FULLTOP ECHOESII 'fBut, I asked, where is Sara Taylor? You know she and Thelma were roommates. I was just going to tell you-you know Sara was sworn into the Man-Haters Club in 1927, but now she is married, and also has a career. She has established a home for homeless children, which is a howling success. This little three-year-old tot is one of her chargesfl That sign-'White and Tate, Incorporated'- what is it? 'fOh, you know Nita White has an Eye-opener Factory. The latest fad is to shade the eyes the same color as the dress or suit. Nobody is ever seen nowadays with blue, brown, or black eyes. The color changes with the costume. Nita got her start with a lip-stick factory. When she was packing her 'duds' preparatory to leaving Davenport in 'Z 7 she found that her lip-sticks were so numerous that it was impossible to ship them to Georgia. Accord- ingly, she started the 'White Lip-stick Factory.' With her marriage the factory became 'White and Tate, Inc.'-Manufacturers of Eye-sticks. I gasped. 'tlmagine Nita a business woman! 'I Oh, lots of those flippant class mates of yours are business women. Helen Murph is editor of the 'Port Lenoir Gazette,' issued twice daily. The paper has a very wide circulation, which fact may be due, in part, to the original cartoons contributed by Willie Lew Crowder, who has taken the place once held by Bud Fisher and Geo. McManus. . 'fLib Van Dyke, her roomy, has a career too. She has taken the honored place of Gloria Swanson in the movies, her husband, Mr. Wilson, is her di- rector. On the hill across the way is Davenette Col- lege, established a few years ago by Betty jo Thompson. She is a second Miss Brown. There are about eighty boarding students and twenty-five town students. Betty Jo has made an excellent suc- cess, and enjoys to the nth degree her position of authority. 'fOh yes! and Agnes Kale is a multi-million- airessli' I have ceased to be surprised, I exclaimed. But beware of these get-rick-quick schemes. No, really she is English prof up at Davenette College. But how, I questioned, 'fdid she get so much money? Rich relations? No, she revived that Spenserian stanza bunk you studied at Davenport in 1927. Neat little for- tune! Maybeth Stiedley and Juanita Rouse are offi- cial organizers of revolutions for the college stu- dents against the faculty. They are very successful in their work. Page T wenty-One Jettie Shaver is the proprietor of the lingerie shop across the street, went on the guide. f'The name of the worthy establishment is 'The Shaver Silk Shop for Every Shape'. HBut, I interrupted, 'fwhere is Gwyn? She and Jettie had this desperate crush. Gwyn Lenoir is famous! After her part as a mandolin player in the Senior Class Play, she be- came interested in music and succeeded in perfect- ing the bicycle-harpette-an instrument similar to the harp. This is not strange, since she was once chief-tooter! t'Speaking of horns-that reminds me that Mary Seehorn has become a tennis champ. You know well she played back at school. At present she holds the world championship. Helen Wills is com- pletely eclipsed. Treva Hedrick, another Lenoir girl, also became interested in athletics: so it seems, since she be- came a Leeper. ' Mildred Mullis and Carmen Frye are the mar- velous musicians we hoped they would be. Carmen has finished her studies and is now touring the United States. Mildred is completing her musical education on the continent. We are expecting great things of her too. Mile, Cleta Black, a metropolitan opera singer, will make her first appearance on the concert stage of France on October 6, 1938. Mademoiselle Black is the favorite dramatic contralto of today. She has sung in many parts of the old world, and America is at her feet! 'LI-Iere we are at the Randy Kitchen. Let's get the enfant his sweets, I actually got in a few words. t'This shop, resumed the guide, 'fbelongs to Nell Binkley. She showed a marked aptitude for invest- ing new candies and sweets in Mrs. Kraft's classes. She has a chain of candy shops, but the Binkley headquarters are in Port Lenoir. We alighted from the aero-auto, and were en- tering the store when I stepped aside to let some girls pass. Who could they be but Flora Dula and Coline Powell. I learned that Flora had become a distinguished artist. She had just signed a contract to paint the portrait of the Prince of Wales. Coline has been serving as her model, and will resume her posing when Flora returns from England. But Coline,l' I asked, wasn't there another member of our class? I seem vaguely to remember having a lot of scraps with someone. Oh! she announced, uyou surely must be speak- ing of your sister, Evelyn. t'Of course it is Evelyn. But when is she?l' Why,7' laughed Coline, t'Evelyn is the damsel disguised as a knight or guide who has conducted you to Port Lenoir.
