THE EX-EM OF ’2 5 THE CLASS PROPHECY Last summer, while 1 was visiting an Indian Reservation in Montana, an old squaw, sitting at the entrance of her wigwam, asked to tell my fortune. She foretold such a happy future that J wished that I might learn the futures of all ni)' classmates. Evidently she read my mind, for she said that she would read the futures of my friends at home for the string of beads I was wearing. 1 eagerly consented and the squaw entered her wigwam. 1 began to really wonder what and where all my friends would be on this day of 1935. The squaw, as if in answer to my thoughts, reappeared and said: Joe Tilman is a great pianist for a large jazz orchestra.
