Sylvester West. Fr»tl Morsam. Dale Klahn, Fern Bender A. LONE cowboy leaned wearily against the corral gate. As he stood watching the moon cast Its silvery shadows upon the lighted ranch house, he liegan to wonder what hud Itecomc of Ids eltissniates of ’88. Twenty years had elapsed since he had last seen them. Perhaps their am- bitions luid been realized or even their wildest dream come true. Still watching the big silvery moon, hls mind liegan to wander more and more. He began to see a vision of these old friends. He sees his little friend. Sylvester West. He always was a good Ag student and now he Is running the experi- ment farm just outside of Isi ramie. A little farther west, he sees Joe Glenn and Amy Lawrence. They’ve taken out their forty acres and seem to be doing line. Now he sees two of his laill playing friends. Dint and “Arale. They've retired and have become hermits —they're having fun! Still out west he sees Dale Klahn and Kenneth Day. They both have nice big ranches now. He can not rec- ognize Dale's little woman, but Kenneth's is none other than Helen Marr. The old high school, where he spent those few years of fun. appears. Hen he sees Margaret Hays doing what Miss Bird used to do—teaching Home Ke. Here's Betty Slevers teaching the girls' gym classes and holding G. A. A. meetings. Fern Bender is holding down Miss Biddlek’s old chair and putting a cramp in the kids’ fun. Naomi Wennerliolm got tired of teaching in the country, so she moved to town and Is helping Mary Shepherd, who Is teaching foreign languages. When Miss Hanna retired. Kvclyn Wiskerke took over and they really have the stuff in the library. There’s Dale Scott or Scotty. coaching those Plainsmen of I.aramie High. He’s doing a good job of It too. Still in Laramie, he sees Janet Husted with a sjsirk- llng diamond and another ring to match. Rickey is the lucky guy. you know. He glances at the business sec- tion of Laramie and finds Ina Nelson and Mary Reese heading the F. W. Wool worth Company. Ray Watkins Is running the NKW Stratford apartments. Elaine Self is playing the piano at the Empress Theater every Tal- ent Night. There’s Alice Carroll running the Toss Taxle Cab Company. Howard Corsberg owns a grocery store of his own now. Alice O'Brien is running the New Method Laundry and Dry Cleaners. There's John Ambrose at the I’nlverslty teaching chemistry. He always was famous for smelling up the school. Now ap|K'iirs the dim outline of a broadcasting sta- tion. Jack McConnell ami Doris Soper are teamed to- gether as comedians on the Jello hour. Every Sunday mornlng at 9:00, M. J. Boyce is heard as Marco, the wanderer and teller of tales. His quiet tone and good manners are a great surprise. A little later Betty Jane Jones Is heard singing the songs you want to hear. Our cowboy takes a brief glance at the hospital to And Dr. Billie Kennedy, assisted by nurses Florence Johnson, Maurine Rogers, and Virginia Hecht doing a good Job of operating on some j»oor fellow. In Hollywood he sees Evelyn Eads and Thelma Hurlch in ptirtnership, designing clothes for Shirley Tem- ple and Jane Withers, while Mary Jane Mueller Is per- sonal tailor for Donald Duck. Then Is Edwin Hitchcock Jr. teachng architectare at West Point while Miss Betty Stewart Is the president of Vassar. the school for girls. Now he sees Koltcrt Robbins, a little grey at the temples, still trying to earn that key at the Cniverslty of Wyoming. Harold Platek Is still keeping Ids business strictly to himself. (He has everyone wondering what It is.) Hugh Henthinnn has given up being a steward on a ship because he gets sea-sick, so now he is a valet. Our cowboy set Bobby Ames, who calls himself a world-wide traveler, but It seems that all the farther he got was Casper! Way back east in Madison Square Gardens, our cow- hoy sees Thomas Bath doing hls tricks at a wild west (Continued on fagt 47) 3
