304 GIRLS' HIGH SCHOOL CLASS PROPHECY. If I have Whispered truth, whisper no longer, Speak as the tempest does, Sterner and stronger. It was the tenth anniversary of our High School graduation. I thought, as I looked out at the flowers in the garden of my home in Los Angeles, what would I not give to be back at old P. H. S. once more and be among my old school chums again. As I was sitting there remembering, wishing, dreaming, my husband came rushing in and asked me if I would like to go across the States with him, he on business, I on pleasure. Once again my power of wishing had not failed me. So, one week later, hubby and I were driving in our car, contendedly gazing eastward. We made few uneventful stops before we came to Reno, Nevada. In Reno, do as the Renoites do, someone said, and so I strolled' into a divorce court, all unprepared for the surprise that greet- ed me. , , Good gracious, I thought, if that judge doesn't look like Elizabeth Archibald! Sure enough. Silence reigned as E. A. walked stately down the aisle and began the work of the afternoon. First case called. I didn't recognize the names but I nearly fell off the seat when Dinah Levenstein walked up to the witness lnox and took oath. While giving testimony she tried to vamp every man in the-audience. But that wasn't all, she named Minnie Rothstein as the woman in the case! Next case. Ye gods and little monkey wrenches-Edith Thompson weeping buckets full because her husband insisted upon drinking his tea without any sugar in it. Phew, it was getting too hot for me! Next on the program was Margaret Thomp- son. I wanted to screecn as she told the jury that her husband had absolutely refused to give her a, million dollars a year for pin money. We all had a grand and glorious chat after Judge Elizabeth dismissed court . About a week later, in Utah, we crossed a beautiful river, named in honor of the famous Opera Star, Margery Greene. We were dying to hear her sing but our informant told us that she was touring Europe at that time! We had not gone more than a few miles farther when we 'came to a sudden standstill. Two people were having a fight right in the middle of the road. Upon separating them we found them to be Mae Barrowclough and Edna Wardle. They proceeded to explain the cause of the disturbance. It seems that they were both married to the same Mormon and Mae said it was her turn to go for him in the car that night and Edna said it was hers. WVe tried to help them out of their difficulty and all was well when we left them. That night we heard Elva Dutchess, noted evangelist, preach on the sins of Mormonism. As an introduction someone lead a few poems written by the famous Elva P. P. Once, at a hotel in New Orelans, we had the most delicious pancakes for breakfast I ever tasted in my life. I found out that they were made with Aunt Bernice's Pancake Flour, and who do you sup- pose manufactures it? Why Bernice Rouser, of course, rich and successful now. While my hubby was attending to some busi- ness at Memphis, I decided to dig upf' Florence Abbott whom I had heard was doing some re- search work in connection with her History of the Civil War. I found not only Flo. but her stalwart captain, Eliz. Konesky. The pair of them were doing wonders. I left them later on, and knowing that we had rather a dull trip ahead of us I bought two books to read. One was by Edna Daly and the other by Sarah Berman, the two foremost novelists of the time. Not so bad, eh? Hubby informed me that we might stop at Lexington to see the big horse race. Onward to Lexington we rode. The race track was be- decked with flowers and flags and we settled down to enjoy the race. It was feverishly ex- citing and Sylvia-Rebecca came in first, the finest thoroughbred I had ever seen, incident- ally named after Sylvia Cheifitz and Rebecca. Harelick, great cross-continent walkers. My goodness, a. girl jockey and none other than Margaret Ward! As I was trying to make my
