Second All in favor-Ayef' Chorus: Aye Quick work-here I was Class Prophet with no more insight into the future than a rabbit. But the responsibility sobered me-regular Keeley Cure II. Ah, how am I to live up to this great trust, how can I prove mvself worthy of such vast confidence? I removed my scalp and scratched my brain meditatively. Ah, I will repair to that great seer, the Gillalula Bird, Mediator of Destinies, and inquire whether out of his vast store of wisdom I might glean a few garboons. Hastilv pulling on my stockings I departed and on bowed head I walked into the presence of the great Gillalula Bird, I explained my mission. The Gillalula Bird shook his head solemnly and muttered an incantationg a terrible rumbling was heard from the depths of the house! My wife snoring, he whispered, sepulcherly. From the corner cup- board the old seer produced three green onions and a bunch of Dawswas. These he compounded with a cup of black cat's milk and set simmering over a tire of incense. XV hen the aroma had completely penetrated the house and choked his wife Gillalula Bird squatted upon a scarlet rug, surrounded by the devilish devices of his black art. You wish to ascertain the mysteries of the future, to untangle the web of the Fates, do you. quoth he.

Hennecke-business manager of U. S. A., Incorporated. Elsie Izin-- let's see: she's that studious girl, isn't she? I am told that she shall have the Chair of Dead and Dying Languages in B. H. S. until she attains a marriageable age and then she'll depart like the rest of them. Vlfil- ham -Iessong he shall be employed at Harvard as Baseball and Basket- ball Coach. And Stanley jordan, he's that fiery-headed youthg it shall be his fate, after failing to gain the recognition of unappreciative puh- lishers of poetry and near-poetry, to retire to a suburban farm, raise Wfhite Leghorns and seek solace in the bosom of a loving family. julia Lea-as a famous Chautauqua entertainer does her future tend. George Martin. the chap you call Bunny, for him is spun a future of pharm- ing and philanthropy. Don Matthewg his future is rather a dubious one. I am told that he is to be a High Society Crook among the 400 of Limag he shall be notorious throughout the land for his cleverness and craft in stealing glances. Kathryn Meek is destined to a life of domes- tic felicity and usefulness. VX-'allace Miller-there's a fellow who will be some pumpkins in the musical worldg you'1l see his name on the electric lights, mark my word! Grace Neff-ah, future holds a place for her in the sphere of Jesse Wheeler VVilcox, Julia VVard Howe, and Fanny Crosby. Laura Neff-her usefulness to the world in the sphere of the schoolroom and the home shall be greatg one does not need pre- science to foretell that. A soft tongue turneth away wrath, therefore the Fates have wisely ordained that Herbert Neff a Methodist preacher D. D., shall be. Murray Plieiderer is next-gee! why don't they spell -it Flider? One would almost think from his name he was of German extraction. Say, he's a fellow that's hard to figure out, but it looks as if he will some day occupy the Chair of Physical Culture at Vassar. Grace Quaintance will go to war as a Red Cross nurse if there happens to be a war at the time. Carl Rehmg it shall be his privilege to some day wear the Cordon and Decoration of the Superbly Exalted Gloriously Grand High Jinx of the Deutsche Gesellschaft, which position he shall till in a modest and becoming manner. Then here's Leota Roopg say, do you know I can't do her justice? There's too many names here 5 my imagination is milked as dry as a 30-year-old cow. This business of handing out these near comic fortunes is all right about the hrst two or three laps, but when you get around to the R's it gets monotonous. You're doing finefy say I. Shut up! There you've gone and wasted another line. Leota Roop-well. here goes. l.et's see-I'll make heran Inter- national Spy, or a Vaudex-'ille'Star, I don't care which. Ah, here's chance to kill two birds with one stone. Lena and Bessie Ruth: we'll make them headliners on Beauty Bogan's Grand Musical Circuit, New York, London, Paris and Bucyrusg cable address 'Beanf A f'Mary Scott. XVe'll be'nice to her and ask the Fates to provide her with some good, dependable husband. R. F. D. Thelma Seeger- there's another hard nut to crack. Oh, she's already cracked, I blurt out.
