PLACE-Calcutta, India The sun was beating down upon the streets of Calcutta, India, with rays more intense than usual for January weather. Few inhabitants could be seen in 'the streets. The only reason I ventured forth from my abode was the fact that today was the first of January, 1935, and I wanted to celebrate. As I walked down the street I saw a sign of a famous crystal gazer. I had never consulted one before, therefore, out of curiosity, I entered the studio. I could see nothing in the dim waiting room but lounges, draped with brightly colored Indian blankets. Tapestries of various Eastern designs adorned the walls. A single darkly tinted lantern sus- pended from the ceiling cast its feeble rays about the room. No one apparently was present, so I examined the rare curtains with which the owner had decorated the place. At the far end was a tapestry whose scrolls and figures purported some mystic Oriental symbolism. As I approached nearer, a voice out of the shadows behind it called in low liquid tones, This way, Madam. I was struck by the suavity of the tones, and by a strangely familiar note in it. The crystal gazer, dressed in expensive Mohammedan costume, stepped beside the tapestry. Beneath his brilliant turban was a very un-Mohammedan face. A small pointed black mustache gave it a somewhat American jauntiness. For all its familiarity, I could not place that face. The crystal gazer took me into a small room, which was rather dark, with the exception of a large luminous ball, resting on the top of a marble column. As the gazer bent over the ball the rays of the phosphorescent light struck across the side of his face. I gave a cry of amazement. I recognized that familiar face and voice. It was my old school friend, Frank Cunsolo. After we had chatted about India and his ventures' there, he consulted the crystal concerning all our old school friends. After many mysterious incantations, these arefthe things the crystal revealed. .
