W - 7': l mirror where she was shown a banquet room in a very ele- gant home and whom do you suppose headed the table. It was Lillian Holmes who is now the belle of Winton Society. Upon turning to the next mirror, Ellen is transferred to a circusground and the first thing she sees is a sign hanging over the Main Entrance, Hansenis Museum. In- side she discovers the main attraction as Lucille Beveridge who entrances the audience with her feature Clown Stunts. Leonard, seeing Ellen, comes and tells her that after many vain attempts at being a banker he has decided that being such a freak the best thing for him to do is to run a mu- seum. Then from all this excitement she is immediately transferred to a ranch home some hundred and twenty miles north of Rock Springs. Everything appears to be quite desolate but still has the appearances of a home. Soon the door opens and a rosy cheeked young girl steps out and breaths the sweet air of the evening. Dolly says that she never had a minutes rest in the city so she had to get out where she could have freedom to write her books. We have all read her book Roaming the Prairies. There is another author in the class, one of the first things Ellen is interested in is her appearance. She sees a tall, mediumly complected, gray eyed woman with the fashionable inch- wide horn rimmed spectacles. She is dressed in a very tail- ored suit and looks almost forbiddingly stern. Who? Why Margaret Brooks, she is a suffragette and spends her time talking and writing of the utter horror of letting men rule over women. Then she comes to a low rambling cottage with a small garden, a rose arbor and nearly covered with Virginia creepers. She pauses to peep inside and there she finds Doris Hanks who is still motheris little girl. It is Sunday morning and over the soft morning air Ellen hears the chiming of the church bells. She feels that it would be well to go to church but to the utter amazement of Ellen who should she find filling the pulpit but Robert Muir. His sermon seems to be a very interesting one, as he is able to hold the interest of his audience. Then Ellen is taken down the street and stops dum- founded before the theatre, for whose names and pictures does she find there all blazing? Mary Drebick and Albert Bertagnolli leading stars in Get More Speed? Albert has replaCed Wallace Reid in his dare devil deeds and Mary now plays the parts which Norma Talmadge was famous for. Going up the street she comes to a mass1ve home, one of the very oldest colonial styles. Upon being shown the interior she sees before a large fireplace a young woman whom she formerly knew as Hannah Hay but who has now acquired the title of Mrs. Paul Subic. Paul has replaced Page Nineteen

She smgs and mumbles to herself as she watches the throngs of gayly dressed people wend their way along the thoroughlare. Coming down the street we see a young woman dressed m a very plain costume and at a glance we can see she 13 not a native of the Nile. Ah! It is Ellen Martln .and she IS dreaming of a day just ten years ago when she w1th twenty- one others started out to win for themselves some fame in this world. Ellen spies a sign hung on the wall of the hut, Egyption Clairvoyont hear about your friends. ttI believe I will go and ask her what has become of my classmates. Good Morning, Miss. ttI would like to hear about the different members of my graduating class ? . tlJust follow me and we shall soon be able to see your friends at their various labors. Ellen followed the woman into a large room, which is surrounded with mirrors. In the center is a small fountain from which the water comes over the edge and trickles, tinkling into a tiny pool of water which is just as clear as a crystal. Around this pool are mosses and flowers which make you feel as though you have stepped into an enchanted garden. Oh! What a wonderful place, sighed Ellen. ttHave you anyone you would like to see first, Miss Martin? I believe I would like to see Clara. it seems to me that she will be doing some interesting work and I must have something to take this despondent mood from me. Just turn to your right and there you will find Clara. Ellen turns and before her blazes a thousand little electric lights. She soon recognized it to be the outside of the Rialto Theatre of her old home town, Rock Springs. Then she was shown inside to a luxurious box. Soon the cur- tain rose and as Ellen looked at her program and then at the stage she found Clara Thompson to be leading lady in the Greenwich Village Follies. Then she turned to the next Page Eighteen

Mr Allred as Chief of PoliceOtih the c1ty and seems to be . ' cess of his pos1 Ion. maklIlge: assughe decided to have a glance at the old.school building, it is shown to her, but to her great surprlse she finds two of her classmates on the faculty, Joe Angelovxch is now taking Miss McCallis place as Chemlstry teacher and also as sponsor of the Junior class, however he flnds It a rather difficult task to manage such an upruly bunch 0f people. He says, he wishes that MIss Ferls was there to help him out. Margaret Connor takes MISS Burke s place as teacher of the commecrial subjects. She says she can- not understand how Miss Burke ever managed to keep a ' i ion. . gOOdT?:EO:stEllen walks down the street she flnds a large building with spacious grouhds and from appeatances she judges it to be a girls' semmary. As Rock Sprlngs never was known to have such a thing 1n.her.H.1gh School days, of course she is interested. Upon mqumng she flnds that Ingrid Sturholm has started a school for glrls and boys where she teaches them all the laws and rules of love. N ext door to the building she sees an asylum for homeless cats and dogs. Why whoever thought of such a thmg In Rock Springs, but moreover who would have ever belleved that Marjorie Grifiiths would take up th1s sort of soc1al work. However, she is making a grand success of her chosen career. Now Ellen travels out to the western coast and here in the city of San Francisco she finds Helen Willson speCIal- izing in teaching boys to dance. Nevertheless she takes girls under special restrictions. As her star pupil Ellen finds Fred MacDonald. She is greatly surprised at h1s mar- velous improvement and if he keeps up some time in the near future he will become a famous toe dancer. While looking on here, who should appear but Rudolph Menghini. He acts excited and rushes over to Fred. In his hand he has a letter. Dear R. If she wont talk don't talk to her. B. V. Its a letter to the Lovelorn. Bearice Visintainer has made a specialty of this work, as she said the world was sadly in need of such a wise person as she and the best way she could give her wisdom to them was in this way. Incidently Rudolph manages to keep her pretty busy answer- lng his questions. Now Ellen you have seen what your class mates are doing with the exception of .one, that is Mildred Anderson. May I ask what has she chosen to do ? She stands before you. I have chosen to reveal to peo- ple what they or their friends are doing in the past, pre- sent or future. iiMildred, I am very glad that you were able to tell me about my friends as it has helped me immensely. I be- lieve that I will be able to go back to my work of mending broken dolls for the Eygptian children? Page Twenty
