zo THE Pow wow '24 you and Helen Heath are in cahoots on a poultry farm. Sounds interesting. I'd say that you have been pretty successful as it isn't everybody that can rear three chickens as pretty, popular, and charming as you two have. I-Ia! Ha! I'll quit at that but you must tell me brieflyl all you know of the old classmenf' It will be hard for Victor Taylor, if the city takes his franchise away from him and makes him take all of his gum machines down. But that about Janice Richardson is sure a knock out. VVho would have thought that she would become a regular beach comber and flash in the eyes of the masculine bathers? And so Betty Kaley is editor of the Los Angeles Times. As I think it over I recall her as being on the Squealer Staff. Rumor has it that Irene Knowlton writes articles on 'Reduction of Weight for Women' and that she has gained a hundred pounds in the last year. I also saw an advertisement put out by Hall and Kropp who run a Wearever Hoisery and Holeproof Aluminum shop in Salt Lake. This advertisement was in the Heart and Hand magazine of Ogden, published by Viola Hampson and Barbara Ulmen whose names always appear on the front page of each issue. fNaturally, as they are the editorsjf' While I was in Portland I met Ruth. Plowhead, as she now calls herself, and she told me that she had another big quarrel with her husband and got a divorce in his own court in Reno a few days before. I read that she is to be starred in a big new film, 'Second Iland I.ove.' I'd call that about two hands too young, eh! Kathryn Bacon is so bashful that she has passed up all of the leap years and is now running an old maids dormitory in Kansas City, with the familiar inmates, Kathryn Boone and Lily Deitrick. QFor the same reason.j Ruth Nicholson married a charming young man from San Diego last 'fall in Tia Juana. and now she is singing, 'How Can I Love Him When He Is All,3Over the 'House'. Edna Rice runs a boarding house in Huston while Theron Kc-ister is .an engineer on the Caldwell Traction. Edward Foster is a windy Senator and a worthy successor of Mr. llorab, while his better half, Violet Paxton, as we knew her, is a belle of Weishington society. About the best of all is Al Jensen who is milking cows with the rest of the Swedes back in Minneapolis. If I don't move on the cop will throw us in for staying up so late at night and you'll catch it when you get home. Besides I must get on up to Caldwell and see the United States Commissioner of Education, Mr. John J. Rae, when he visits the old school. Good-bye, I'll drop in and see you if I am ever back this way. Good-bye. What is that you say Miss Ellinghouse? I've slepty all of last period and ten minutes of this one, and besides I shouldn't snore so loud? Well, what can you expect with such nice springl weather? But say, why did you interrupt such a glorious dream?,' lVifTl6S30!l AL, K. Hoi.. WALT MARCH LYN C. DoY1.i:. NTELLA TOLLES VICTOR Form. Iva NEWMAN

'24 i THE POW WOW 19 Senior Prophecy So this is N-e-w Y-o-r-k eh! And who is the gentleman turning the funny levers on the front of the car? By the way, he is called the, motorman. George XVebb, you don't say? I used to know him back in Idaho. Come to think of it we were class mates. I must speak with him. Hello George, old top, how is everything? 'What, married now? I knew that the way you used to act back in Hi School one of these she sheiks would get you sooner or later. Have you heard anything about Victor Ford, of late? You don't mean that that little shrimp is a prize fighter and Jim Stevens is a chimney sweep. Say man they sure must have some smokestacks around here. Me, oh I'm making it fine, doing everybody I can. You remember Emerson Platt, don't you? YVell, he is a judge in a Reno Divorce court. He always was pretty wise matrimonially. And John Turner was the president of the Troy Laundry out at Star the last time I heard of him. That was in '4-9. Chaney is coaching in the big new Middleton Hi School. Marion Fry still runs around like a chicken with its head chopped of wondering wnat to do. Hell, this is my station, so adios. See you again. You said Dick Holt lived out on 93rd street didn't you? VVell, I'll go out and see him. Don't suppose he'll speak to me though since he has got to be such a politician. So Long. Say, there, you hell hop, where can I get a taxi? VVell, if it isn't Presley Horne! You say Donald Cleaver runs a Ford Jitney? All right, call him up, I must get out to Dick's. Hello Holt! How's the wife and-? You don't mean that you are single? You must have reformed somewhat. Not changing the subject any, but you know I rode down with Cleaver in his jitney. VVell, we ran over a traffic cop and who do you suppose it was? None other than Vernon Thompson. Cleaver told me that Dale VVakem had a job washing windows in the VVoolworth building and he won't ride the elevators so takes the stairs for it. The windows haven't been washed for about two years. Now that I have that off my chest we shall proceed. VVhat do you know of the old bunch? Well, well! and so you saw Glenn Shaver at Palm Beach taking pictures of the bathing beauties on the sly, while VVade Whiflin runs a very profitable optical shop in the same place. That SUT8 is a good one Mary Madden pulled. Just think of being the proud possessor of two pretty daughters and two bull dogs, besides. But Bonny Bardsley is spend- ing his time on what I should call a rather foolish question, but I guess if he says there is a way to get cream off from the milky way it must he true, because Inez and he were pretty good in Physical Geography. I don't see why these philosophers don't get some sensible questions, though. Take for instance, Faye Mende. She has figured it out that in ten years Jeff will be one thousandeth of an inch taller than Mutt. VVith the aid of Greta 'Watkins she is working on an extensive question: 'VVhere Gump gets his wisdom and how .Iiggs recovers so quickly. This will be explained by the maker of these cartoons, Vernon Drown. And so you think I ought to go out to the country club with you? All right, let us be gone as I have to take the train back west to-morrow. You sure held back a surprise for me. VVho would ever have thought that Brick McCall would climb to the leisure position of Golf Instructor. And Mary Shaw, a physical Culture teacher for the millionaire misses of the east sounds funny to my ears. Suppose we quit playing golf before I knock all the dirt off this course. I forgot to tell you that VValt March is one of the goofiest clowns that the Al. G. Barnes Circus Company has. As I remember, he was somewhat foolish in school. Gladys Schas is the owner of a great Mercy Hospital in Chicago, where Anna Jorgensen has been taking treatments for a broken heart. fShame on you.j WVell, I must catch a train for Minneapolis, I will be much gratified if you will take me to the depot. Los Angeles is quite a berg after all of the other towns I've visited. One of the best conductors I came in contact with was John Campbell on the McNeil road, owned by the millionaire automobile manufacturer, Dei-al McNeil. He is now engaged to the much read about clivorcee Miriam NVakem. How are you by this time CHE Mutch? Oh, and so
