Norma June Floyd was flitting back and forth between the sets, fran- tically trying to make sure that the tiniest curl was in place. Her assistants followed her faithfully to do the actual work, of course. The stars who can afford the Floyd coiffures are indeed lucky. A young man interrupted us at the bank to say that Miss Ruyle would like to see about the $20,000 loan on the addition to her animal hospital. Mr. Crum hurriedly excused himself to take care of his important client, stating that everyone in this section of the state knows Miss Ruyle’s reputation as a Veterinarian. By this time “Pinky was sound asleep, and while I was wondering what to do about him, I turned on the radio to hear my favorite sports announcer, Gail Staake. Gail gained international fame as a professional sports exhibitionist during World War III, and now everyone listens to “Staake’s Forecast of Sports. My problem of what to do was solved by Shirley's calling to ask Pinky to come to the store immediately. A letter had just arrived asking for a donation to Dr. Leland McAllister’s clinic. Yes, Avalee had had such a great influence on him that now he was a famous tibia surgeon, and his clinic at Pisgah was profitable enough to more than care for their cosy vine-covered cottage. I had seen the clinic but didn’t connect the famous Dr. McAllister with it. It was getting late by now, and tomorrow would be another school day for me, so I bought a few groceries, thanked my host, and said goodbye.
