. H55 Immediately after that faded, a business-like building was set before me. Written in bright letters was, Thomason's Toasted Peanuts. In a moment. it all came to meg Bruce Thomason, our daring little boy in high school at Cooleemee. He had changed his position in life entirely, and became one of the wealthiest bachelors in VVashington. Before I could hardly breathe, an art studio appeared, which was occupied by a dashing young blonde, whom I soon recognized as Elcy Miller. She had become one of the world's most famous Nature painters. The next person I saw was an old friend, Tom Blackwood. I knew that he could keep good secrets very well, but never knew that he could keep one as well as this. He was the well-known football coach at Harvard! Then came a large crowd, which seemed very excited and important. They were seated in a huge auditorium. I learned that the performance that evening was to be given by one of the greatest musicians in the world. When the musician came out to play his first composition, he bowed and made a brief speech. When the first word was spoken, it sounded familiarg however, I could not see him. When the first chord was struck on the piano, I could tell by his touch that it was John Smith. He had at last found a position in life which he had always dreamed of. There came a beautiful scene, showing the tropical sun. Natives were busy, going from place to place. A little cart, drawn by four natives, was set upon the ground. Two American ladies stepped out. It seemed that they were missionaries. One was a perfect blonde, the other, a brunette. Both seemed devoted to each other. A thought came to me: Could this be two of my old classmates in Cooleemee High School P Yes, for certain, it was Ethel Ridenhour and Mildred Sedberry, two of the most brilliant students I have ever known. I knew this marvelous attraction must be coming to an end, because I had seen every one of my old classmates but two. No sooner had I wondered, when a young girl appeared-a beautiful brunette. I could hardly believe my own eyes, when Ruth Henry came out as the leading toe dancer on Broadway! The colored foot- lights flashed different colors on her, making the rhinestones on her gown shine like stars. Ruth was all smiles. When she went off the stage, the audience ap- plauded so gratefully that she gave a delightful encore, which showed at once her graceful manner and her wonderful personality. Ruth vanished so quickly that tl1e next person came a bit late. She was also a brunette, even more so than Ruth. It was Nancy Bowers! A beautiful young nurse. Nancy had been in training since she had finished high school, and had become one of the most independent nurses at Johns Hopkins Hospital. All of this had been such a marvelous thrill that I hardly knew whether to believe it or not, but the strange person must have been greater than Edison, because he said all of what I had seen was true. He had asked me never to tell where his invention was hidden, and I gave him my vow. I have been there many times since, but everything was gone, and no trace of the cave has ever been seen.
