Goody, goody, a show! Please let me run and see where it's to be. Although I have a large family, I still love excitement and my curiosity is roused by new comers, a possession left mefrom childhood, which my own children inherit. Upon investigation I discovered it to be Madam Putavallizsky, a woman so en- dowed that she is famous all over the world because of her ability to disclose the past, tell of the present and predict the future. She had never been known to fail in her pre- dictions. . Sitting before our fire that evening in our suburban home' and reading a letter that my husband brought me from my old class mate, Dierdra Mae Croodson, who has been queen of the footlights for eleven years and is making her fortune by her face, I learned she was retiring to spend the remainder of her life on the Pollard. farm near Owensville. What surprises one gets when separated from old friends. After reading her newsy letter I had a desire to know what the rest of my classmates were doing. My husband suggest- ed I visit Madam Putavallizsky. This I decided to do that very next day, so before retiring, I took my high school annual and fondly turned the leaves that are now so worn and again I read the contents. The next morning I made my way to Madam Putavallizsky's tent. I persuaded the beautiful seer fby crossing her palm with silver, to tell me what she could of my former classmates and how they were being treated by the cold, cold world. I proudly opened my Kickapoo of '26 and as she looked upon each dear face, the brilliant mind brought to my eager ears what I for years had longed to know. Madam's' voice was deep and musical and very pleasing to the ear and she laugh- ed softly to herself as she began, Have you noticed the many air holes in the candy of the Barnett Candy Co.? Chester, the son, is the industrious worker who punches them. Mariam Barnette has startled all Broadway society by resigning from her posi- tion as director of the New York Symphony Orchestra where she has met with brilliant success for the past five years. She is now an exclusive laundress, treating only the finest fabrics, her earnings she gives to a charitable institution. As a laundress she is the great- est traveler on record, as she crosses the Iine and goes from pole to pole. . Clare Boren does odd jobs for anyone. He is considered a handy man about town and has a very pleasing manner with him and can brighten things' up wonderfully for his friends, especially silverware, if he has a good polish. He goes on errands for busy housewives and substitutes for gentlemen at formal social affairs. QM alex:-.-acvvvve lvVVVOD'n'l3I f V V24 it Page Twenty Four 'J
