Norman Smith runs a saw mill in a small New England village.

Claude Williams, one of the best lum- berjacks in the Steel Lumber co. , recently set a new record by cutting down two redwoods in one hour.

James Barnes runs an ice cream wagon and Laura Belle Gamble who has become Mrs. Barnes goes along with him to dip the ice cream. Vera Whaley was found wandering on the beach in Tahiti suffering from amnesia. Her fellow sufferer, Dorothy Jones, could almost but not quite remember the last time they ate. The victims were taken in to the little grass hut of tender-hearted Mary Nell Foster and Loretta Lister who have gone away to forget. A mist comes before my vision and I can hardly see - - something is all wet- - Ah yes, it's the ocean. Swimming lazily about is a Merman who I-believe is Mr. Haller---no it can't be. There must be something wrong---just a minute. I regret that the prophecy must be discon- tinued at this point---it seems that someone sub- stituted the fish-bowl for my crystal. 4
