451 41 I0 Irene Hale We see Irene Hale living on a small farm just south of the San- gamon River with two girls of her own. She married John Kirkpatrick after graduation and they had the two girls. Irene is kept busy ' taking care of the girls and doing the housework. Irene thought John had to much work to do so she hired Chuck Paxton for the hired man! Farming is a big job, you know. Tootie Kirkpatrick The sunday after graduating Tootie was married to Carl Carter. She lived happily with him nine years, but at the end of the tenth year, Tootie wished she had stayed single and had remained an old maid. She divorced Carl and took care of their little farm the rest of her days. All Carl left her on the farm was his old hog to feed. Barbara Koopman Barbara is now Mrs. Carl Carter. It seems that after ten years, she convinced Carl that she was the wife he needed. After Carl di- vorced Tootie he married Barbara and at the present they have two sweet little red-headed girls that look just like their mother. Thomas Shubert Tom is quite happy old man by now! He waited for Colleen Taylor to get out of school and then they got married. Tom is working in Chicago and Colleen is taking care of their home located just across the street. They have one boy and a baby girl. The boyfs name is Billy and the girl is Roberta. They are making their married life a great success. Clara Siems We find Clara doing a very difficult job. She is working on the pipe line with her nsteadyn boyfriend, Jim Ott. They are working very hard so that they can make enough money to get married and raise some little red-headed girls like their mother-to-be, Clara. Pat Taylor Along the railroad track west of Bloomington we see an old hut where Pat Taylor and Ted lest are living. It seems that after five years all of Pat's boyfriends and Ted's girlfriends got married, so while they were looking for someone to live with, they found each other. Since Ted is only making a small salary from his work, Pat and he are living in just an old hut by the tracks. Noney isn't everything, is it kids? Janice Tipsord In 1956 we find Janice married to Dick, with four sets of twins, running around their new house which lies across the street from the Mennonite Hospital where Janice is working. They have hired Ted West, one of Janice's old boyfriends, as a baby sitter--and believe me, he really has his hands full---especially when Janice comes home from work! Arthur Woolley Arthur has just started his own printing office and is now head of the Saybrook Gazette. He asked Janice to marry himg but since she wasn't ready to settle down when he asked her, so he is still hoping. Each week in the nwanted Columnn of his paper we find the following: WANTED: One wife for a good wealthy man! Don't break his heart!!
