CLASS PROPHECY T WAS in the late afternoon I wandered along the banks of Otter Creek in search of the beautiful and picturesque. My rambles extended to Lake Dunmore, which lies embosomed among the hills a few miles to the east of that quiet stream. It was here my taste for natural scenery was amply gratified, for there is no spot in the whole range of the Green Mountains that contains more of the requisites for a perfect landscape than the romantic sheet of water and its surrounding shores. As I stood there, my mind drifted back to my old Alma Muter and my classmates. I wondered what they were doing. With these thoughts in my mind, I went back to my camp and there lay down to sleep. As I slept, I dreamed a dream. I thought I was in an old mansion in which an old woman lived who some one had told me had prophetic power and could tell me about my classmates. Then I saw the old woman approach- ing, waving a magic wand. Dame Fortune, said I, will you give me information concerning my class- mates? And unhesitatingly, with one majestic wave of her wand, she brought into my presence a roll. I found it to be a special publication dedicated to the Senior Class of ' 28. This was the contents of it : On the front was a picture of the parsonage of the largest church in Chattanooga. On its porch is seated James Love Patterson, our dear old class President. He is said to be the best minister of Holston Methodism. Beside him sits his wife (who was formerly Miss Eve Lee Johnson). Pat, so interested in the cause of Christ, will surely lead many an unfortunate sailor into harbor before making the final port with flying sails. A picture of an evangelistic singer sending forth notes of sweetest melody that stir the penitents to bet- ter living. Familiar; but why shouldn ' t it be. for it is John W. Hillman. Ah. he is a second Caruso surely ! A football game at Chicago. Jack Shugart is pictured as head coach for the great Northwestern Uni- versity. His well-trained eleven is battling the lashing eleven of Dartmouth. No wonder the game ended with a tie score, for who is head coach for Dartmouth but Shugart ' s old roommate, Henry Casteel ? (Im- agine the President of the Lonesome Club coaching football!) This picture presents two familiar faces. O, yes, they are Mary E. Kidd and Irene Harrison walking along the streets of the mission field in India. They have a happy and beautiful expression on their faces, because they have been spreading Christianity to hungry hearts. Miss Louise Hodge, the sleeping beauty, is quite popular now. She has discovered the secret of eter- nal youth, and is running a beauty parlor in Miami, Fla.. so that she may benefit suffering humanity. Our friend Sleepy, Ola Lee Lowry (Miss Ola), is in partnership with her, and is taking advantage of the new cosmetics in order to win Buck again, little realizing that she must win him by love. A laboratory — beautiful, costly, and well equipped, said to be the best in the world — has just been com- pleted in St. Louis. It is owned by Lloyd Currin and Thomas Magill. They have made rapid strides in the scientific world. Their motto is, Bring us the impossible. Therefore, they are trying to discover a remedy that will heal broken hearts and thus cure Ikie. Chief Justice Taft has resigned his position in the Supreme Court of the United States, and Floyd Farmer, who, having long since decided to quit his wit occupies the seat of the Chief Justice. Among his associates sits Claude Stowers. better known to his classmates as Country ; and he, having arose to this position, has ceased to rise at six o ' clock and call ths cows. Among those who waved adieu to the great ocean liner, the Leviathan, that left for China a few days ago, was Earl Reynolds ; for China has claimed him as a surgeon, and he is destined to do much good rescuing the Chinese from disease and death. O, what a beautiful and magnificent hospital in New York! So wonderful is it that thousands come to it annually. It is owned by George Kennedy, and his motto is, Kill or Cure. Most of his profits are going to the promotion of medical missions in China. Ho, ho ! No more of the contents of the little brown jug for me. It ' s a picture of the Hall of the Leg- islature, and there stands Corrine Evans, Jolly, a stanch advocate for a nobler civilization and a bitter enemy to vice and crime. Dill is small in stature, but destined to do great things. Ah, fair art gallery, who painted these beautiful pictures in the display window? Manuel Tobias appears in the limelight. He, having reformed his native country, Mexico, has retired with his fortune to devote his time to painting, and with the superior paints he has produced some wonflerful painting}. I see a picture of James Hughes as appears on the campus of Princeton University. James will be awarded his Ph.D. in the near future ; then he will be ready to carry his old motto. I ' ll make my living with my brains. Another picture shows a European ship just coming in view. Two figures are standing at the rail —
