CU-3 THE MAIQLBQIQQUGH DIAIQV C-65 i I der who it can be. Why, Mary Swartz! What a shock! I mean, what a pleasant surprise! Me: There's Janan Loetscher, the new Governess of the State. By the way, I voted for Margaret Kinney and Jean Mustard for Represen- tatives. I think they both have a lot of common sense, and I know they have oratorical ability. Jayne: Say! Neither of them has oratorical ability like Barbara Albertson's! Mark my words, she'll be Speaker of the House in a couple of years. Me: Yes, I distinctly remember the poise she displayed when she gave her oration in our English class years ago. fExcitedlyJ, Oh, where are my glasses? I can,t believe it's true! Yes, it is! 'Kitty Denlay, famous Hawaiian beach-comber, also world's champion diver for nickels and dimes.' There she is. Thatls Kitty Alden. And those awful looking chil- dren in nothing but sun-bonnets must be hers. And what wild company she's keeping. Look at that snaky Hula dancer. Why, it's Lucia Ray- mond! Would't Miss Blake be depressed? Jayne: She'd also be shocked to see Helene Goodell trying to break the tree-sitting record. But I always thought Helene would make a swell tree-sitter. Me: Well, at any rate, our class had two members that would be credits to any school. Louise Thomson and Doris Hass, poor people, they certainly were martyrs to the cause. Imagine anyone's having courage enough to go out and teach table manners to the South Sea Islanders. But they didn't know that one of the choicest dishes was lady, parboiled. Although I guess they had the satisfaction of knowing their pupils handled their carving knives in the approved manner. Jayne: And they also had the satisfaction of knowing that Orian Smith laid them to rest. Orian, you know, married the Reverend Mr. Jones, and after his death she took over his business, I hear she has made a great success of it. fLooking at the picture again., People always said that such dignity should grace a pulpit. Me: There are Mary Pike and Vernette Ripley. Jayne fexcitedlyJ: Where?,' Me: There, behind that sort of large man. Pike is covered up with ice-picks, or is it axes? Rip is pulling that old lady up over the cliff. Jayne: Why, I didn't know they took pack trips up the Alps. How long has this been going on? E691
