McNutt and Raymond Springer, both - candidates for Governor .that year, and hoth . past state commanders of the American Legion, : n ~ w THE SITE is considered the American Legion's most sacred shrine here, Legion officials say. Male visitors are asked to remove their hats and a reverent attitude is requested of all persons in the presence of the tomb. Small stone insets in the lawn remind: “This ground is dedicated to the illustrious dead. Fitting recognition is desired.” ; . Mr. Henley said he presumed the Cenotaph's general dedication would apply to World War, II as well as World War I dead; “They're really casualties of .the same broad conflict,” he pointed out. “Future generations won't divide their respect.”

She worked .on a much sounder basis than some later seers, trying to calm my fears with a “chin-up” routine. In return I nodded a surprised assent to most of her guesses about my family and past life, leaving her in a good mood as she placed two bucks in the pocket of her starched print apron. I heard about Mrs. King after I | ROY a cold brushoff at the rococo |residence of Mrs. Dollie Clark, at 1415 Central ave. Works by Appointment It seems that Dollie works by appointment only, and a good volume, too, judging from the number of people who had mentioned going to her when I asked if they knew any fortune tellers. I later got into the Clark combination home and “church,” a large brick building which flaunts stained glass windows, rows -of smoothly polished pews and a large painting of: Christ in the. garden: ™ of Gethsemane. The occasion was a mass meeting, at which more than 30 women and one soldier dropped a quarter and a ‘question in the box and waited for Dollie to tell all! Sits by “a Departed”

I was sitting next to the bereaved, but scooted quick when Dollie beamed and said she saw the “departed” sitting between us.

‘Husband Has Fever’

She saw my husband as perhaps suffering a fever but he was “coming home.” For the $2 I got a mes|sage from my “departed” daughter, my two dead aunts (I'have none) and most of the living members of my family whom she saw “in spirit.” She opened and closed with a prayer, put heavy stress on reli{gion and intermixed sound philo{sophic creeds with her predictions.

Without stepping for breath she told me my husband was either dead or missing now, that if he was still alive it wouldn't be for long. She said he undoubtedly was a drinking man, that he was due for a 12-yehr bad luck cycle “if he lives through it,” that she saw another letter edged in black for me and all sorts of other cheery news about my immediate family. About 30 minutes—two bucks. My next stop was a home on W. New York st. It looked like a cigaret line. I won't mention the woman’s name because all 1 can report is hearsay.
