8 Ulla Sprott, with thy contagious laugh, and Edith Sullivan, with thy gentle tread, ve, both strong of character, have a mighty work before you. Go ye not into distant lands. but seek vc nearer home. Faintly I see a building. It seems that I see this inscription upon the stone, .Knowltonis Hospital, and there I see your familiar faces as you go about your work among the suffering ones. SJ Uome nearer, my two shrinking children. Be ye not afraid of your future, although it lies among worldly things. As l peer into the distance I see the flaring lights of a great thoroughfare. In the glare I see the doorway of a great theatre, and lo, on every side l see your magnetic faces beaming at me from the bill-boards and beneath them your names, coupled together in huge black letters, thus: Simsie McMichael, the greatest soprano singer of this day, the reigning prima donnag and Lucile Byrd, the ifamous accompanist, a graduate of one of Germany's great con- servatories. 10 Mayme Green, thy future lies not in great fame, but discontent is not written upon the face that I see pictured, as I see thee seated at an old organ in a small parish church. Gccasionally thou liftest thine eyes from the note book from which thou playest, to meet the gaze of THY minister, and your voices rise in happy unison above those of the congregation. 11 Marie Bichardson, thine eyes always brighten at the sight of a little child. Thou shalt be the governess for a wealthy merchant. 172 Lo, a strange mission is thine, Antoinette Griflith. Thou hast heard of woman's rights? I behold thee standing upon a small platform, wildly gesticu- lating and loudly and earnestly declaring thy rights and those of thy fellow-women to the great multitudes surging below. I 13 Behold, thy greatest desire is to be fulfilled, Mary Belle Manning. Thou are to do chemical research work with Dr. Burney at the Carolina University. 11 Verily I say unto thee, -Sallie McCain, I can only see thee wandering up and down one long street, which seems to he Washington Street, scanning every face as if looking for a Mann. Be not discouraged if years of search reveal him not, for thou shalt find him at last and ye shall live happily together ever afterwards. 15 Buth Williams, thy dark eyes are looking at me wonderingly as if ap- pealing to me to prophesy the fulfillment of some great desire. I read thy thought and it shall be answered. In future years, after thy graduation from the Boston School of Expression, thou shalt travel much, in company with 'thy dear old teacher, Miss Ouida Foster. Large audiences are to listen with admiration and delight as ye bring to life scenes from Shakespeareps plays. 16 Kid-Senior, thy violin shall remain a staunch friend, and I distinctly hearthe strains of thy sweet-toned instrument, improved with age, as thou, Lucile Ariail, playest sympathetically for the pleasure of others. 17 I hardly recognize thy face, Kate Howard Cross, in the one I see dimly. I see thee.bending over a huge MS. in a handsome and well-filled study, toiling away to give to the world a goodly share of the abundant knowledge thou shalt have acquired by those future days. - 18 Frailty, thy name is woman. Yea, Evaret Birchmore, I see thee developed into a woman of- three hundred pounds. The only cause to be given is the worry over the perplexing question of cho0Sing between Charlie and Lewis, which shall 50
