LAVOISIER, WHO IS THE GREAT GRANDSON OF ANTOINE LAURGENT LAVOISIER, WHO NAMED OXYGEN. WHILE JANE'I'I'E IS 'I'HERE SHE WILL AISO STUDY AT COLLEGE MAZARIN IN FRANCE. FROM THERE, SHE WILL GO TO GERMANY TO STUDY AT THE UNIVERSITIE OF STRASBOURG, GOTINGEN, MUNICH, AND BERLIN. WE HOPE THAT SHE WILL COME BACK TO THE UNITED STATE ANDAELP IN THE CURE OF CANCER. JANETTE HAS BEEN TAKING COURSES IN THE STUDY OF C ER, AND SHE THAT MAYBE BY WORKING WITH THEE FOREIGN DOCOTRS, SHE MILL FIND A CURE'THAT WILL CURE CANCER IN ANY STAGE. THERE ON THE RIGHT BESIDE JANETTE IS BERTHA FINKS. BERTHA IS THE OWNER OF THE CHAIN BEAUTY SHOPPE IN UNITED STATE. 'I'HE NAME OF 'I'HE BEAUTY SHOPPE IS BOITA FOINKS BEAUTY SALON. IN HER MAIN SHOPPE WHERE SHE WORKS HERSELF SHE HAS EMPLOYED 'I'HE FAMOUS HAIR DRESER, PIERRE LAMOUR MARQUE'1'l'E DARCEL, FROM FRANCE TO WORK ESPECIALLY IN HER SHOPPE. 'I'HE MAIN SHOPPE IS LOCATE ON CAPISTRANO, WHICH IS VERY ARTISTICALLY LOCATED. BERTHA IS MARRIED AND LIVE IN BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA WITH HER HUSBAND AND CHILDREN. HER HUSBAND IS MAX GRAVES, THE FAMOUS OIL WELL TYCOON, ON THE NEXT PAGE IS A PICTURE OF LARRY SPANGLER.. LARRY IS ACCOMPANYING ROGER IN HIS ROCKET SHIP TO THE PLANET OF PLANINONIUM. HE WILL ACT AS HIS SPACE CADET PIIOT ENGINEER. LARRY HAS AISO PILOTE SUCH FAMOUS PEOPLE AS THE PREIDENT BERNARD MASON, JULIUS LAROSA, DEI ARNE2 IV, GARY CROSBY, AND GIGI PEREAU. LARRY HAS MADE A NONE STOP FLIGHT TO THE MOON AND MANY OTHER PLANETS. BEFORE LARRY BECAME A SPECIALIZE PILOT, HE WAS A BARBER IN BOSTON, MASS. HE WAS PUT OUT OF BUSINES WHEN HE WAS CHARGED WI'1'H CUTTING A PERSON ON PURPOSE WHEN HE WAS GIVING HIM A SHAVE. AFTER THAT HE DECIDE TO BECOME.A PIIDT. AND THERE IS BERNADINE ON THE NEXT PAGE. ' ADINE IS NOW SELLING FIDWERS IN HER FLORIST SHOPPE IN BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. I WHEN BERNADINE USED TO JUST LOVE FLOWERS. WHEN SHE WAS IN HIGH SCHOOL SHE ALWAYS WORE FLOWERS. BERNA- DINE IS JUST BACK FROM THE HAWAIIAN ISLANDS. WHILE SHE WAS THERE SHE GAYHERED DIFFERENT SPECIE OF HAWAIIAN FLOWERS 'TO ADD TO THE COLLECTION SHE HAS IN HER FLORIST SHOP. WHEN SHE WAS IN HAWAII BERNADINE MET A MAN ABOUT HER AGE THAT SHE LIKE AND I THINK THEY WILL BE GETTING MARRIED IN THE NEAR FUTURE. BEAUSE HE TOO IS A FLORIST HE WANTS TO COME TO THE UNITED STATE TO SEE HER COLLETION AND FLORIST SHOP, HE SAYS, BUT I THINK IT'S AN EXCUSE TO COME TO THE UNITE STATE T0 BE WITH BERNADINE. THERE ON THE NEXT PAGE IF A PICTURE OF FRANKLIN YARNELL. FRANK IS NOW A GREAT COON HUNTER. HE IS TRAVELING ALL OVER THE WORLD LOOKING FOR DIFFERNT KINDS OF COONS TO ADD TO HIS COLLECTION. FRANKLIN STARTED HIS HUNTING OF COONS AROUND HIS HOME TOWN OF MCCLURE, OHIO. HE IS NOW 'I'HE OWNER OF YARNELL'S COON DOG KENNEIS. THIS IS IDCAT IN THE CITY OF DOG TOWN, VIRGINIA. FRANK HAS A SPECIAL DOG SHOW AND EJCHIBITION IN MIAMI FLORIDA. HE IS AISO THE MANAGER OF THE PURE BRE DOG RACES IN TAMPA, FLORIDA. HE HAS BEEN WINNING SOME VERY NICE TROP- HIE FROM HIS PRIZE RUNNING DOGS. BEFORE FRANKLIN WENT INTO THE DOG BUSINES HE WAS A PROFESIONAL BOXING CHAMPION. WHILE FIGHTING '1'HE EX-CHAMPION JOE IDUIS JR. HE HIT JOE IN THE LAST ROUND AND BROKE HIS HAND, BUT WITH THIS JAB JOE FELL TO THE FLOOR AND COULDN'T GET UP UNTIL IT WAS TO LATE. FRANK AT LEAST HAD THE CHAM- PION FOR A WHILE. AFTER HE BROKE HIS HAND HE GAVE UP BOXING BECAUSE HE COULD NOT DEFEND HIS TITLE. THE NEXT PICTURE I SEE IS 'I'HAT OF THE HONORABLE PREIDENT BERNARD MASON. HE BECAME THE PREIDENT OF THE UNITE STATE JUST ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO. BERNARD IS NOW ABOUT FORTY YEARS OF AGE. THEY SAY LIFE BEGINS AT FORTY AND IT CERTAINLY IS FOR BERNARD BEAUSE HE IS EARNING ABOUT 100,000 A YEAR AND IS AISO WINNING THE INFLUENCE OF EVERYBODY AS HE HAS JUST CALLED OFF THE WAR IN KOREA ANDSENT MESAGE THAT ALL SOLDIERS BE RETURNED HOME. THIS HAS MADE BERNARD 'I'HE MAN OF 'I'HE HOUR. NOW THAT THE WAR IS OVER HE SAYS THAT THE GOVERNMENT WILL NOT NEED SO MUCH MONEY AND THAT THEY WILL NOT REDECORATE THE WHITE HOUSE ANY MORE, THE TAXES WILL BE CUT TREIENDIOUSLY. BERNARD IS MARRIED AND HAS A FAMILY OF TWO BOYS AND TWO GIRIS. HIS WIFE IS THE FORMER NORMA,MAGELICUIE OF BOWLING GREEN, OHIO. BERNARD CERTAINLY HAS HAD SUCCESS. v A' AT THE TOP OF THE PAGE IS A POSE OF ABOUT FOUR GIRIS. TWO OF THESE GIRLS INCLUDE NORA JUNGE AND LaVONNE BURLING. I SAW IN 'I'HE PAPER THAT THEY ARE WORK- ING AS MODELS FOR EQUISITE SHOPPE IN NEW YORK CITY. FROM THE PAPER THEY HAVE SHOP IN THE UNITED STATE WANTS THEM AS MODEIS FOR BEEN VERY BUSY AS EVERY DRES . IGHT NOW THEY ARE WORKING FOR THE FAMOUS SHOPPE FOR WOMENS CLOTHIE THEIR STORE R IR CLASSMATE THEY THOUGHT THAT JOANNE'S FIFTH AVENUE. BEINGS THAT JOANNE WAS THE THEY SHOULD NOT REFUSE HER. FROM JOANNE'S THEY WILL TAIE A VACATION FROM ALL THE WORK THAT THEY HAVE BEEN DOING LATELY. IT SAID IN THE PAPER AISO THAT THEY WILL SPEND A MONTH AT MIAMI BEACH. THIS IS JUST TO RET AND TAKE IN A LITTLE OF THE SCENERY. WELL, ITS GETTING LATE NOW SO I'LL PUT MY SCRAP BOOK AWAY AND SUART PU'I'I'ING MY CHILDREN TO BED. THE CLASSMATE OF THE CLASS OF 1953 CERTAINLY HAVE CHANGE IN THE LAST TWHQ- TYYEARSAS TOTHETIMEWHENTHEYHADJUSTGRADUATEDFROMGOOD OLEM. H. S. THE END
