7 Ng Ei- X 1 g . -rua as-N Q The bright light eyes of the prophet began to fade, as he grew visibly more fatigued. To the amazement of the group before him, he cast aside the silver veil, disclosing a creature supercilious of mien and facial expression, conscious of the fact that his powers were extraordinary, and that thousands upon thousands of super' stitious mortals were faithful to him and considered him a god. He again hesitated and seemed to reflect. The high priestess appeared, bringing him of wine which was to inspire him anew. Immediately the chamber was iilled with the light of the prophet and, again having replaced his silver veil, he resumed his gradual unfolding of the future to the remaining few. I see Alice Bilton, impelled by an inherent desire for social service, enlisted with the workers for relieving the suffering Eskimos. For days and days she travels from one little colony to another on the picturesque dog sleds, through prairies of snow. Alice is fortunate in many, ways, but her work in the north often exposes her to many dangers. ,She has also destroyed the last vestige of a slum in Chicago, and I see her the head of a great factory with its noble motto: 'More and better golf ballsf . Anne Sullivan will in about ten years have received her Ph.D. I see her as the assistant professor of philosophy at D'Youville. She is very stern and austere, that is, during classes, but out of class she is as merry as of old. Since two girls only remained, they entered the chamber of anticipated terrors together. - I The prophet proceeded: I see Julia Murphy a teacher of English in France. I sec flocks of French children crowding about her on her way to the school in the center of Bordeaux The bell rings and all the students are in their places, attentively listening for the words of the teacher. They call her Mlle. Julie. ..-rn:r:The powers of the prophet were apparently failing and with one last effort he concluded: .v-if Genevieve Geraty will be a most fortunate girl. She will inherit enviable wealth, and with her private yacht and 'planes will travel about the world defluxe. In view of her sympathetic nature she will spend a great deal of her money, relieving the dire conditions of the distressed. i The room grew suddenly bright and there appeared an opening through which was visible a most glorious sun, just going to rest beyond the western horizon. Upon the painted green sea slowly rocked their tiny barque, and all the world seemed to say, Come forth now, my young friends, and see what the future really does hold of sorrow or surprise. ' They did go. Were they curious? Perhaps! - ALFHILDE BRBDENBBRG 7 54

5. . QUVILLI it X ' VI ANN Rather different was the fate of the close intimate of Ogaretta, Cora McKowne. On and on went the prophet. I see a dainty creature in the center of a stage before a vast audience. There is not a murmur anywhere. The entire assembly is thrilled. This little person is holding each individual breathless. With her they laugh and cry! just now they are laughing for she is telling them the story of the bread and applesauce from f I 11 one of Booth Tarkington's novels. Cora will be very success u as a storyfte er, Clare Crehan, the third of this triumvirate, followed suit, anxious to hear of the years to come. Cl C han 1 baby hygiene worker Having an innate love for little I see are re . . tots, dirty, clean, white or yellowg healthy or weakg she will sacrifice her life for babies. She will marry a man equally fond of children, and I see far in the future a country ,home where there are numbers of children playing about in glee. Clare has three of her own, but every week she opens up her home and estate to the poor little children of the slums. Rita Laughlin was the next in this mysterious seance. The prophet-chief hurried on, for prophesymg the farfoff events in the lives of twentyffive girls was no easy task. Rita, suppressing her ready mirth, appeared before the prophet. Rita Laughlin in years to come will follow her natural vocation. I see her the chief dietitian in a hospital for the undernourished. Her appetizing concogtiong h h nds of emaciated mortals from all points of the world, Some have broug t t ousa day she may be bustling about in her own kitchen preparing delicious foods for her family! Who knows? bell R'l the maid of many capabilities leaving a greatly diminished May e ley, , number of girls still in darkness, gladly joined the more fortunate ones. The prophet 'b'l' ' th t l th Su reme nodded, sighing, These talented girls have so many POSSI 1 ities a on y e p B ' knows what the future holds for them-but I shall do my best. emg Ma belle Riley though so astute in her school days, shall prove a false prophet, Y i Gone are the white gate, the wicker fence, the romantic lanes and the peaceful cowg for a young Lochinvar has come out of the XVest and Maybelle has succumbed at last. I Marie Burke could conceal her excitement no longer, and when the sono,-ous voice sounded her name she responded almost automatlcally. . . H, K h In the future I see Marie Burke a musical manager. To her Bu alo owes f e l rams of music by excellent masters She has been influential in artistic, flaw ess prog . . the erection of a Temple of Music in Snyder, New York, where future Paderewskit - - h an ' Farrars and Curcls are being trained by the best teac ers. Loretta Finn, quite filled with mingled emotions of curiosity and dread, followed Marie. I see Loretta Finn the faithful collaborator with Marie. Loretta knows just ' fur nests for luncheon and when to invite forty for dinner, when to invite oi g Efficiently she relieves Marie of all the petty details entailed in public life. Marie, weary and worn from the exacting ways of the world, finds a restful friend in Loretta, and Loretta proves irresistible with her contagious giggle. 73
