Cook and Robert Huitt accepting positions in the HU. S. Naval Dept. from the honorable Forrest Lawing, who is in charge of the designing and modeling department of the Navy. I looked deep into the crystal and saw a cloud of large red bubbles. Bobby Ervin, the great chemist of Duke University, was giving a man-made produc- tion of the Aurora Borealis. Mr. Ervin had a copy of the world's most famous picture of the Aurora Borealis, taken by Watson Gabriel for the National Geo- graphic magazine. which he put on exhibit with his production for comparison. A little to one side, I saw two familiar faces. They were Virginia I-Iuitt and Katheryn Sherrill, who were discussing sending their new modern history book to Mr. Brady Holland for publication. As I looked I saw a little boy go into the A. and P. store in Startown. He went straight up to Walter Mauney, the manager, to buy a stick of candy with a penny, which Mr. Ralph Setzer, a prosperous farmer of that section had given him. This store had just been completed carrying out the orders of Mr. Craig Hilton, business manager of the A. and P. stores. I switched the crystal around again and saw Commander Carl Huffman of Port Bragg conversing with the first lieutenant, Roy Yount. They were com- paring the bids of Robert Keever, W. L. Lefevers, George Martin, and Howard Whisnant, who were representatives of their respective construction companies. I looked to the south of the crystal and saw Mr. Jimmie Isenhower, the great cotton wizard of Conover, instructing his cotton buyers, Mr. Glenn Young. Allen Lee Setzer and Oscar Simmons to buy 100,000 shares of stock each in the cotton market. This made the price of cotton boom skyward and I saw Robert McCreight selling his shares and retiring. As I gazed to the southeast I observed a large spacious restaurant. I peered in the window and saw Miss Mary Alice Lingerfelt, owner and manager of the concern, checking the money in the cash register. Miss Mary Alice Lawing. her hostess. was talking to Philip Moose about his world famous picture, the Lone Moose . Miss Dorothy Payne and Miss Marjanelle Kenimer, waitresses, were taking it ea-sy, by sitting in the back of the room. I shook my head to clear my vision, but to no avail. I saw Josie Little and Frances Setzer among a group of vacationists swimming in the surf at Miami Beach. As Miami Beach faded away, I saw Wilma Smith and Freida Simmons be- fore a newspaper office. planning some bills and posters to have printed for Miss Edith Young's campaign for mayor in the coming election. The crystal grew cloudy and then cleared in time for me to see Make War- lick board the transport plane from Newton to Miami Beach. Miss Warlick was met by Mr. Brady Mullinax, dancing supervisor of the Beach, who pre- sented her with a contract to teach a dancing school once a week in Miami. Miss Warlick plans to fly back and forth each week for her school. My head began buzzing slightly, so I looked again while I could, and saw Harold McGee, manager of the Home Stores, and Wade Sigmon, pharmacist for the City Pharmacy, discussing their old school days in Newton Hi. The buzzing in my head increased and then disappeared. I opened one eye, and to my surprise saw lying in my lap, the Charming magazine open at the picture of Amos and Andy and Prince Ali Bendo.
