In order to have a rescuer on hand “just in case,” the interviewing board for The Big Surprise, phoned to ask M rs. Davis’ color of hair, eyes, complexion, and her weight. They also asked her hobby and where she would like to go on a vacation, to the mountains or to the seashore, plus her favorite form of recreation. Commencing that reading was her choice for the latter, she chose the seashore for her vacation spot, for “I live in the mountains already.”
Holding in a tight grip a volumn of George Washington’s America, by Tebell (a student of Douglas Freeman) Mrs. Davis tackled her category, by coincidence, entitled George Washington’s America. The questions, and her answers as she remembers them are:
