IIIASS PIIIIPHIIIY FATHER GOOSE LOOKS INTO THE FUTURE One dark and dreary night as I lay upon my little trundle bed reading Mother Goose rhymes, I grew drowsy and nodded Over the book. Just as it closed and was about to drop from my hand, I heard a voice shouting from within the pages. Let me out! Let me out! I snapped awake and opened the book to the page from which the voice seemed to be coming. To my great amazement, there stood a little man not six inches high with a long white beard, which trailed out all over the page. Hi, Son, said he. You don't know me, do you? l'm Father Goose, Old Mother Goose's husband. She keeps me shut up in the book because I can tell fortunes and see into the future. She knows that I'll be more popular than she if I ever get out. But you've let me free at last, and because you have, I'll do something for you. What do you want to know? I can answer any- thing because I can see into the future. I sat there with my mouth open in amazement, but finally having collected my wits, I said, Thank you, Old Father Goose. Yes, there is something I would like to know. I have a group of friends who are finishing high school this year, and l'd like to know what they will be doing ten years from now. Hand me the list, son, and lend me your ears, and you'II find out, said Father Goose. He pulled some brown-rimmed spectacles from under his beard, adjusted them on his thin little nose, gazed at the list and in a thin squeeky voice began to speak. Let me see, said my bearded friend, as I look into the future of these proud Seniors I see many great names and distin- guished looking people. First of all, I see that your fine class president, Bradley POPG, has achieved the limelight as the nation's number one orchestra leader. John Earl Bobbit is leading Brad's saxophone section.

Jearrie Carroll Kennedy has made millions on her new song, Baby Talk Blues. Hilda Beck and Billy Watkins have opened a very successful business. The name of it is Brains Incorporated. Donald Foster is still pitching baseball for the New York Yankees, and the catcher who has meant so much to his success is Bean-ball Ben Jones. Jimmy Casanova Becker has the lead role in a Broadway Musical entitled That Whitworth Kid. Dolores Kern has settled down on a farm with Denver Gene and they are now raising champion-ship milk cows. Bobbie Jean Allen, Jan Alford and Betty Jean Panzica have taken over the Andrew Sisters' place, and their current hit is Why Don't You Haul Off- and Love Me.

Y ul men who can you With that, the old man gave me a sharp smack across the fore- head: I waked up to find my head butting the edge of the table and Father Goose merely a dream.
