To think that anything so exciting could happen in our quiet little town. But my! I sup- pose you are wondering what I am speaking of, it never entered my mind that you haven't heard of this. Well hold to your seat and open your ears and I'll tell you. Dr. Holmes has invented a machine that will carry a person 10 years into the future! He has worked diligently for five years on it and has at long last completed it. The main question is who will fly the Future Ray Machine? Well, Doc soon settled this. He decided to place the name of every member of the graduating class of '42 into a hat and select one. I was the lucky one. Having taken all instructions seriously I took off one sunny day in late July. I headed my little ship for New York as I had always heard this was the city of fun and excite- ment and that was exactly what I was looking for.

I stopped to give him some money when he said, nwhy you are Jeanne Martinn. I said yes and found out that he was Ed New. He told me that he just cou1dn't get up the energy to become anything important so he took for his vocation begging. He said he liked to sit here and pity those poor old men going to work. I idled on further and, determined to do as much window shopping as I wanted to, I began to gaze in the beautiful store windows. I started to take the address of a lovely store when this caught my eye, nmadame A La Hines, Magazine de Parisn. I thought of Mutt the girl back home because I knew she had dreams of owning a lovely decided to go on in and if it had dress shop. I not have been for that little turned up nose I would never have rec- ognized her. She had on pearls three feet long a- round her neck, and she had on a beautiful black, satin dress. Yes this was Mutt. I asked her how she ever got this far away from home. She told me a long pitful story and I'l1 try to tell you part of it.
