But what next we ask, as now we part. And lift the future mask. The past we have seen, the present is now. But the ever curious mind says wait! At the future we must peep, just awhile. Before passing through the next gate. My first vision as I gaze on the crystal ball is that of Wm. Creightong He will be a great poet of our nation, while Kitty, his sister, will sit at the organ and set many of his verses to music. As I roll the ball I see Lockwood Crownover making a great success in the field of Dentistry. Now we have the salesman, Ellis Hamaker, still continuing in the work he started when a Senior in B. H. S. The ball brings the future of Roger Harper before usg he has given all of his energy and attention to printing. We must always have a great financier, so John Fagan is representing us on Wall Street. Ruth Jacobs is to represent us in the educational world, choosing the teaching profession as her life's Work. However, I see that Jim keeps a close touch with her over the air, since he has taken up study of radios. The ball now shows Alma Leeper, our song bird, who is making a success in the nursing profession. Yes, Matha MacElwee is traveling, and making use of her well known humor. Russell Lauver is successful as an Osteopath. Still the ball turns, as it' flashes forth these future visions, and now we see Mary Hoopes, Kathryn Mowery and Susan Miller acting as Some- body's Stenogf' We see Joe Hunter breaking many records in the Athletic world. Last but not least, the ball brings forth Paul Kanour whose one ambition has come true. He is playing in one of the world's greatest orchestras. -Ruth Pursel BECKLEY COLLEGE COURSES: ACCOUNTANCY SECRETARIAL SCIENCE BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION 8: INDUSTRIAL MANAGEMENT HARRY HAYMAN MEN' CLOTHING AND FURNISHER BUDGETARY CONTROL 8: COST ACCOUNTING ADVERTISING, SALES AND SALES MANAGING REAL ESTATE.
