4.9615 fo fga cfczm of 35 Mildred Hartline In tender years the world was small and warm, From crib to arms, And edged by love and nursery walls. And then it spread-that world of ours- But still so small and safe, Across the iloor and through the hall. And then one day it grew a bit: A path led straight down to the gate Across the orchard to the brook, A bird flew screaming through the air, A finny splash in rippled sun. Weary feet went plodding home, The world was great but we were content, For now we-'d seen it all. There came a day-we went to school, Strange and fearful The world appeared. But from that day-a new world sprang, One to be conquered And one to be known. Proud and gay those years fled past, Strong young feet that knew the way. Surely a world would see our stride And welcome us with outstretched arms When we had reached the twelve years' end, For then we'd learned it all. But now we stand at the outer gate Ready for work, Ready for life. And somehow the world has grown over night To a world of terror And lonely space. A Weary wail from proud young hearts, Heads bowed so low in humble fear, For now we know-there is so much to learn. l21l

L22 .f 'zacficfioni 'tom montana James Snider Marshal CDippyJ Doak is going to be an artist, and as his subject he'll probably draw advertisements for bathing suits. Jerry White and Milly Miller are going to originate a new kind of Apache dance which will be a cross between a Sioux ghost dance and a Cheyenne death song. It's sure to stun the critics one way or the other. Burrel Weaver, also known as4 Squirrely, Snipe, Hammer-head, is said iby Smithyto be a lady's man. It's a pretty safe bet that Weaver'll be a life guard in the Hawaiian Islands. Earl fRomeoJ Stevens, better known as Twinkletoes -that battering ram of the football team-muscle-bound, idol of all women, and he-man of the basketball team-is gonna' catch the first freight headed for Hollywood to take the place of Clark Gablefin the hearts of bQll.ons of feminine admirers. fIncidentally, Steve paid me good money for this.J Kenneth C2nd classl Metzger has got a lot of work ahead of him. Bein' sym- pathetic and soft-hearted, he's decided to clean up the slums of New York. Jack iBar-rooml Banke is air-minded, or you d think so if you heard the answers he gives in English class. As a transport pilot he'll be flyin' from New York to Los Angeles. Ruth iLog-rolerl Willsey is a pretty good clerkg but, not likin' indoor work, she'll be a lumber jack. Ruth iShock-proofl Beardsley will be climbin' telegraph poles for an electric company. If your lights go out, don't blame it on to Beardsley, because she under- stands electricity and doesn't make any errors. Lawrence CI-Iigh-pressurel Zupke is in the milk business, but bein' smart and not cravin' hard work, he figures that being a salesman is pretty soft. His technique will probably resemble that of Elmer Blirt, but he'll sell more stuff with less soft soap. Lane fCross-cutj Dalenberg is pretty handy among tools and spends most of his time in the shop. He oughta' be a good carpenter. Rex fFleetfootJ Shreve claims he's gonna' be a skater-most any night you can see him practicin' for the 1980 Olympics. He's been skatin' since boyhood, and hes gonna' turn professional. After an argument with Kenneth Jesse, you might figure he's got a bad dis- position-with little sympathy for anybody. But this attitude isn't even skin deep or it doesn't last long. Jess is soft-hearted-at times he's plumb motherly. For this reason he has chosen his life work as a nurse. Don iBox-carl Beck is going to be a traveler. I-Ie'll probably be traveling as a first-class passenger on a freight train. 'lhe reason for this is to break the monotony of the gentler methods of travel. Joe tCoyo.tel March is gonna' go west and go gopherin' around the hills to see what gold he can find. As a prospector, I think hell be unrivalled. I've seen him look all day for a book, that Sam McCormick had, untli he found it under a desk. Ben fDead Eyel Harvel is sure handy with a rubber band. I be,ieve he can shoot a spit-wad through a four inch block of wood. Anyhow, he drew blood on the back of Mose Bachman's neck. Because of this unusual gift of making hi-powered ammunition, he'll be a munitions manufacturer. If Chester fBlackjackJ Borst traded voices with a bull-frog, the change wouldn't be noticeable. By this, I don't mean that he croaksg but his voice resembles the buglin' of a bull elk-can be heard for miles on a clear day and rings like a guitar. As a public speaker and guitar player he won't even need an electric amplifier. If everybody's voice was like Chester's, the makers of electric amplifiers would have to go out of business. Hank CCOnversationalJ Knapp can talk the arms off a dead man. Because of this unusual trait he'll be a barber. Right now, he can give you a haircut that'll make an Injun's scalp-lock look like a last year's bird's nest. Mary Mae Dreitzler isn't a noise-maker like Mose Bachman, but she's gonna' work in a broadcasting studio to produce the sound eiects. She'll pound on a rack with a hammer for the sound of Mose gettin' hit on the head with a spit-wad. Keith fCharlie Chanl Dalrymple doesn't read detective stories for nothing. He'll be a railroad bull to keep travelers from using the freights. As he's a friend of Beck, Keith will probably over-look him. Beck would be covered with so much grease and dirt from ridin' the rods that it'd be pretty hard to tell him from part of the running gear anyway. Dorothy Harroff is gettin' a lot of secretarial experience from Mr. Moore. She'll keep at this business and be a stenographer and secretary for some politician. Maxine Shaffer bein' the quiet, bashful type, will either be a chorus girl or work in a night club. Wanda Walter is an undersized proposition, but size nor weight don't count now- a-days. She'll be broadcastin' over the radio as a homemaker. Mary Hamilton is going to be an air-hostess. This job ought to appeal to her as she likes airplanes. Bessie Crothers is going to be a college coed. She'll stay in her freshman year for the first sixteen years. Agnes Kovich will be elected as a supreme court judge. She'll find a way to arbitrate and avoid the supreme court battles that are now becoming so popular, Carol Sebasty will be a farmer. She'll probably be a champion corn-shucker after farmin' awhile. John fStarJ Schultz is a noisy gent, and he's got a yell that sounds like the death groan of a prairie hen. Right now he's a sports reporter, and he'll probably keep it up.
