won the race anyway. Relief for Aching Feet .
