l l Senior Prophecy--cont. Kirby Chapin makes her entrance into the room with an easy grace. In her hand :zhe hdlds a cablegram from her roommate of long ago, Ginger Steele. Ginger has been stranded in Russia for two months now because of the war, but as soon as peace terms have been made she will be able to get down into Spain. As a diplomatic interpreter she has done a remark- able lot of globe-trotting. , Kirby herself has done no small amount of traveling. What with looking up old pictures inyher History of Art studies and her honeymoon to Egypt, she has become familiar with many shores. To the question, XVhere's june Andrews? there is tio answer. Cali it be that our little friend has fallen by the wayside? Suddenly the door opens. and Andrews flies in and collapses on a chair with a little gasp of relief. If it weren't for the blue checked skirt we would hardly recognize her for the golden hair is silvering now. I'm sorry, she murmursg I just couldn't get here in time. I've been working so hard on my latest book. It's a translation of Winnie the Pooh into Latin, you know. just now a proud light comes into her eyes. And do you know, this morning my youngest son just discovered the Latin equivalent of the word Pooh in Mackail's Classical Invasion . A faint bird whistle is heard near-by, signifying the presence of Valinda Willis. After a short pause, during which scufflings are audible just outside the door, that worthy appears on the threshold. radiant in the knowledge that the great destiny of her life is about to be fulfilled. Her twenty philosophical volumes, entitled Antogeny Recapitulates Philogeny, and Others has just been accepted by the Hagerstown Arts and Letters Society. Our friend is fast rising to l'ClllOW Il . Well, girls, she says, as only Binny can say, I have a surprise for you, and in no time the door opens and into the suspense-stricken chamber file, like an army of well-behaved pen- guins, an army of well-behaved little boys, closely followed by a very well-behaved husband. Ruth Gregg, sitting over there chatting with Kirby, tells us she was nursing for a while in New York until she met her fate in the form of a young doctor. Now they're out in a little place called something like Osmatosia. He's doctoring the devoted natives and perfecting a device to keep his wife's hair from cotning uncurled on rainy days. Laura Brown comes in with news of herself and Annemarie Menz. It seems Annemarie has been recalled by the new regime in Germany where she is painting murals. It is rumored that the hearts of the entire govermnental stalf are at her disposal. Laura herself is happily married to a bishop and has many darling little bishops. Occasionally she t0lll'S through Penn- sylvania, giving singing concerts at the more elegant girls' schools. In rushes judith Downs, Olll of breath per usual. One can't really blame her for being a little late. After all, have you seen that antiquated station wagon she uses for long distance treaks! judy says that it is easier to put a promising blue-blood in the back of-a station wagon than it is to put the poor creature in a rumble seat. Oh, yes! She is quite the sportswoman. Between a family, horses, farms, and the worry of the next cross-country race, she has a great deal on her hands, and it is amazing to realize that she can really do it all. And here's another horse lover in Mary Wagner! That class must have been raised on the animals, but who wouldn't like it when she has acres of rolling southern hills and every bit of it given up to horses and dogs. With her, of course, is Gertrude Dorsey, and she's still busy knitting. Her family must be completely dressed in wool at the rate she's going, anyway. She has been helping Mary and has added a more gentle side to her animal farm by beginning to add Cals and small dogs. i211
