m liming m iaiBaiiiiiiiiBiiiiiyiio lies and Gentlemen : I am so pleased that you will give me aiS portunity to demonstrate to you this evening my new science. In this rid of changing conditions and rapid progress, this science has been lmost crowded into oblivion by such minor matters as cosmetic clay packs, Mah-Jong, shingle bobs and other matters of state. But it has come to pass that the veil of the future can be pierced for each of us by the trained diagnosis of our silhouettes. This training is long and weari- some, but I, who have had it, tell you that it more than repays one for the study, as I shall leave you to judge for yourself. Lois Lawton— This is the profile of one of pronounced musical ability. Just by gazing at this silhouette, I can hear sweet strains of music that hold my soul entranced by the beauty and perfection of their harmonies. Behold here, the queen of the world ' s music, one who will be a famous pianist and a contralto of no mean fame. Can you not see Notwal ' s name emblazoned on the billboards of the future. Louise Sundquis t— This is an intrepid hunter, ladies and gentlemen. Notice the set of that chin, that nose, that noble brow. This is a very fine example of our modern American Flapper. This is a woman of strong mind, strong will, and stronger temper. She will become a lecturer on a strong subject— an old maid, demonstrating her independence of man. Thus at some future time shall we see her at the head of an exploring party to investigate the wilds of Africa. Having conquered all the civil- ized world, she will then attempt to extend her sway over the uncivilized parts. Margaret Stapleton — This girl is destined for a very happy future. She will find her greatest ambition in the highest of all worldly vocations —the maker and keeper of the home. I find a trace of fondness for sheep. She is somewhat woolly, so to speak. Hence it is that I can tell you with utmost confidence that she will be the wife of a rich sheep rancher. Whether this will keep her in the San Luis Valley or lead her abroad, to such famous pastures for sheep as Australia or the Argentine, I cannot tell you, but so her face betrays her destiny. Frances Bolger—Here we have a famous beauty— one who could Whethei M such fai M tell you, Vc

ve on everlasting fame and fortune in the movies, but who with a spirit characteristic of the grand old class of 1924 said, Brains, not beauty, is my motto, and who then proceeded to carry out her vow. So we shall see her in years to come as the prosperous and efficient manager of a large hotel in Liverpool. The unwary tourist is hers, the moment he comes off the gangplank or out of the hangar; and for his further enticing, this little lady will operate a curio shop, selling curios from all places of the world. She it will be who will offer humanity a chance to go around the world in twenty minutes, at Bolger ' s Bazaar in Liverpool. Robert Whitmore—Oh, my friends, what a joy it is to behold such a personage — a model young man, and a very good looking one, too. One, who by precept and example, is destined to influence greatly the world of tomorrow. He has a natural gift for foreign languages and so I foresee that eventually he will make Paris his home. There he will meet the people of all nations, and how great will be his influence. His least word and idea will be broadcasted and copyrighted throughout all the civilized world. Not as an ambassador high in political circles, not as a banker of world-wide influence, not as a scholar — but as an artist will he be known to fame. He and his wife will work together in his art. (By the way, I know that you will all be interested in knowing that his wife will be a famous beauty, noted for her stunning red hair.) Together they will influence the rest of humanity far more than statesman or scientist or student could. So in future days we shall find in this man the Paul Poiret of the future, a designer of men ' s and women ' s apparel, famous the world over. Lloyd Bergman — Eunice Evans — Here are two people whose futures are inextricably bound together. Every line of the girl ' s profile tells that she can never be happy except with this young man, no matter what the circumstances may be. And if I may venture an opinion based on my knowledge of them in high school days, he will be a much hen-pecked husband — albeit a very happy one. The lines of this face (Lloyd ' s) tell me that he will become an eminent physician at the head of a prominent hospital in one of our largest cities. His success will be due, however, to the stimulating, though strenuous companionship of his wife, who by continually keeping him guessing in his home life, will also keep him at his highest pitch of human energy in his work. Her happiness lies in bossing him, but she will also find time to become a prominent political worker and speaker. You who know her will not be surprised at this, for she has never been at a loss for words. Mabel MacDonald — This profile moves me to a feeling of sadness — I must cry, I must — this woman ' s grief overwhelms me. Sorrow will come to this poor girl — oh, how heavily. Shall we not on some distant d
