20 THE WALNUT TREE iniitiiiiiiiiifiiifmiMitiwiiNiiiiiiiiiiiin)MiMiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiuifflUiiimniiitiiRNnniininniiim CLASS PROPHECY Dorothy Anderson (with Miss still attached) now thin, frail and grayhaired sits in a lonely room gazing dreamily into the Crystal Globe of Life. Her mind was recalled to the happy days when she was sponsor of the class cf ’23 and wondering what their station in Life may be. The Globe now reveals a scene far different. Then as in a mist she sees a small dim image—it grows larger and larger; suddenly the mist clears away and there in the sparkling crystal she beholds Allen Shoaf. He is running an implement shop at Lailhalt with a plentiful supply of leather so he can keep the children in shoes. With the help of his plump wife, Norma Westphal, he manages very well. The lights become brighter and to her surprise Miss Esther Strousse is singing in Italy with fame that reaches from continent to continent. The image again changes. This time it is Gordon Meisenheimer. He is smiling just as he smiled back in those High School days when he played Basket Ball but he is playing a different game now for he holds the billiard championship in the United States and is expecting in the early spring to tour Europe. Evei-ett Ganschow is chief chef in one of the famous Chop Suey Shops in New York. Senator Mary Keigwin is now compaigning for a bill which would put head-lights on aeroplanes. Beatrice Ioder is now in Colorado at Hot Springs taking Hot Baths for “Vampiritis.” Marvin Fox and his wife, formerly Viola Gallentine, are now drawing very high salaries as professors of Mathematics in California. Walter Akison is now in charge of a show troupe, the fastest troupe known and is traversing the Western continent. Violet Stephens, through sympathy with herself is now at the head of an old maids’ school in Hawaii. Her most faithful and diligent helpmate with his philosophy, all worn and faded is Fred Dremann in an adjoining bachelor apartment. He is writing an essay on “How to Win a Woman.” nitiiii:ii!iuuiiiiiiiaiiiniiiiiiH(iuiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiHiitiiiiiiiHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiHiiii«iiiiiiminimu iiiiiiiuiiMiiitiiiHitimuiiiii!iuiiiuiiiKiiutmiuiiiiiUiuitiiitiNiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!iiiiitiniiiiitiiiiiiiHnnHinHiiiiiiitiiinmiiii4tiiiiuiiiiiti!itiHm«tniiimc
