I Class Prophecy That is the second truck I saw with that name, I said to Ray as we were coming home from Philadelphia, where I had gone with him to see how the things Ray raises in his green- houses sold at market. Hartz and VVCZIVCY, Long Distance Hauling, who is that, Ray? That's Paul Hartz and Victor YVeaver., Victor supervises the bookkeeping, while Paul sees to the trucks. Martha Kurtz and Irene Stoltzfus are the 'office force.' Before he went into the greenhouse business himself, Harry Lefever was one o-f his best drivers, answered Ray. Do you remember the time in English Class when Paul Hartz applied for a job as truck driver? You know we all had to apply for some job to give us experience for doing it in earnest later. He certainly illustrated the wrong way very aptly. Why, he didn't even have his driver's license with him! I wonder just what the other members of our class are doing. That accounts for several, but what about the rest? I asked. y lNhy don't we try to see or find some definite inlformation about the l'CSt tomorrow? Do you have time, Ray? I'l1 take time for that, he replied. I Fine, I'll be around early then, and with this in mind I went home to wait for to- morrow, more eagerly than usual. Early the next morning, I called for Ray. WVe didn't have too far to go to talk to some of our old classmates. Lawrence King, Galen Buekwalter, and Donald Mast were all living on adjoining farms. Lawrence was raising potatoes, which Hartz and Weaver were hauling to Philadelphia for him every winter. Galen had a large dairy, and was supplying milk to all neighboring towns. Donald raised wheat and also many peas. He had built a large pea huller and was supplying many of the peas for the near-by cannery. I'Vhen they found out what we were going to do, they all would have liked to go along but Donald was the only one who felt he could spare the time. His peas were already -harvest- ed. As we drove along Donald told us that Hartz and Weaver also hauled most of O-liver Mast's large crop of potatoes, and, what may have been more surprising, Clarence Rutt's sprayers were spraying both Oliver's and Lawrence's potatoes. VVe came to a large implement shop, and when we saw David Harnish's name, we stopped right away. David was selling farm machinery and Farmall tractors for the 'International Harvester Company. Vllhen we told him of our interest in locating old classmates he led the way into the office, where Norma Metzler was bookkeeper and Rrut-h Ranck the stenographer. While we were talking, in walked Eugene Peifer. After some necessary explaining was over, it turned out that Eugene was a salesman for Glenn Rutt, who owned the Chevrolet and Oldsmobile garage in New Holland. Eugene, we found, had come to talk to Norman Shirk, who was shop foreman in Harnish's shop. He had just bought a 1960 new Chevie, and Eugene wanted to make sure Norman was satisfied. Eugene told us that Erma Sensenig and Arlene Hollinger had worked for Glenn, but were now keeping house in their own homes. Ruth told us some of our classmates were too far away to see. Leota Brunk was living in California, a very good state, W-hile Jeanette I-Iostetter and Mabel Horst were nurses at our Mennonite Hospital at La Junta, Colorado. However, it seems that Gladys Swartz didn't Want to go that far from home, for she, with Carolyn Swartzentruber, was a nurse at Lancaster Gen- eral Hospital. .Iohn Fisher was a prominent heart specialist in Lancaster also. l'Ve coruldn't stay here longg so after exchanging information, we set out again. Soon, in the distance we saw many large greenhouses. VVe stopped at a near-by store, where books and mottoes and other things which make up a well-equipped gift shop were sold. Here we found Martha Denlinger to be the owner and Alma Stoltzfus and Nyla Ebersole the clerks. We talk- Seventy-four
