Look I Who got out of the car that has just stopped? Why, it is Ruthmarie. Goodness,what has happened, did anyone get hurt? Everything is under control now, so calm down. Gee, it sure has been a long time since we have seen each other. Remember, when in school, how we would argue over our boyfriends? That was in the olden days. But now you are a famous actress. Say, have you seen Donna Lou lately? Yes, I attended one of her concerts the other night. She is a very successful singer now. Yes, dumb Gert---who used to get the blame for everything.

But now he is an ace aviator for Trans Atlantic Air Lines. Imagine seeing Io Anne in her uniform. She was on that plane with Bill, doing her duty as an airline stewardess. She too has attained her favorite ambition in life. Heavens, there is Loren getting out of that ambu - K lance. He never did marry, did he? 'No, and now he is a very pro- minent farmerf' Helen, what have you been doing these past years ? I took nu.rse's training, and now I am a registered nurse. I never will forget the first day I entered the hospital in my uniform. Now look at me going as a patient. See, we are at the hospital now. Look, isn't that Io Anne and Bill getting out of that taxi? It certainly is, and who would have ever thought that we would meet at a hospital. But here we are, and it sure has been wonderful seeing each other again. Strange, isn't it, to once again have heard from the class of '47, Helen, Io Anne, Bill, Ruthmarie, Donna Lou, and Loren. if
