CLASS PROPHECY (CONTINUED) exhibition of fancy riding. There too we saw Gaucho Joe Rios, showing the customers how to crack whips. In a small building, Stuart Elder, a traveling salesman, was trying to sell masticated chewing gum, while Gerald Crew was serving hot dogs and hamburgers. Along the main street was found a dance hall in which Barbara Rose and Martha Jane Corwin were dance hostesses. In the last building we visited, the horticultural building, prize flowers were exhibited by Joe Henderson. I had to leave because I had an appointment at the Maison Pierce, the dress- making establishment of our old friend, Clifford Pierce. There I found Gera'dine Crew, his wife, acting as his secretary, Jean Davenhill, receptionist, and Elizabeth E'sterman, mannequin. There was to be a showing, and many important buyers were present, among them, Francis Dunn and Stanley Lewis. I also saw Mae Buss, who was selecting a trousseau for her eighteen year old daughter, Carla Cruncleton. Margaret Crossley, hotcha blues singer at the Folies Bergere, and Ruth Tucker, who told me that she had heen given, as the American model housewife, a trip to Paris. She asked me if I had heard that Agnes Stiasny was an instructress at the Conserva- toire de Musique or that Jean McCallum was librarian at the Archives Nationale. I had not, but at the time, was more interested in a new spring hat; so I asked her it she could recommend a good hat shop. She sent me to the Maison Marijuin, where I found June Lockhart and Marian Crawley. Manuel Salazar was the doorman. There I saw a face which seemed familiar. I was informed that she was Edwina Partridge, the prima ballerina of the Grand Opera As I walked in the direction of the Eiffel tower, I espied Roy McCallum, who I remembered had just married his efficient secretary, Doris Johnson. A very fetching cop in mustache and natty uniform escorted me across the boulevard: it was our old friend Bob Gray. Truly one sees the whole world in Paris.
