l sf office. Charles West, who sits gazing soulfully toward the clouds, now has a school of Synf thetic Dancing for young ladies. Doreen Alabaster has taken a day off to congratulate her former class-mate, Mayor McKethan. She controls the greatest cotton land in the state, so is rolling in wealth and a Packard-eight. Walter Campbell, cotton-broker, is seated beside her telling why it is cheaper to move than to pay rent. At the High School many old graduates are teaching. The Class of '27 is represented by Ina Davey, teacher of the Hunt and Peck Method of typingg Ina Louise DePoe, busy reading Monsieur Don't Care to her French class, and Mary Louisa Williams, whose course in Un- natural Natural History is making quite a hit . Flora McNeill is conducting a Charm School, for the Youth and Beauty of Cumberland and Harnett Counties. One of her able assistants is Catherine Morris, instructor in the sciences of IT, Katherine Purdie has all of these under her thumb since she is Miss Principal. Doctor Gregg Sutton has established a novel form of Hospital at Poe's Bottom, N. C. He refuses to accept any cases more serious than freckles for he says that troubles just ruin his naturally sweet disposition. He is ably assisted in his humanitarian efforts by several capable nurses, Katie Lou Holland, Bertha Sandlin and Mary Howard being among the number. Once more the scene shifts, and I see a tropical island. It is one of the famous Sandwich Islands. There under a palm tree full of monkeys is seated Raymond Cassidy. He is a full general in the army Qnot Salvationj and is in the islands to quell an uprising of the Sand Vv'itches. Jane Grassie, prize bathing beauty and Sand Witch is a leader of the revolt- the purpose of which is to keep the Sandwich Islands for the Sand Witches. Seated peril' ously on the tipftop branch of a datopalm is Paul1Cameron, the author of Dates With Sand Witches, an Excellent Diet. His dates with them fill several volumes! Coming up the beach is Alexander McGeachy, a missionary to the islands. A Sickly smell assails my nostrils as Pythia ceases speaking and I suddenly realize that someone is bending over me. It is mother, and she says: What did I tell you about going out riding alone on that outlaw horse? He threw you and you've been unconscious all day. With a tolerant smile I answered, Oh, well, he's a nice little horse and I got a great kick out of that ride.
