flaiievy I have been thinking about graduation so much the last few weeks that I had a dream last night in which I saw all the members of my class as they will be twenty years from now. In my dream Sonestown had become a thriving metropolis because of the oil which had been discovered in our area, and all my classmates had prospered. I learned all about my friends because my dream showed two men standing in front of a large building that had Sonestown Modern Department Store written across the front, and they discussed all the people who had been in school with them. These are the things they said: The fellow who operates the street cleaning machine had his leg broken when his wife, the former Helen Phillips, backed their car out of the garage and knocked him over a stone wall. Ioan Fiester married a doctor and is seen almost daily driving through town in a new Cadillac convertible. Nancy Smith is now operating a business school in the upper three floors of one of our new buildings. Jim Hunter is a man of leisure now that he owns two oil wells. When he isn't de- positing his money in the bank, he just loafs around in the shade. During the winter he loafs around in the shade in some warmer climate. Joyce Phillips Barto travels all over the country, and takes her ten kids with her. Everytime they do settle down in a home, the increases in the family cause things to get so crowded they have to move. Ben Laurenson doesn't live in our area anymore. He has a one htmdred thousand acre cattle ranch in Texas, and spends all his time there. I-Ie is quite famous down there since the time he stopped a big cattle stampede just by singing. They say that when Ben started to yodel the cattle stopped in their tracks and began to cry. Dene Andrews is known as Hot Rod Harry because he is seen day and night speeding over the countryside in a souped-up Rolls Royce. Beatrice Cox has a beauty parlor with sixteen operators working for her. She ran the place herself before the big boom. Bemadine Phillips owns the biggest self-service laundry in the county. She has fifteen washers working steadily every day. Donald Collins is the principal ofthe new North Mountain High School. Jane Smith has several oil wells too. She struts around town in a mink coat no matter what the temperature is. Ruth Botsford isn't too successful in her work as a nurse at the new Slippery Oil plant. It seems that she faints everytime she sees blood. The two men who were talking in my dream were Sidney Bigger and Harley Marcey. Sonny owns the department store that they are standing by, and Harley operates the restaurant called Ptomaine Heaven' which is well known all over the East Coast.
