 ClaAA Pn pJtecy Ojxe fine day after graduation, “Porky McNutt took his fishing outfit and headed for Swamp Creek. Crossing over Sugar Bush Hill, he decided he needed a rest—so he laid himself down under a big, spreading, chestnut tree and fell asleep. The great error in “Porky’s” composition was an insuperable aversion of all kinds of profitable labor. “Porky,” however, was one of those happy mortals of foolish, well-oiled disposition, who took the world easy, ate white bread or brown, whichever could be got with least thought or trouble. On waking, he rubbed his eyes—it was a bright sunny morning. “Surely”, thought Porky, “I have not slept here all night”! Finally, after untangling his beard and looking around he got up and walked toward Crandon. On his way he met Farmer McPherson. They started a conversation which brought about each other’s identity. To his surprise, Porky discovered that 10 years had elapsed while he had slept— it was now 1953. Farmer McPherson got out of his wagon and he and Porky sat under a big shade tree and talked about old times! Porky asked what had happened to all his classmates while he had been sleeping, and Farmer McPherson told him all he knew. “Wal, let’s see now,” began Farmer McPherson, scratching his head. “There’s June Bingham—she’s living down in Florida with her husband, Don White. I hear they’re right happy, too, and have six kids—all boys. Jack Abney is “Buffalo Bill”, riding in the Kentucky Derby; and Paul Campbell is busy running a big dude ranch out West. Mary Carlson is a dancing instructor in Milwaukee—pretty good too, I hear. Howard Elam is still camping at Carter’s cabin. Emily Netzel is working at the ticket office at her father’s theatre—making good at her job, too. Mary Houle is a licensed “dear” hunting guide in the Argonne Reserve. Orlo Tinsman is a manager of a reducing school in Chicago and Christine Hayes is also in the big city—some wealthy fellow’s secretary. Cloma Fraley is teaching school at Siding 1%. Donald Torgerson is in Hollywood, running Clark Gable out of the movies. He’s the odol of American women, I hear. Helen Woline is a hostess at Klass’ Lodge and lone DeHart runs a “shop around the corner” of her own. She’s selling popcorn on a larger scale. Royal Kott is still a jerk—soda, I mean. Robert Zach has just passed his entrance exams for Vassar after years of hard study. Jim Paul gave his first concert in Carnegie Hall—heard that the walls collapsed. Norma Randall is happy once more as “Chocolate” has just come back. Sam Hoenig has joined up with Bob Burns, telling call tales. Wava Georgeson is still waiting for her Garland at Sleepy Hollow—poor little gal! Adelaide Waite runs a beauty shop in Crandon, and the women in town are prettier than ever. Elizabeth Steele is on the radio, competing with Judy Canova. Eugene Cottrell is down in Chicago ' Helping Orlo. Those boys were inseparable. Philip Schmidt is “flash” of the Argonne Forest. Junior Sparks is running his father’s store and the business increasing by leaps and bounds. Charles Sheldon is now proprietor of Schaefer’s store. Georgetta Gumm is midget rivitter at Lockeeck Robert Rowlinson is leader of the “Cubscouts”. Euleta Plummer is flying cadet in the WAACS. Mae Shields is author of the new Shields unabridged dictionary. Elaine Jacobson is owner of a canoe ranch on Mole Lake. Pete Predeth is “glamour puss” in Tarzan films. Elayne Kline is still trying to choose between the three Feucht boys—can’t make up her mind. Donald Chartraw is distributor of reclaimed chewing gum. Bob Carter joined the navy as an air-craft carrier. “Wal, I reckon that about covers everybody. Sure seems too bad that you’ve wasted all these years, sleepin’ like that?’ “Oh, I don’t know,” yawned Porky. “First time I ever got all the sleep I really wanted. Wal, so long. Guess I’ll go home and go to bed. I’m kinda tired.”
