THE TIGER LILY fact that these hostesses are chosen, not only for their efficiency, but also for their beauty! As I reach Long1 Beach, California, 1 spy a slim figure doing settingup exercises on the golden sands along the Pacific Ocean. As she turns to dash into the waves,,1 realize to my astonishment that it is Goldie, a Phys. Ed., teacher. Now, I turn my attention eastward, and as I fly over the Grand Canyon I perceive a group of engineers plotting out the location for a suspension bridge across the canyon. On closer inspection I see Superintendent Duhart in earnest conversation with Engineer Klein concerning a blue print. Leaving these enterprising young engineers, 1 invade the nearest town of El Paso, where Jess Hurd with the aid of Donny Michelitsch is planning to overthrow the Mexican government. It is rumored that Jess hopes to set up student government in all Mexico schools, while Donny charms the senoritas with his guitar. Now New Orleans looms into sight and I notice Uncle Henry’s Showboat, brightly lighted and its decks thronged with people, pulling out from the wharf. The crowd is waiting for the appearance of two new radio stars, Eola Meeker and Alberta Ostrander. A quick dash across the Gulf of Mexico and I land in Miami, Florida, where Norris Burleson is considered the most eligible young bachelor of the season. Always immaculate and well-groomed, he is in constant demand. Phyllis Holcomb, who still has a nose for news, has been sent by the Associated Press to Panama to obtain the inside story of the murder of a popular young playwright. In Richmond, Virginia, I see Irma Crawford, who is employed as governess to the children of Senator Cross. Her quiet manners and sweet disposition make her an ideal influence for the children. Nearing the end of my journey, I turn my course toward Washington. However, I linger for a moment to enjoy the breath-taking sight of the Midshipmen at Annapolis on parade. Among the admiring spectators I notice Lieutenant Hoffower, who is on shore leave from the S. S. S. Saratoga, wffiere he is an outstanding pilot. Now for Washington, where a campaign is being held for Lyman for President. Bob’s advancement in the political world is largely due to his executive ability and to the loyal support of his many friends. In the national capitol the petite and vivacious Jane Colcord is causing quite a stir in the House of Representatives because of her proclamation of women’s rights. Leaving the capitol, I make my way into the Quaker City, where a brilliant newr play insuring the success of a talented playwright, Loletta Nelson, has been running at the Garrick Theatre. Believing my journey to be at an end, 1 am much surprised to discover that the launching of the new battleship, S. S. S. Savannah, is in progress. As I scan the decks, I notice Lieutenant Doloway on the bridge, and nearby Frances Cutting, a nurse, bound for the naval base in Hawaii. Thus my journey ends! As the sun sets, the ship glides down the slip-ways into the calm waters of the harbor and disappears from view beyond the distant horizon.

THE TIGER LILY The Magic Carpet I am a flying carpet, designed for the purpose of locating the scattered members of the class of thirty-five. As I fly over America, the bright lights of New York City attract my attention and I settle down on the roof of the renowned Johnson and Johnson Costume Shoppe, an exclusive store that handles only the latest Parisian models. To my astonishment I find that this select establishment is owned and operated by Clark and Emory Johnson. After recovering from my surprise, I decide to take in the latest play hit of the season, “Blue Moon”, and find Betty Jervis ably taking the leading role. My attention is next attracted to a formation of Army planes, which I decide to follow to their destination. They land on the well-kept “terra firma” of West Point, where the flight commander eases himself from his plane to report to the C. O. My word 1 It is De McDowell! However, I can not tarry here as 1 must locate others of the class of ’35. Boston comes in sight and I see Bernice Causer entering a beauty shop managed by Stubby Acker. No wonder these Bostonians look smart. From Boston I strike out across the country until peculiar noises reach me. I look down on the vast tents of the Barnum, Bailey Circus and see Bill Painter, a barker at a side show. And as I am about to leave, I see Sandy Tauscher enter the mid-way, where I overhear him discussing his Nation-Wide Chain Stores with Rusty Myers, a traveling salesman. Next, Chicago comes into view, and I see a police cruiser, driven by Barney Simar, winding its way thru the traffic in pursuit of Harland Strait, a notorious racketeer. I continue across the continent until I spot Minneapol's, where the palatial residence of the steel magnate, Menfred Tenglund, is situated. At Denver I hear the voice of Vic Wagner announcing from Station B. A. A., the result of the heavyweight championship bout between Max Roys and Charley Ireland at Madison Square Gardens, New York City. It was a draw. Leaving Denver, I visited a dude ranch, where Ernie Edgreen is patiently trying to convert Marie to the Western habit of riding. While there I learn that Hoddy has made his fortune in a steam ship line running between Seattle and Alaska. Ernie also informs me that Neil Mangold has forsaken the United States to join the Northwest Mounted Police in Canada. Now as I head South, I reach Salt Lake City, where I learn that Inky Boudon has embraced the Mormon faith, which entitles him to more than one wife. Whoopee ! As I travel in the West I notice that Mary (Smith)-Collins is on her way to Reno for the third time. Leaving the Rocky Mountains, I journey to the West coast and view that most fascinating city—Hollywood ! Among the most popular of the stars I discover Mary Moore and Pearl Lumley, the successors of Polly Moran and Marie Dressier. On my way to Long Beach, California, I get a glimpse through a window of Barney (Mary Barnett) acting as hostess on a passenger plane, where she practices her monkey-shines in the air. It is a well known
