19 CRYSTAL GAZING As I look Into my crystal ball this June evening, this In brief i8 what I see. It .Is the year 1960. As my eyes become accustomed to the changing scenes I am conscious of a nostalgic feeling. Before my eyes pass many whom I knew so well back In R.H.S. As I look more closely I realize that my friends and former classmates are attending the Gouverneur-St. Lawrence County Fair. It is in full swing. Strolling down the midway there is Gloria Boclair with her hus- band and another couple. Gloria, now Mrs. Kermit Farr, is talking animatedly of the novel. So True. L'iy Love, which she has Just had accepted for publication. Who is the other coupleT That dark haired girl with the viva- cious smile is familiar. Why, of course, that i3 Mary Jane Fuller.— I mean Mrs. Paul Reed. The Reeds have a thriving business in gro- ceries, but this day the temptation was too great and they had left it to a young man while they have the time of their life at the fair. Farther along the Midway they pause to talk with Eloise Tlbbits, who is directing a large group of children from her modern day nur- sery with the same sang frold she formerly displayed in activities at school. Look at that trio approaching the group of Richvilliansi Therefes Audrey Wood. You would never guess from her calm air that she has Just completed a mad rush in order to Join her waiting friends, Dorothy Rowland and Ethel Newcombe. Audrey had an emergency call to duty in her capacity of XRay technician at the Edward John Noble Hospital, Even if she had.failed to keep her appointment, her friends would have understood for they too have found their careers unfolding in the same institution. Dorothy is in charge of the floor for surgical cases while Ethel is the nurse in charge of the office activities. As the threesome approaches the others Dorothy seems to be enter- taining the others with some roguish bit of humor which sends them Into laughter. They pause in amazement before a booth where they see their old Pal Leo Benware. He is now the center of attraction to a staring crowd. The girls soon learn that this tanned and muscular Leo is a guide in the North Woods. Since he has not been out to civilization Ior five years, what he has to say is fascinating to those about him. At last all but Leo wend their way to the grandstand. They are nardly seated there when who should appear but Stanley Turner as the nin speaker of the afternoon. Stanley is now a member of the State unte and is hoping to talk his way to Washington. bj. Later the game begins. What a thrill to see Roscoe Stowell home to win the game for his team. Joanne -Gemklln is soon spotted, wearing a knockout of a frock. ls out: of the ba6 Joanne is a model for Hattie Carnegie nr d ah a though her specialty is beachwear, she evidently patronizes the all her duds.
