A bystander would never believe that he was editor of the most enterprising newspaper in Heaven and yet-BANG! The editor sat up with a jerk, and craned his neck to see what was ta.kmg place below him. He saw none other than Marion Packard in his Ford dirigible, who, having run out of gasoline, had collided with Louis Stallsmith, who was trying to drive his new Nash airplane through trafic. Louis was uninjured, but Marion flew gently toward the pearly gates. Saint Peter 's assistant happened to be on duty, and guess who it was, XVoody Holzbacher. The editor, who, by the way, happened to be Eli Barach, rushed out to meet the newcomer. Q This is a pleasant surprise, he said. Come in and make yourself at home. My gosh! ! exclaimed Marion, c'How did you get here? Oh, I've been here quite a time, Eli answered. Sit down and tell me all about the old gang. Heard anything about the Journal lately tl Great news! replied Marion. Bus Smith finally got a job. He rides the elevators, and is assisted by Sterling Wylie, who airs his views pro and con to all the Journal employees. Creta Kenney and Julia Lang have achieved great notoriety by invent- ing a 58th product for Mr. Heinz, who, by the way is the adopted father of our own Carl Heinz. Carl is a great help to his father as he illustrates all the can labels. Just then they were interrupted by Sylvia Bogatin, who hesitated at the pearly gates long enough to pull up her hot puppies and remark to Marion that she had forgotten her hall pass, and had gotten into the wrong place. However, as long as I'1n here, I want to hear all the news, she said. How's Melvin? asked ever-inquisitive Marion. '4Oh, he'll be up pretty soon. He went swimming early in March and caught a bad cold. ll ' - . ' By the way, interiupted Marion, Did you know that Laurence Xhleaver is electrician for a Follies Chorus, managed by Charles Kurson and Herman Thorn?
