illll Q-lrnaulimlr-gg Ccontinuedl Johnny Gott is the greatest actor of 1958. He showed his acting ability in the plays at school. His next picture is The House of Frankenstein. Who would have thought it! I see Jane Fishback at our dear old Alma Mater as the efficient libra- rian. She was always interested in this work. If you pick up the telephone and dial the operator, don't be sur- prised if you hear Jeanette Poe's voice because she is chief-operator of the C dz P Telephone Company in Fauquier County.

Happy sailing, George ! Dorothy Ann Glascock is doing her share to make people more beau- tiful. She now has a beauty shop of her own. Dorothy is kept busy at all times because she has won many friends with her sweet dis- position and her skill in beauty culture. You can't tell a sixty from sixteen when she finishes. James Pickett is very well occupied in Fauquier County where he is painting and decorating homes. As long as James is in the commu- nity, all the Fauquier houses will look clean and well kept.

HH J,'lgfll1'IiP.C Q . . , lcontinuedl The boys at Marshall High School are really learning agriculture since Jack Stephenson became the agricultural instructor. He has a large new department with the most up-to-date equipment. It's pop- ular to be a farmer, and it's a short cut to a life of wealth and ease. I see in my crystal ball that William Miller has become a banker. He followed the footsteps of his brother, John. Billy's ambition is to become president of the bank. Milton Gockrell is another one of our Seniors of '46 who is in the Air Oorps. In 1960 he will make the first flight to the moon. He will be the Columbus of the air. I see that Gloria Holmes won the personality award in 1956 at At- lanta, Georgia. She was chosen winner over 150 other girls. Nice going, Gloria. Last, but not least is my sister prophet, Helen Bell, who is head nurse at the Garfield Hospital. Incidentally, if you become ill, go there for excellent care which you will receive under I-Ielen's super- vision. At last the crystal ball is fading and Father Time is ready to begin his work to promote the fulfillment ofthis prophecy. RUBY MOORE HELEN BELL
