Mysurprise was boundless when I discovered, further, that two of the prosperouslooking directors were myoid classmates of '24, name!y, MaryBrady and Clara Hunley.I was glad to find that the next scene was in <strong>Linton</strong>. The town ,vasmuch larger than before. High buildings loomed up everywhere, andprosperous looking business establishments were very much in evidence.There was a new post office. Inside this, in a room with "Postmaster"printed on the door, sat a man and two women. One of these was evidentlyhis wife. The other, I concluded from the conversation, was th8 wife ofa wealthy manufacturer of Chicago. In a little while I recognized ElmerMoss, and you can imagine my surprise when I discovered CatherineSharp to be his wife. The other lady was Margie Parks.Again the scene changed, and I saw an elaborate building in New Yorl~and a sign which read, "Sylvia Bach, Modiste." I saw her emerging fromi.he shoppe; she nodded at a gentleman and lady who passed in a beautifullimousine. I learned to my astonishment that they were the Mayor anlthis wife. Looking closely, I discerned the lady to be Mabel Rupert andthe man to be Clyde Reintjes.The next scene which came to my eyes was a Bolshevik meeting inNew York. The maddened crowd was jeering, laughing and threatening.and waving their arms in wild gestures at the speakers. But just atthat moment a new speaker appeared. He was applauded with shouts ofpraise and vigorous handclapping. I knew at onee that this was Lesliel\1'yers, grand chief of the Bolsheviks.In the next picture I saw a hospital in Indianapolis; a white cappednurse was hurrying here and there. It was Mabel Stein! A doctor detainedher in the hallway. I soon recognized him as Frank Gennicks. Thenurse then entered a room and paid much concern to a patient whom Iknew at once was one of myoid classmates. Upon looking closely I recog··nized Cecil Morron. From the converc:ation which followed, ,I learned thatZeke was a valuable member of the D. S. C. (Department of Street Clean ··ing) of Indianapolis. He had accidentally stumbled over a garbage canand had broken his left elbow.The scene faded, but another almost instantly took its place. I saw abuilding where a musicale was being held. I was not surprised when 1l'ecognized Mary Symms as the pianist there. I soon discovered two morewhom I knew; they were Maude Woodruff and Lillian Taylor, who werenow celebrated singers.The next scene showed the exterior of an opera house. J n flamingletters a sign read, "Mildred Humphreys in 'Conquest of Man.'" Thiswas declared by critics to be the best play on the stage. I noticed in thelist of characters supporting her were Aileen Brown and Hazel Bunch. Itwas indeed a great surprise to me to learn that three of my classmateswere on the legitimate stage.Following this picture I saw a gymnasium in which a c:)mely womail• 11111. 11m. 11 1. 111. 1111. 11 11 . 11 11 11 . 1111.111 1: • . 11 11 • . 111. 11 1.
