Marilyn Lenz, Literary Editor of the Saturday Review of Literature, who has written poetry for the most widely published magazines, is helping the hostess pass out canapes. Artist and Art Critic, Rae Lamb, is discussing her painting, Stream of Life, with Professor Lois Hitchcock, author of the Pulitzer Prize winning book, Life's Glim- mer. Approaching them is Representative Quentin Clingerman, who is under Con- gressional fire because of his bill to cut governmental expenditures by ten billion dollars. Helping themselves to the canapes are, Charles Horst, inventor of a steel bath in which iron ore is very quickly smelted, and Esther Conrad, his private secretary, who holds the nation's typing record. Phyllis Staines, Emily Post of today, and Ada Dinsio, opera singer and restaurant owner, are talking over some of the points in Phyllis's newest book, Etiquette for Youth. Modeler of the EuNice Majorette Costume is Sally Wallace, famous for the major- ette schools established throughout the country. Sally is commenting on the costume to Eunice Mellinger, who owns the Mellinger Dress Shoppes, and Mary Jean Stone- rook, who has developed a new and very effective method for treating cancer. Lowell Sitler, president of the Sitler Oil Company, and Dr. Dick Ward, dentist, and inventor of a tooth cleaning mouth wash, are listening to an explanation of a new square dance created by Peggy Arkwright. Peggy, president of the Arkwright Square Dancing Studios, has contributed much toward developing better recreational benefits for the Americans. Pine Tree Grower Richard Shank and hotel-owner Marian Setley are discussing fire prevention. Richard is the author of that well-known book, Forest Conservation for Today. Marian is the owner of a chain of safe, comfortable hotels. Thomas Crump, president of the North Lima Trucking Company, which hauls building materials to all parts of the United States, and his pert, blonde secretary, Betty Boyer, originator of a dictaphone, is posing for a picture. Taking the picture is famous news photographer, George Creelman, who has won first place in the National Photographers' Contest for the second time in succession. Sitting at the plano is Barbara Ann Leo-nhart, concert pianist, who, having been under the instruction of Jose Iturbi, has held concerts in many large cities in the United States and Canada. Standing by the piano are Joseph and Santino Lamancusa and Wilbur Yoder. Joe and San, expert agriculturalists, own a chain of farms throughout Ohio, Wilbur, owner of a large fruit farm, is the president of the National Horticultural Association of America. Now, all gather around the piano to sing Auld Lang Sync. As they leave for their various homes they encourage each other to keep on being good American citizens, who try to make our country more democratic and more prosperous, and our world more peaceful.
