 PROPHECY I roll out of bed to start another day. Opening my window, I take a deep breath of the fresh morn- ing air. There is a new odor in the air today, and I presume that the Lambert and Sahlin Perfume Company is starting production on its latest product -- a deodorizer to kill odors caused by deodorizers. From my window I can see Skeeter Johnson’s paper mill where he specializes in cigar bands. Skeeter has a contract with Donna West, the woman cigar manufacturer, to make bands for her LaRopo Cigars. LaRopos are the only cigars containing chlorophyll. I hear a large truck roaring up the grade and look out the front window just in time to see Dick Prairie driving past in one of his trucks. He blows his horn at a redhead and the noise rattles my windows. I take a closer look at the redhead and discover that it’s Mary Simpson, who is just re- turning from the airplane factory where she’s a welder on the night shift. Audrey Sanders is a test pilot at the same factory. Looking in a mirror I find that I need a shave, but I also find that I’m out of razor blades. My problem is quickly solved, however, when I find a tube of Ron Brady’s new formula which you just apply and watch your whiskers disappear. I then eat my morning cereal from a bowl with a lid on it designed by Gene Snapp so that if you eat anything that pops, snaps, or crackles, it won’t fly all over the room. Finishing breakfast, I read that Harvey Johnston and Dave Jarvis have just sold their prize bull at the World’s Fair at a record price. The buyer was Reta Madsen, the owner of several large cattle ranches. Ed Kinstner, the auctioneer, was too exhausted to even give a statement to the press. When asked his opinion of the bull, Melvin Kinney, a well known beef raiser said, “I’ve never seen a beefier bull with prettier brown eyes.” Turning the page I see a picture of Winnie Prairie and Sharon Fieleke getting off of an ocean liner after giving piano concerts in Europe. One of the sailors in the picture looks familiar and I recognize Vernon Parks. He’s leaning over the rail and looks slightly seasick. Putting on my hat, I start walking toward town. Robert Herman gives me a ride as far as his barber shop and I walk the rest of the way. I walk into the bank just as LuAnne Swier, a well known night club singer walks out. I endorse my check and while waiting for my money, I see Richard Kelson, the bank president, showing his new secretary, Carole Johnson, how to balance books. I get my money and head for the ferry boat landing. I pass John Cable’s Feed Store just as Roland Blanchette pulls away with a load of feed for his Hamster farm. 17
