'MN 'M -W-MwMM -HMM-A-WNATHE LIONHNN-AMW-N--N--.wMMM 'W rMMr Why, it's gangsters. Who is the main man? It's Herschel Pitts, and his moll. Great heavens! It's our meek little friend, Mabel Sturgess. There is a roar, and an airplane appears overhead. Gertrude Quilleash, and in the cockpit is John Voss, the famous private detective, who always gets his man. Then the scene in the crystal changes and I see Ray Rainey, a meek little husband who always stays home fthe second Mr. Milquetoastj and gets dinner while his wife, Greta Garbo, earns the family bacon. Again the scene changes, and I see Clifford Ricker as an ambulance chasing lawyer in the dear old home town, St. Helens. Geraldine Schwab next appears on the scene, she has taken Miss Hamilton's place in the Senior English Class. The scene hasn't yet changed from St. Helens High, why it is Marvin Werings, and he has taken Mr. Bennettis place in the social science department, only he comes from the hills of Yankton instead of the plains of Indiana. The crystal changes, and, ah, woe is me, who is that lonely old beggar, with the beard to his knees, who has just asked Virginia Sutherland, the English Channel swimmer, for a bite to eat? Why, it's Clarence Singleton. Where, oh where, has his ability to hold up his head gone? Next I see a shingle over a door. Why, it says: Weed and Weed, famous seed growers. I presume it must be Melvin and Oren. Clifford Felton next appears on the scene as the absent- minded professor who has forgotten his spectacles, and has to have someone read the English lesson to him, as he teaches it. The light dims, the crystal clouds. That must be all. I could think of nothing but my old friends. I wasn't in the least relieved of my nostalgia, scenes from the lives of my fellow classmen had made it worse. I rose and followed my friend, the hag, down the long, dim corridor, and after she had extracted most of my fortune from me, I decided to buy a castle on the Volga with the remainder of it and spend the rest of my days trying to make gold out of water. -Clazre Bowen l23l
