The greatest share of the class have worked diligently and climbed the ladder of success. Glenn Schultz our industrious student, has a million dollar jewelry business in the heart of Bolan. He has a store that equals “Tiffany’s in elegance. His speciality is exquisitely cut blue diamonds. Maxine Greiner’s only ambition was to secure a husband. Despite many flirtations it was not until last year that she finally succeeded. The striving couple are farming near the county home. Looking again into our crystal ball we see, away out in Colorado, Richard Navratil on a tiny twenty acre ranch. His only desire when he was in high school was to hear the rattle of the saddle so we think he must be very happy. Looking more closely, near Richard, we see Orland Walk. Orland often dreamed of finding his fortune in a store, and of all things we find him selling salt in his own store in Salt Lake City.
