..-...-.-.-..-.--.l,....il wrann . , 5 I-'i-lb? in the paper yesterday that he was a candidate for the presidency on the Repub- lican ticket. Edna:-Yes, talking of holding some office, we can well be proud of another member of our High School, Doris Livesay. Here's a note from the Chicago Trib- une- Illinois Woman selected as attorney for the 'Vacuum Case.' I see that she's been Attorney-General of Illinois, and you must have heard that the Livesay Law School has a nation-wide reputation. Josephine:-Hazel, Kenneth Wohlford has invented a way of making sugar, so good-bye beet and cane. He now finds himself a millionaire. I 'guess he learned his business wisdom from a certain banker of Orangeville. Anyway, he saves his money and can rest easy for the rest of his life. Edna:-Did you see Esther Folgate while on your travels? Josephine:-Oh, yes. I saw her in Paris. She said Latin wasn't enough for her, so now she's mastered Greek and French. That is only her side line however, for she's employed as a designer in a fashion shop. And such gowns! The Queens and Princesses of Europe have become her permanent patrons. Edna:-I saw Laura Dietmeier, now Laura Moore, out near .Cheyenne, Wyo- ming. They live on a ranch and Laura actually rides those bucking bronchos as if she'd been accustomed to them all her life. Out there she is called Fatty. By the way, what ever became of our studious boy, Raymond Dean? Josephine:-I saw Raymond Dean in Cincinnati. As I passed through, my attention was directed by a sign which read. Don't miss the great iight tonight. Dean was a Jack Dempsey, Junior. He challenges The National Champion heavy- weight. Seats 535. I went and there was Raymond, our class poet of Orange- ville High. How did he ever become a boxer? I don't know, but he won, and of all the cheering! I never heard anything comparable to it. Edna:--I just ran across this note. While stopping in Kansas City, I went to a popular grocery store. Whom do you suppose were the proprietors? Why, Eugene Herdman and Clarence Zeigler! They specialize in squirtless grapefruit and love- tablets. You'd be surprised at the number of people who buy them. While I was there Echert Ebel came in and bought two boxes of them. By the way Eckert is manlager of the Morning Glory Follies. Yes, modest little Eckert just loves his wor . Hazel :-There's only one more noisy boy I'd like to know about. Josephine:-Oh, Allen Auman? He's manager of the Wild Jazzadiers Cir- cus. I took in one of his shows and there he was blacked up, clad in grass cos- tume dancing away and playing the slide trombone for dear life. Hazel:-Well, if that doesn't sound just like him. But come-you must see my La Espana Pequena. ' gs 4 ' l 19,

P0 1 .2 ' C- rann H of PROPHECY By Josephine Barnds and Edna Reeser Time-intervening 1935-1940. Place- La Espana Peuena, Montebello, aClifornia. 1Enter Josephine and Ednaj. Josephine:-I always had a desire to see this spot in California, since Hazel used to delight us in talking about its beauties. fEnter tall brunette with smile of hospitalityl. Josephine:-Well, if it isn't Hazel herself. V Edna and Josephine ftogetherbz-Hazel! Hazel:-Senoritas! Can it be Josephine and Edna? Come over to my private sun pvarlor and we'll talk over old times. How did you come to stray into my tea- room. Edna:-I met Josephine in Paris and since then we have been traveling to- gether. We just landed in San Francisco last week. Finding we had a few hours in Montebello, we were attracted to your quaint tearoom. First tell us how you ar- ranged this lovely haunt. Hazel:-Don't you see this combines my love for Spanish, and Montebello? Besides it makes it possible for me to keep in touch with Illinois people? I amuse myself with occasional program in dancing and song. But I can't wait to hear what you must have to tell me of the old class of '26, Josephine:-I do happen to have a few notes that I've picked up about some of our old classmates. Guess whom we saw taking the leading role in The Sultan Has Power last night in Los Angeles? No one else but our class President, Roy Hartman. Oh, he's wonderful! They are just as crazy about it as they are about The Thief of Bagdad. Hazel:-What has become of Mary Miller? - Edna :-You know Mary prepared to be a Home Economics teacher, but she is now illustrating the bliss of love in a cottage. I stopped with her awhile and found that she is a splendid little housewife. Josephine:-fReading from notebookj. Yes, I heard that with the growth of efficiency in shooting men to Mars, Verne Guldin had himself shot up and has be- gome an expert speed cop up there, as the minimum speed is seventy-five miles per our. Edna:-Here, I have my diary with me. September 23rd, 1935. How people will change! Evelyn Howe, because she was jilted in a love affair, has given up the thoughts of men and is now Dean of Women in the Illinois State College. Hazel:-What ever happened to Blanche Lenker? Josephine:-Oh, I saw her while on my New Orleans trip. Here's a reference that I jotted down. dated June 10, 1934. Blanche has made a fortune in the South by inventing a hair straightener and at the same time sells bleaching powders. You can imagine that the larkies buy it like mad, Edna:--Don't let me forget to tell you both that I saw Paul Farley, World's Champion Typing Demonstrator. You will remember that he always held the championship back in old O. C. H. S. He has also become a millionaire through selling, by stealth, a device which will induce Latin to seep into the heads of sad and unhappy Latin victims without any effort on their part. Josephine:-By the way, while I was in Italy last winter visiting the Piazzo del Denomo, whom do you suppose I saw but Roy Bear? I soon learned from him that he an,d his crew of workmen had the contract to straighten the Leaning Tower of Pisa.' Hazel:-Where is Harry Zweifel, the joker of our class? Edna:-Oh that reminds me that I clipped a review of one of Harry's late books, The Boy That I Was. It is fine. Three editions have already been sold and the fourth is on the press. His History of the Development of the United States has been made a textbook in the high schools of seventeen states. Josephine:-Yes, you would never have dreamed it, but all of the Senior class of '26 seems to have attained some prominence. Listen to this: Orville Trester has been governor of Texas two terms and is now the Secretary of Commerce. I saw s 96.
