PROPHECY As I entered the Gates of Bagdad, I recalled how some ten years ago I had graduated from high school in Bowling Green, Missouri. Mis- souri seemed far away now. I had heard that a few of my former class- mates had come to Bagdad when the tyrant queen, Mattie Qwhobythe way was my former classmate Martha Turpinj had overtaken their homeland. Now where was I? ---- Oh, Yes, entering the gates of the city. As I entered the gates, 1 glanced at the guards and who should I see but two old classmates ,Maurice Gamm and HarryHenrichsen. I talked to them about their families and friends and then proceeded on my way. As I turned into the market place, Inoticed a lovely maiden who looked fami- liar. I went to her market booth and as I approached it, I realized that she was Pat Quade, another of my former classmates. I bought some merchandise from her, then continued on my way. The sun was getting high in the sky sol stopped at a small cafe for a little refreshment. There Inoticed the dancing girls , who were also four former classmates , Kathleen Taylor, Charlotte Pollard, Elizabeth Sprinkle , and Peggy Syrkel. They were entertaining the Prince of Bagdad and I didn't seem important enough to interrupt them at the present time. Ithen seated myself at the nearest table and soon a young lady I had known as Deedie Gayhart came to wait on me. As she left I remembered an article in the CURRYVILLE PRESS about Mr. and Mrs. Charles Reading going to Bagdad. As I started to partake of my meal, I felt a slight jostle and then grabbed the hands of the sly winch who was trying to relieve me of my purse. Why, Retta Wilkins , I cried when I saw my thief. Oh, I am sorry, she said, I didn't recognize you. I came to find out that she had had a hard life since her brother had disinherited her in his will and she had had to steal for a living. I gave her a few pieces of silver and then started again on my way. As I tried to leave, the host of this fine establishment started my way and then I recognized him as Murray England who now was known as Ali Ben Haga, but he said for me to keep his idenity a secret because ofthe consequences if it was to be found out that he was an American citizen. As Ijourneyed down the street I no- ticed a fortune-teller's booth and since I am a mystice person I pro- ceeded to have my fortune told. The lady CMadame Zena, was none oth- er than Wanda Moore and her two lovely assistants were Norma Ruther- ford and Carolyn Turner. As my past is bad and my future less prom- ising I shall not disclose my fortune, but continue on my journey. I proceeded to the show of the Emir who was known as Billy Bob Bouyea. His show was outstanding and very entertaining. His dancing girls were: Jean McPike, Peggy Chamberlain, .Io Anne Fitzsimmons, and Helen Caldwell. The next act I beheld was that of an Egyptian sword- swallower, Billy Feather, in person. I went back-stage after the show and asked Billy about his profession and he said it wasn't dangerous -----just ticklish. I tried to leave, but to my surprise I found that you were to pay 15 dunars when you entered and since I had not, I could not leave because the big man who blocked my path was the official-bouncer, Emmett Goodin. All my classmates have surely come to Bagdad. As I proceeded down the market street after paying my fee , I noticed Wilmer Wendel who was now a snake charmer. He had quite a large crowd watching him, and in it I noticed two former classmates , Jimmy Clausen This page sponsored by: Harlinger and Son Appliances
