Gazing into the crystal, a

it is Fay Marie Sullivan.
Now I see a neat little cot-

the yard. The mother calls to
them. She is Henrietta Jurek.
Now the crystal is blurring.
I can no longer see. But we are
grateful for these short glimp-
ses of our old friends and class-

doing so nicely for themselves.
