why. Carl Venard had just returned from the first successful non-stop flight around the world. I was about to say, ttturn on, when I saw Richard Marston hurry up and ask Carl for an interview. As Dicky was an old friend and the star reporter of the American Magazine, Carl willingly gave him one. You can probably read it in that magazine. The next setting was at the sea shore. I wonderingly beheld my old classmate, Sue Snell, in a crimson bathing suit with tLife Guard' on the back. I asked the little spiritft Is she really a life guard? Oh yes, he replied. HYou see she doesnt have to know how to swim. She just tosses out a life saver if anyone is in danger. This work doesn't interfere with the health of her children, for sometimes they play on the seashore and sometimes with whom you know as Helen Medert. Immediately the scene changed and I saw Helen teaching in a pret- ty kindergarden. My friend continued, She hasntt been able to agree with any of her husbands, but the children all love her.

You see he coached the Red Devils, winners of the national basketball championship. The next picture was the most touching I have ever witnessed.

Clintonis name will go down as a true benefit to humanity. In the next scenes I learned that Mildred Oldenburg had put aside any thought of a career and is devoting herself to the hardest job of all, that of being a good wife and mother; that Russell Keeler is chief mechanic of the Ford plant; that Clifford Bushman is a teacher of electrical chemistry at Miami University; that Virginia Grigsby and her two children are touring the world with some friends; that Alma Wal- ker is a highly prized Domestic Science teacher at the University of Cincinnati; and that Charles Cox has won fame in the fashion world as a designer of frocks and gowns, his chief slogan being Back to Naturef 18
