CLASS PROP!-IECY We stayed overnight in Mattoon and saw the sightsg bright and early the next morning Joan insisted that we go shopping, so we went to Mattoon's largest de- partment store. As we were passing the managefs office, we saw the assistant manager perched on the manager's knee - - whispering sweet nothings in his ear. I thought I recognized the assistant manager, commented Joan, why it's Hazel Ferguson - - imagine! We shopped awhile, and since it was getting rather late in the morning Shirley and Melvin were ready to start the journey to Windsor, and invited us to ride along with them. tNaturally we accepted - - it would save bus farell When we arrived at our destination, they bade us farewell and left for their little home in the country. As we started up Main Street, we noticed some new buildings had been erect- ed, and one of them was a Farm Advisor's Office. As we drew nearer the door, it opened and out walked a distinguished-looking man whom we recognized as Kenneth Walker. We stopped for a moment to chat, and he told us that after winning various F.F.A. honors, he was appointed County Farm Advisor. He said he was on his way to see Lloyd Elson who is raising grand-champion Holsteins. Lloyd is married to a sweet, young girl and they have triplet girls. Quite a surprise we agreed since Lloyd was such a woman-hater in his earlier days! Kenneth murmured that he was sorry but he simply had to be on his way, so Joan and I started ambling toward the swanky Windsor Hotel. At that very mo- ment a messenger boy came darting forward with a telegram: Horses being rustled. Culprit caught. Come home immediately. D. Dunn We were sorry that our vacation had to be cut so short, but we had to rush back to those priceless horses. We took the first jet back to Dallas and arrived a half-hour later at the air- port. Dorothy was there to meet us, and she was all excited. She said that character named Robert McKenzie, a distinguished lawyer in these parts, had been caught loading our horses and selling them across the border as first-class Mexican stew. At present, he is in the clink, passing the time by reading comic books which tell how the fugitive escapes. We aren't going to make the charges too serious, though, since one of the old maids had a personal interest in him during her Senior year at W. H. S. My! after all this excitement we're due for another vacation, but at least we found out what all the Class of '52 are doing these days. We're all leaving for Australia next week, for a quiet three weeks, so - - Happy Landings! THEEND
