I duly christened it the Reflememoriscope, it being an apparatus of a complex nature, con- structed for the purpose of revealing past events by pictures. I turned on the switch and adjusted the dial to fourteen years back, in order to obtain a glimpse of Paris, France, and get an idea of what the war had done to the French capitol. To my great surprise the streets were crowded with civilians instead of soldiers and there were no flags flying. It seemed as though all the people were going to some particular place so with my Reflememoriscope I followed them and came upon a large crowd in front of a beautiful hall. They were all excitedly talking in French fof which I fortunately had some knowledgey about the great banquet being held in honor of America's new ambassador to France, Frank Matthiesen. I then realized that my invention was portraying the future instead of the past but decided that it was a valuable invention nevertheless and was satisifed with the results of my labors. My invention penetrated the walls of the building. Around a long table sat a large group of people, among whom I recognized several of my old classmates. At the head of the table sat Frank Matthiesen. Seated around the table were Paul Rofkar, Carl Quisno, Fredna Lutz, Gladys Muggy, Howard Carstensen, James Van Rensselaer, Flora Belle Minier and John Rohde. From their conversation Cfor my invention was also equipped with sound productionl I gathered that Paul Rofkar was em- ployed by the French government as an experimental chemist. Paul had recently discovered element 85, previously unknown, and it had been named Rofcium in his honor. Carl Quisno and Fredna Lutz were bliss- fully happy as man and wife. Carl had become very wealthy by specula- tion in Texas oils and was taking a vacation trip through Europe. Bosco Cas his wife fondly called himj was feeling fine and was in the best of spirits but said that he had not enjoyed the ocean trip. You see, Bosco was not a very good sailor. Flora Belle, who had gained some renown as an author, had just finished three months' research in Spain collecting material for her forthcoming book, Old Spanish Customs . It really wouldn't have been necessary for Flora Belle to make a trip to Europe for that! Howard Carstensen, James Van Rensselaer and John Rohde were members of an International News Syndicate and were foreign correspondents of the leading American newspapers. They told of many exciting experiences encountered in China, where they had been in fear of their lives several times while reporting on a revolution. Gladys Muggy had become well-known in the states as a promoter of the latest Parisian fashions and was in Paris learning the newest hat styles. She had just originated a charming creation called the Crownless hat for afternoon . Not being able to learn anything else of interest I turned my atten- tion to the other feature of my invention which was its power to bring Page twenty-one

I named Harold Dent and immediately the scene on the screen shifted to a classroom where I saw Harold conducting a class in Physics. After watching and listening a few moments I discovered that he was Professor of Physics at Columbia University. Professor Dent, a short time before, had created a sensation in the scientific world by bringing forth a new theory of motion. His calculations completely upset every phase of Einstein's theory. Upon giving Esther Kerr's name I saw a convent in southern France and just at this moment Esther emerged from an arched doorway in the sombre robes of a nun. She evidently had repented the frivolity of her youth. I turned to the microphone and spoke Howard Fritsche and on the screen loomed the interior of a small insurance office. At a desk sat Howard Fritsche dictating a letter to his stenographer, Helen Lacumsky, and at one side was Nellie Jane Mackey who, I believe, was a lawyer be- cause of the advice she was giving Howard about the letter. I found Oscar Lampe standing in front of his Buick Motor Sales talking to Mary I-Iartwig, his wife. Mr. Lampe was extracting some money from his pocket and giving it to Mrs. Lampe who grasped it like a drowning person would grasp a log. Then without another word she walked away. Oscar, turning back into the garage, sighed, It's a great life . Leroy Willabor had become a minister and was preaching to the people on how to travel the true path of everlasting' life. I said Kenneth Reichert and a vision of sunny California greeted me. Kenneth Reichert and his wife, Ruth Fehnrich, were operating a goat farm and seemed to be successful in raising many kids. James Kessler was the next object of interest. I found him seated in a cabin of rough logs fwith a sign above the door Hudson Fur Post y just finish- ing his supper and talking to his wife, who was none other than Armella Hopfinger. The outdoor life must have been agreeable to James for he was the picture of health and certainly had a wonderful appetite. The screen revealed Harvey Snider performing a number of breath-taking stunts on ice skates. He was skating on a large rink and the crowds were greatly pleased with his feats. Harvey was Olympic champion in figure skating. He had succeeded in doing three back flips and landing on his skates with perfect ease. He performed this seemfngly impossible stunt at the Olympic meet, thereby becoming champion. I found Alice Hurrell and Marie Hofacker in charge of athletics at Western Reserve. When I spoke Madonna Cooper's name I saw an artist's studio and there stood Madonna and, to my surprise, Mildred Fillinger was at her side. Both were dressed in smocks and thoroughly smeared with paint of all colors. The paintings on their easels were futuristic and Mildred was criticizing the canvas on which Madonna was working. I discovered Mary Koegle in a hospital dressed as a nurse. James Rowley entered the hospital at this moment and greeted her rather too warmly. He was an undertaker and she was a nurse. They seemed to be getting rich quick . Don Kohanke and Anna Rose Reamsnider were on the road with a Page twenty-two .l.
