■Gllmpee Into 62 This afternoon after I laid Junior down and eet back In the arm chair, I picked up the Mayvllle Monitor which la now under the full direction, of James Cranlck and his wife. That was when I first real- ized that it haB been ten years eence we as members of the class of 1952 roamed the halls of Mayvllle High. When running though the paper I never raise reading the Fostoria news. OhJ look, it eaye that Mr. and Mrs. Duane Lindsay and family of Ban Franecieco Calf, are here visiting their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ward Lindsay and Mr. and Mrs. Ben Hescott. Duane Is now playing for a large symphony Orchestra In Calf, and they are bring up their twin boys to be wonderful musicians too. Down here I see that Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Brunett and family have Just returned to their home In Detroit after spending the weekend with Betty 0 family, Mr. and Mrs. Wheaton. I understand Betty and Eugene were married as soon as he was released from the service. As I continued reading I was interrupted by the telephone and, to my supprlse it was Marlyn Seddon. 9he said she was home for the weekend which was a pleaeent releif from the noisy classroom of High School pupils. The next day we went shopping in 8llverwood and left the chlld- ern at The Titus 2 hour Nursury . Violet has been in that business for quite some time. When we walked into the largest Department Store In this thriving city, which is owned by Francis Wood, who should wait on us but Anna Chorba or Yens as we knew her. In our conversation she said that Carol Cursll had worked here until she got married. We left the Wood Department Store and croesed the street but apperantly in the wrong place because Duane Dost the Policeman there in Silverwood stopeed us. When he saw whom we were he was very sur prleed to think we would cross the street in the wrong place after we learn to obey the rules In our School Dayn. But after all, that was 10 years ago. I wap taking with Mrs. Fox the other day. She Is now the wife of the greatest sea captain the world has v r known. As Sharron and I were discussing our old clase mates we came to the rell?atlon that quite a few of them went Into the service shortly after graduation. You remember Luman Berry? How could any one forget a guy that every- one liked and got along with so well. He is making a career of the navy and his wife is with him. Do you remember who she was? JoAnn Ewing also Joined the service only that wae nt until she finished four years of collage and two years of teaching Home Ec. In the lower part of our state. They say the reason she did nt continue teaching was that she met a nice looking General and they were married. As you can see she dld nt really Join the service for herself. Sharron said that Marie TerBueh liked the array life too but not as well as the others because she and Elmer moved back to Michigan where ♦‘hey are running the Crabtree bakery. Marie Is kept pretty busy at home with the childern. The other day we went to the dentist in Vasser. Yes, George Mltchel le a very good dentist and it ls nt at all supprlslng that he settled in Vaeser is It? On the way back we stopped in Janlata at the Bretsloff Barber Shop where my husband got hie hair cut. Bill le a busy man now being the Mayor of that large town and taking care of hie shop too. After retruning home from Vaeser and Juniata we dlclded to spend the evening at home watching television.

Before Dot left we were talking about her Job as Airline-Hostess. She said she saw Beverly Harris on the plane, flying from her home In Maine here to visit her folkB.
