Yes, the philosopher that used to run around with a lantern hunting for an honest man. Well, the other day he dropped in at Candy- ,land, Uh-huh. He was still continuing his world-old search. ,Unfortunately the object of his quest still eluded his time-worn eye, but he did see and hear something that brightened his benign countenance. Seated at one of the tables were Lloyd Dennian and Lloyd O,Ncle, of the Dennian Si OiNele Detective Bureau of New York City, and'George Stuart of the Stuart Ranch largest in the world. You ask why they were there? I will tell you. 7 Mrs. George Stuart, nee Gertrude Riddlemoser had just received,a divorce from George on the grounds that George was too brutal.

George had hired these two rubber- heeled detectives to find the whereabouts of the class 0of 29 and here they new to report.

Soon the conversation was waxing fast and furious. t 3y the way, have you leard that Bill Cams and Anna Weller are teachinnr aesthetic daneinrr riotht here in D C V C ' 3 the Clty?, . Danny added a little to the rising conversation. iISpeaking of dancing and its re- lation to the price of eggs in Alaska, I took the kid to the circus the other day and recognized Glen Funk as IiChow, Chow, The W'onder Clownfi Was he doing his stuiI? Well, I should hope to eat east-off rubher heels? The Sleuths had found that Erwin Reinholtf the noted producer had transferred his activity from South Omaha to Hollywood. He is going to produce Winona Hux- ford,s latest scenario, i3X11 Our Geese are Swansii Some of his choicest geese are Vivian Conser, Evelyn Murphy and Ruth Seudder. Dean Cole and his wife, whom I recognized as lieva King, were living'in Central Africa. Dean was a noted lawyer who specialized in divorce cases between the African natives. ' In Sweden they found Agnes Anderson, who had married Jack Page, both of whom were typing twelve hours a day by the light of the Midnight Sun. Howard Cook and Mal'qaret Bay were livin hat iIv on their oat dair' in , c . a P . ca i Sw1tzeriand.

Kenneth Campbell was Chevrolet dealer in Siberia. Just then the little party looked out the window a minute and there they saw Clifford Rose just driving into the town, bringing,r his cream and eggs to the Powell and Leamons produce station. They were delighted to see these old friends and scanned the street in hopes of seeing more of them. .

I And if that wasn,t Vincent McMahon saunteringr alongnfrom his work at' Skaggs grocery store, singing icJust Another Day Wasled Away. Tile detetetives returned to business. Theyire real business men. In Brazil, they ran across Ralph Johnson, the hi5:r game hunter, out bagging sparrows for the Central City zoo.

He said that if tips held out he hoped to enter a condition of matrimonial servitude soon. ' Next day the Sleuths went to see a bull fight. The President of Mexico, and his 3. -g.;ga 1 n 9 q .
