6, Vip It was midsummer on the old plantation Out on the southern oleander enshrouded veranda sat a young gentleman Sweet fragrances drifted to him from the dew starred magnolias Dream ily he drifted back to the old days at Union Down the path, on the wings of the night, a pan orama appeared who is that negro maid in the picture? June Shook? Say, she's qulte an actress I hear she's making a thousand dollars a week' And to think she got her start in 'The Ready Made ram ily' back at dear old Union Look' There's someone slipping in a window' Goodness, I hope they catch him Ah' There, they jerked him through Oh listen he is getting a good thrashing I understand now, it is Clifton Reding Will he ever learn to get in before 4 30 A M ? Even big band leaders can't toot their omn horn lil Clifton My that was a good rodeo largie Wofford stole the vhole show She raxsed those broncs on her farm, 'Wofford s Paradise' She had an audition the other day The Metropolitan Opera says she's the best singer they ever heard She turned the offer down though just cannot get away from being a farmerette So you are the former Miss Ruth Moore Life ae a housewife seems to agree with you H always thought you would be a nurse as that was all you could talk about, unless it was well maybe we had better let the past bs. What a big farm' And six tractors' Why that must be Leonard Hedge Jr's place Oh, I see it is Hedge Ir and SONS He seems to be a prosperous man and to think you could get that way farming Maybe he earned those B's in Mr Boevers' Ag class Oh, he has a very popular band, I understand the prosperity now That's him coming, whistling a mixture of Caledonia and Hubba' Hubba' Hubba' Why all the noise? Oh, 1t's a basketball game between the former Dorothy Shook's and Jan Popl1n's children. Dorothy's boys seem to be loslng the game. Janice, your daughters are very good. I guess you have the advantage of more subs than Dot. Hello son. Say, you cou1dn't be Paul Vestal's boy could you? That's what I thought, you look just like him, Jun1or. Are you the only child? No? There are five more of youo That's a n1ce family, 1sn't it? Tell your dad hello for me. I must be getting on to see the others. Well' Well! Senator St. Clair! This is a surprise. How is the St. Clair family? understand you are the greatest speaker in Washington these days. I guess we all owe a lot to Mrs. LaFon, especially the speech class. You're in a hurry? Oh, I see you have to pass five more bills today. Well, good luck. There is something strange. That's undoubtedly Olive Whittington, but she's married now. hat? She isn't Mrs. R. G. Parnell? BBBBBut-- Well! Wonders will never cease! A Marxne you say? And me met him at the bus station! Once there was a sailor boy, he lived in Tennessee. Now he is the husband of our own Ruby P. Let's look in and see her. Do you see what I do? There's two little sailors and two little waves!!! That's being true blue all the way 'round. I hear a lot of cows. So Joan did major in dsirying. She said shs'd never live on a farm. Ha. That was a good one. She tells me she's never live any place else now. Maybe winning that prize for being the best milker in the U. S. inspired her. The prize? It was a jersey cow and a ten karat gold milk pail. ll 1FEK'.7 H !1- A D.-agp: ldfncku 1 I 5 39 i me marched n . . I
