As I stepped from the Graf Zepplin at New York, return- ing from eight year's sojurn ln Germany, I became very much interested in the conversation of two girls near by. I step- ped closer to them and managed to hear a few scattered sent- ences. They were talking about the new Crystal Gazer who had been in the city only a month or two, but who already had made quite a name for herself. I was even more surprised to find that her name was Madame Fifi Toinette Murphy. I decided to visit her and renew our school day friend- ship. I did not have much trouble in finding her rooms. Al- though she was still very mysterious and quiet she expressed great joy at seeing me again. I asked her what it would cost me to find all about my school mates. If I had not been a friend of hers the cost would have been very high, but under the circumstances it was indeed quite nominal. After she had been in a trance for about fifteen minutes she began to murmur and mumble. I could not understand her at first, but as she began to talk more distinctly this is what I heard: James and Eloise Fluharty Arnett and family were living a quiet, happy life at George's Run. Opal Hamilton and Robert Jackson were co-starring in the latest musical comedy, Meat-Market Blues . Ralph Ashenhart had just won the title of Heavyweight Champion of the world. -'-lf A ' ' d ----ff SEE! H51 EQQEQI'-E3 4.-5
