He asked me to lunch with him at his home and having nothing else to occupy my mind, or rather my stomach, I accepted. Sappo was an inventor and scientist and was very en- thusiastic about his latest invention, UThe Elixir of Truth Powdern, which he expleined when sprayed on an endividual would make him tell the truth concerning anything asked him. I immediately thought of the Senior Class of Chili and hit- vpon a plan that would necessitate his cooperation. He was to permit me to spray this powder on him and then I would ask about each member of the class and see what they will be ten years from this day. He agreed, and after performing the necessary operation and arrangements, I hurried into my act because the effects of the powder might soon wear off.
