O at THE PINE BURR '27 as THE PROPHECY HE stately Leviathan was plowing its way through the star- lit waters of the Atlantic. On deck a dreamy young woman stood gazing out to seat, in the hushed silence there came to her memories of hergcommencement days, twenty years ago that night she had graduated from Centenary Academy. She turned and entered the salon' and as she paused a moment to watch the danc- ers she lost all signs of sophistication, for there was Maurice, one of her classmates of '27, directing the most famous orchestra in the world.

She surely fills the office well, toof, uBut have you heard of Florence? She has just started a con- cert tour of the United States and is still dividing her time between the piano and violin. Her audiences find it hard to decide which deserves the most praise. And one of our classmates speaks across the footlights to an entranced audience. We predicted this triumph for Jane when we saw her in Academy presentations. calf youive been in New York of course youive seen the latest portrait Hazel has painted, for everyone is talking about it. You know, of the incomparable Dr.-Dr.-anyway her name was lVIiss Smith when she taught at the Academy. Hazel is painting in Paris now. Samford is in Paris now, too.
