Broadway New York fmds Alyce speeding in a taxi Wonder where she s gomg Ah I see She ts returnmg from the harbor where she has just s en Betty off to Europe Now she 1S going to her Interior decorating shop one of the most famous in New York When she flmshes her day s work she w1ll join her husband who is a stock broker then- home She too has attamed her goal My what lovely V 8 s we have m 1966 but Helen s still r1dmg in the same old one I ee her In Texas ridmg the range Not a horse she likes V 8 s Brings back memories, doesn t It Helen? And somewhere on the ranch is the master of the ranch but not of Helen He s hen peckedll Turning to me she sa1d, Aren t they all? ' Well Helen s settled down but has Bonna? I m not sure but I don't think so The spirits are very confused They say that they don't know if she is living with her colonel husband in Washington D or If she, like Helen is living on a ranch. Perhaps the ranch though so as to be closer to Helen I see a tall lanky ran with a pipe sitting in an easy chair listening to the radio It s Vernon better known as G G Jacobson I interrupted her by saying that I always thought Vernon would be a farmer She became very disgusted with my ignorance and said that he was a farmer I sa1d no more but I didn t understand Farmers just don' t sit in easy chairs with pipes listemng to the radio Then she explained He IS now pressing a button and as he looks out th window mto the orn field and on it s rnarvelouslll The tractor is plowing corn Oh for the l1.fe of a farmer! RenolIlIOh cursed townIlOne of your pupils in Reno!! I thought you were a re spectable teacherl Oh but forgwe me I misgudged Yes it IS Reno but do not fear Arlean Hove li ve there wlth her husband who is a judge m the divorce courts A person can L grant h1mselj a divorce can he? I see another person r1d1ng the range orene Knutsonll I d1dn't thmk she d ever l1ve on a ranch Oh the sp1r1ts fool me She rides the range yes but It is the kltchen range She has four no five little ones Cute too She s making griddle cakes No wonder they l1ve m Georgia She st1ll looks cute 1n rolled up slacks and pigtalls too I see the art gallery ln New York with some beaut1ful pamttngs Are my eyes de ce1v1ng me? By the samts of witchcraft they were paint d by Harr1et Thomsen!! World farnousll But too I see Terry in a little kitchen with Bob Her painting must be just a sldelme The steam IS growing f lter but I see some signs yet I see Carroll Sunde runnmg to greet h1s mother who has not seen him s1nce he graduated from college He has been in South America You ask what he has been doing there? The steam vanishes and will not tell me by the signs of the splr1t The spirits wlll not tell With that I thanked her and left the cave Then I stumbled Same old l 5 one agam asked me what I was thinking of so that I fell I answered I wonder what Buddy was doing in South America? . 7 1 7 - ' ' o , .
