THE ECHO 13 What’s this? The South Sea Islands! If there isn’t Lois Tilton working industriously over food samples. She’s found a new way to make butter. And here is Gordon Neal on a deserted island in the Pacific. It seems that while making an airplane flight from America to Hawaii, to inspect his pineapple plantation, something went wrong with the plane, and to the rescue sped a newly commissioned patrol boat of the U. S. Coast Guard under the command of a brilliant officer, Windsor Hollis. Here is also a famous test pilot, Paul Mitchell, whose face was in a Chester- gold cigarette ad. He was known as “Suicide” Mitchell because of his utter disregard of danger. And there’s Elbie Hooker in his hydrogen balloon. He’s on his way to the planet Mars. This is now the White House, Washington, D. C. There is Miss Helen Mackie, private secretary to President Frank Moran. She has but a few minutes to talk to us, but in that short time she tells us that Vice-President Russell Chandler got his job with his political pull. There too is the Congresswoman from Massachusetts, Miss Alma Mann. Right here is Glenna Hulbert, who was in the woman’s branch of the Marine Corps but is now back in the United States training more women in Quantico, Virginia. Sunny California is next. There’s Harry Davis, who in June 1943 joined the Naval Air Force. Since then he has been cited for bravery many times and now, in his back yard, can be seen his own private little plane. The dial points to Holbrook. Helen McIntosh is wandering alons South Franklin Street with a group of youngsters following her. She is taking Miss Megley’s place at school and is teaching them how to write poems of the sweet spring weather. Here’s an ultra-modern hospital. The head nurse, Janet Bolles, has not changed in all these years. She tells us that Agnes Schutt and Mary Eaton are also excellent nurses in the same hospital. There is a new brick post office and a new postmaster, none other than Paul Colby, now a very important-looking young man. Elizabeth Card, an old schoolmate, comes in view. She w as graduated from Radcliffe College, and now’ is a very famous chemist in the largest laboratory in the world. Alice Bestoso is there happily married and still living in the old home town.
