He continued to marvel at the events which had taken place since his graduation from high school: Timid Wilma O'Hern was now the much envied, private secretary of the new Mayor of Hopwood. the Honorable Sammy Williamsg quite, ambitious llester Baugh, head-nurse at the Clinic of Suffering, Death Hillg Anne Brownfield, so care-free and happy, Proprietress of the famous, Hungry March Inn g Serious Frank Balaban, the world renowned crooner: neat sedate Emma Scheggia, model for the greatest artist of the day, .Ioseph Seinans Esq.: Quiet Mahlon Franks, leader of the great Hollywood Jazz Bandg the old star, Wayne- Pratt, succeeding Primo Canera as the world's greatest prize fight.er.g-suddenly Attorney Rhodes was brought back to reality by the shrill cry of a newsie on the street below, Extra! Extra! famous physician victim of sudden death Dr. Concilus-- Attorney Rhodes waited to hear no more. He dashed down to the street, purchased a paper, and was about to return to his office, when his attention was drawn to a large number of people assembled a block away. Forgetting his intense in- terest in Dr. Concilus, he hurried to the scene of attraction. There he found only an organegrinder entertaining the crowd. He- would have retraced his steps immediately, but just the-n the organ-grinder be- gan to play a melody that Attorney Rhodes had never forgotten, his old Alma Mater song. A second glance at the organ-grinder revealed that it was Emery Kollar, as mis- chievous and fun-loving as of old. That evening the organ-grinder was a guest at the Rhodes home. He received a hearty welcome from Estella, who was more than glad to see him. For a long time they sat, talking about old times. Then Estella turned to her husband and exclaimed, Jerry, you will never guess who moved into the next cottage. Well now, let me think. Al Capone? Oh Jerry, do be serious at least once! But of course, you couldn't ever guess, even in a month of Sundays. Mr. and Mrs. A. Walter Dennis, Isn't that grand? They are coming over tomorrow night. You know whom he marrie-d, don't you? Why no, honey, I don't. The last I heard of Dennis was six years ago when he was representing the Knights of the Road i11 Brownfield. Whom did he marry? Do you know, Emery? Never heard of Dennis since he graduated. Estella will have to tell us. Why, he married Charlotte Nixon, of course. Not long after you saw him as a Knight of the Road, as you like to call him, he rescued the wealthy inventor, Eugene Guthrie, from a desperate criminal. Eugene rewarded him with a gift of 325,000 and a position as supervising manager of his factory in Hatfield. The first A. Walter did then was to propose to Charlotte, who accepted without a monie-nt's hesitation. And oh, Jerry, they have the sweetest twins! Well, that certainly was a breakg I mean, rescuing Eugene. But Deninie always was a lucky fellow, wasn't he, Emery? Yes, he always said he was born under a lucky star. Seems to me it must be true. His Friend, Bixler, must have been born under a lucky planet. What did he do, discover a gold mine? Invented a lieedetector. The Government offered him :F6,000,000 cold cash. Guess tliat's as good as a gold mine!! And how! By the way, did he marry Lucinda Swan? Oh, they were mar1'ied two months after graduation. Didn't think they'd break, did you? Hardly. But. say, what ever became of Steve Kazimer? Why, I don't know. Have you heard anything about him, Este-lla? You don't know what became of Steve Kazimerl Surely yoti have heard of his latest novel, 'Condemned Inno Kahn ? He is the most popular modern author, and the literary world marvels at his extraordinary talent. Next you will he telling me you know nothing of Nancy Frankhouser or Bert Husteadl Perhaps it may be strange, but I have lost track of both. How about yoti, Emery? I'm afraid I, too, must confess my ignorance. Do you mean that you have never seen Nancy or Bert on the screen? The leading stars of Hollywood, and you two loose track of them! That reminds me, our little song bird, Eleanor Galvin, is singing at 5:45.

THE EAGLE , 27 Well, my dear, if you are planning to listen to her, you had better tune in rather quickly. It is no-w 5:55. You may he-ar her last number. 5:55! How the time flies! Hurriedly, Estella tuned in at station K U K U. She was just in time to hear the announcement, Miss Galvin will again be on the air at this time next Saturday eve- ning. She will be accompanied by the famous Pianist, Miss Lois Johnson. This pro- gram is brought to you through the courtesy of the Springer-Roth Co., Manufacturers of those famous Springer-Roth Hair Curlers guaranteed to curl the hair within six min- utes. Well, I missed Eleanor, but I won't miss Etta Gilland. who is playing the leading role in Ruth Shannon's gre-at mystery play, 'The Unbroken Seal.' She will be on in fifteen minutes, so I may as well turn to station W I Z A now: The Roaming Cowboy's Serenade was just beginning. Softly came the strains of a guitar, and a voice singing, The Cowboy's Lament. Why, that sounds like Robert Phillips, doesn't it? That's just who it is. I could tell his voice in a million. Reme-mber how he used to play and sing for us during home-room periods? I'll never forget that song he used to sing about Frankie and Johnnie. Wonder what became of his two pals, Mike Bednarik and Max Plichta. Ever hear of them, Emery? Max Plichta is head waiter at the Everly Cafe. Earl certainly has a classy place. Ever been there? Well, you ought to visit him soon. I go there frequently, but he makes me come in the back door. You know how it is, all the big, rich guys go there, and they might feel hurt seing me there, too. But I don't mind that because Max always makes up for it by giving me double-measure. By the way, remember VV!anda Rout and Nell Stotelmeyer? They were in the floor-show the other night. They sa-ng the late number composed by Ruth Lawson, Only A Butterfly. Earl says he is thinking of hir- ing them for the season. But what became of Mike? f'Oh, Mike and I spend quite- a bit of our leisure time together. He used to give me a great deal of competition, but we soon fixed that. We agreed to take certain sec- tions of the town, and each must stay within his own territory. The kids sure do like him. But how could he compete with you? Is he an organ-grinder, too? No, he's a peanut vender. Still, I can't see how that would give you much competition. Well, being a peanut vender doesn't, but he dresses like the pied-pier, and plays Mother Goose melodies on a fife. Had. he not compromised, I would have been forced out of business. Mike always was a jolly fellow. By the way, Estella, did you know that your old chum, Ethel Hagerty, was in the hospital? Ethel in the hospital? Why only two days ago, I received a letter from her telling me that she had secured a position as hostess in an airplane, and was leaving within an hour for her first trip. Surely you must mean someone else. No, I mean Ethel Hagerty. The-y had almost reached their desination, when the pilot, Murray White, lost control of the plane, and they crashed. Besides Ethel and Murray, three of the passengers were seriously injured. Among them was Alice Barnes, the noted dress-designer, who was enroute to Paris. Sadie Massimiani, the celebrated novelist, was also aboard the plane, but she escaped without injury. Poor Ethel! , I will wire her some flowe-rs tonight. What could have caused Murray to loose control of the plane? No one knows. He is still unconscious, and until he regains consciousness, it will all remain a mystery. Speaking about recent events, did you two hear of the sudden death of Doctor Con- cilus? Why I purchased a paper for the sole purpose of reading about that, but the sur- prise of seeing my old pal, Emery, made me forget it. Se-e, here is the paper. Since you know the detials, what do you say to telling Emery and me about it, Estella? There is very little to tell. He was found lying on the floor of his bedroom e-arly this morning by his fathful valet Leslie Fields. Coroner E. Warman was called, and upon investigation of the case, reports that Dr. Concilus died a natural death. Heart trouble seems to have been the cause. He will lie in state at the Lenox Morgue until Tuesday morni-ng. His funeral will be held in St. Mary's R. C. Church at nine o'clock, with Rev. Father J. Robert Carbin officiating. What J. Robert Carbin officiating? What do you mean, my dear? Surely you would not joke about such a serious matter. f'But Jerry, there is no joke about Robert Carbin being a Priest. He is Assistant Pastor of St. Mary's Church, and will conduct the funeral services for our beloved friend, Frank Concilus. Rev, Father Carbin! I can't believe it, can you, Eme1y? Well, it is hard to belie-ve, but he did say he was going to be one. No one ever believed him though, for he was to wild. Wild? And how! And he only went to church on Christmas and Palm Sunday and Easter! To think that he has devoted his whole life to the Church now! Strange things will happen. Strange things-Why, Jerry, Emery, listen to this: 'Francis Allan and Maxine Griffith are returning from their trip abroad, on the Steamer Sante Cassino. They are' being accompanied a short distance by the Rev. Donald McMillan, who will join a COHJDHDY of YOLlng ministers in Montevideo, preparatory to his departure to China where
