...g,.-.Tf-vga REFLECTOR Reflectorville Fair Howard Dickinson is making campaign speeches in the Federal Building for the next presidential election. He's promised Rose Fergason, Virginia Provenzon and Wanda Walker that he'll start a C. C. C. camp for girls so they can get to the other camps easier. The Farm Exhibit seems to be a large attraction. Why shouldn't it be with Jasper Brown, Ralph Rudolph, Paul Alger, Harold DuMond, Horace Palmer, Eunice Dickerson, and Lillian Jump there? They're trying to fix the milking machine so it will run without their help. They don't like to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning. The girls would like to stay in the Athletic Building longer. Can you blame them? Ant. Donaloio and Frederick Cleveland are instructors there. ln the Book Department, they fird Batty Barry trying to find a publisher for her late:t essay on Ferdinand and the Bee. Adjoining the Book Department is the Poetry Department whire Annie Greeley is exhibiting her verses. The First Aid Station is conducted by Mary Comfort and Eleanor Plossl. Their patients are well taken care of, especially good-looking ones. To recuperate they go to the Amusement Area where they are met by children's laughter as they enter Children's World. Marie Dibble, Ruth Freiberger and a lot of others are merrily playing Ring Around the Rosie . The Jungleland displays the catch from the wilds of Africa. Clifford Waldron and Warren Haskins brought 'em back alive. QBeasts, you dopesj. For miles around you can hear Betty Worth's laugh and Helen Cutting's giggle. They'll teach you how if you ask them. Elizabeth Payne is starring in the Aquacade , thrilling the spectators with her daring feats! 1Big one tool. Last but not least is the Music Hall with Thelma Hauschild and Erma Olmsted. Music hath charm, you know. Could it be the singer? Tired bu? well satisfiedg they leave their guide. They'll never forget the fair. -Janet Hemens and Lucy Harris 23

REFLECTOR Reflectorville Fair Come to llcflectorville Fair and see our wonderful displays , cries barker Douglas Phelps as our new-comers, Electa Pace, Robert Lewis, and Frederica Eldridge, pass through the gates. They don't know where to begin so they ask for a guide. The guide is Boice Hodges. Boy, he'1l show them around! First, he takes them to the information booth to get some facts about the fair. The information girl is Geraldine Henry. She gives out information 140 words a minute and that's pretty fast. Armed with this data and their guide, they continue their journey to see the wonderful exhibits. Force of habit takes them to the Education Building where the hopeful young protege, Janet Hemens, is learning the tricks of the trade under the watchful eyes of Miss Fowler and Miss Metz. Then they go to the Telephone Exhibit. There they find a young gentleman, Fharles Moss, telephoning to his sweetheart, Marthena Howe. Of course, we couldn't iepeat the message! Next is the art exhibit. There Evelyn MacGregor and Trudy Wuthrich are sketching beautiful cartoons of famous men in the world. The one of Hitler is outstanding. You'd never recognize him. The Home Building exhibits the bliss of the home. Rosetta Finch demonstrates dish-washingg Florence Bowermaster, ironingg Nathalie Wheat, cookingg and Marion Laraway, sewing. Ther're just getting in practice for the real thing. Lucy Harris, who was chosen Miss Reflcctorville, is modeling in the Hall of Fashion. 1The building is very popular with the boys.i Next they came to the Food Zone, James Panaro's big attraction. He's in his glory acting as official food sampler. Even at the Fair they can't get away from school. A big crowd draws their attention to the French Exhibit where Elizabeth Spencer and Francis Pratt are amazing l'?i their foreign visitors with their French. To get it over all at once they take in all the exhibits that are reminiscent of school. ln the Business Building they find the ideal secretaries, Percilla Wright, Ruth Seeley, and Glenda Galley. We wonder if they're the lap type . In the Science Building, is Jack Worth trying to find a cure-all for blackheads. H1-'s worried about his own. lf they get lost, we advise them not to go to the lost and found department, or Guy Fitch, at the head of it will put them to work looking for his long-lost pencils. They hm-ar the roar of motors as they near the Transportation Zone. Bill Phillips, Frederick Wiedeman and Grover Masters are having a race in their tin ljallopiesi. Whoops, one of them just broke down! 22
