Doreen—It says ‘‘John E. Hill, Pastor of the Fairfax First Baptist Church, desires to publicly make known his great success in his field of work. On Sunday last he baptized twenty-five people in the St. Joseph River in twenty four minutes.” Floss—Some speed, Ed! Doreen—Speaking of Ed, one always thinks of Leslie Enos. They were as insepar able as the Siamese Twins. Floss--“Sa)e man, Cosmetics” Hm! Leslie selling beauty preparations! He must be about forty years old. he ought to be settled down. Oh, ouiji, is Leslie Enos married? Doreen—”N.».” Just as I thought. Even in H. S. Leslie ran around with all the girls but didn’t give a Hip for any of them. Still he used to favor Fay Halberstadt. Come, ouiji, do you know anything about her? Floss—“Fay Halberstadt is now showing great ability and doing wonderful work as a Missionary to China(e).” Doreen—Hum, she had a leaning to that in H. S. and you know that adage • As the twig is bent so is the tree inclined ” Floss—The ouiji is telling us something voluntarily. Let us read. Doreen—“I am Franklin Seaver. At present I am carrying on a work to prove that my ideas are right and that the natives of Southeastern Africa can form a Baseball League superior to any in Europe or A't erica. After completing the course of rigid training I am putting them through we shall make a tour around the world. As soon as we play the Cubs of Iceland we will come down to play the hitherto Peerless Colon League, if they will accept our challenge.” Punk was always talking League baseball in H. S. Floss—Yes, and Bill Baad was always talking Socialism. If there were ever any dis -Wes between the Democrats and Republicans, Bill never quarreled. He took his stand for Socialism. “And now” says the ouiji, “he is about to be nominated as a Socialist candidate for the Presidency of the United States. He’ll get it, too.” But beware of Debs’ fate. Doreen—Isn’t that just fine? To think he graduated from Colon. My, I’m glad to have that Pioneer that he was editor of. Now there are Mona Mae, Carl. Esther, Fay, Punk, Bill, Ed. and Leslie Enos. Who else was in our class? Floss—Let’s see; Clella Bubb, Fuzzy Decker, and - - - Doreen—And you and I. Florence—Ouiji, where’s Clella? Doreen Look, what the ouiji says. Where do you expect? Floss—I guess we all know what to expect. I suppose she married Mike. Doreen—Fuzzy, you are next. Floss—‘ Carl Decker has lately become a general.” Doreen—Does the ouiji mean a General in the Army? Florence—Of course not. A general nuisance. And as for you—what do you do? Doreen- Oh, I don’t do anything at all. What do you do? Doreen—I do anybody I can.

Class Prophecy DOREEN I). SHANE FLORENCE F. VALYER Discovered sitting in two chairs. Florence—Oh, Doreen, I have just purchased a brand new ouiji board and I’d like to try it out. Doreen—Let’s do. Florence—I’ll have it here in just a minute. Excuse me. (F. V. exits) Doreen—I wish the ouiji would tell us something of our H. S. class. It’s been twenty years since we graduated and I’d like to know what has become of the 1921 Seniors. (Enters Floss) Floss—Here it is, as shiny and nice and new as can be. Pull your chair up and we’ll see what we can get out of it. (Arrange them-elvt-s) Doreen—Ouiji, what can you tell us of the class of ’21V Florence (aside)—Do you suppose it will ever move? Doreen—Of course. See! It’s moving now. Watch it! Floss—“I can tell you all.” Doreen—First tell us what has become of Mona Mae Watson. Floss—“M. A. C. Graduate. Home Economics.” I believe that ouiji has told a story already. Why would Mona Mae want to take a course in Home Economics? Doreen—She strives to reach Ferrell’s idea of a good and economical Housewife. Floss-—Whom shall we enquire about next? Doreen—Oh, let’s try Carl Harmon. Floss—“Mr. and Mrs. R. E. Bess announeh the marriage of their daughter, Dorothy, on June 15, 193U, to Carl Harmon. To be at home to their many friends June 30 at-------------St., Ypsilanti, Mich. Doreen—What a surprise! Although ever since the time Carl invited Dorothy to the Senior party they have been rather intimate. Floss—Talking of that party reminds me that it was at Palmatier's. I wonder where Esther is and what she is doing? Doreen—“She has recently made a discovery startling to the medical world. Upon performing a marvelous operation on a human brain she has discovered that fifty per cent of insanity is caused by blood blisters on the brain. Although the patient died it was a very successful operation. With her degrees of M. D. and Ph. D. she is considered one of the medical lights of the day. Her medical work for the past thirteen years is unparalleled. More and greater results are expected from her,” Floss—That’s tine. I always thought that our salutatorian would make herself famous at some time. See, the ouiji is moving again. What does it say?
