Senior Prophecy SEVEN WONDERS OU ' VE heard of the seven wonders in the history of the past. And the record of those wonders no doubt will always last ; isLtelJl And so it is with the Seniors of the class of twenty-one; They, too, are seven wonders, and their record ' s just begun. For years I ' ve watched these Seniors, for I knew their worth was great; But just about their future I have wondered much of late. 1 knew no underclassman could tell the heights they would attain. And not even a professor could know the laurels they would gain. I knew of but one person whose great wisdom could forsee How great would be their record, and how famous they would be; So Father Time I summoned, for I knew he ' d counsel well, And he surely would not fail me, for always Time will tell. Oh, Father Time, I pleaded, Take the Seniors, name by name. And tell, e ' en though briefly, just what paths they ' ll tread to fame. Not one will disappoint ycu, for they ' re as loyal as can be. Then quietly and cautiously he whispered this to me : To start with, there ' s Joe Harrel; why, he ' s famous even now; You ' d think he owned McKendree (in partnership with his frau) ; But greater things await him, and to glory he will rise, For he is a minister and leads souls to Paradise. I can picture Lola nowhere except in a happy home. Where housework, neat and tidy, boasts of labor that ' s her own. Family quarrels may arise ; love ' ll be stronger for the jar. And she ' ll usually get what ' s wanted, whether a Wagon-er a car. There ' s Ed Gould, quite domestic, and with lots of manly pride; E ' er he starts his great career, he will capture some fair bride. Though he is musical, he ' ll not be a great musician, For Time has recorded that he ' ll be a mathematician.
