THE ENFIELD ECHO 13 Marian Ryan will be an old maid who will run a large and successful chicken farm. She will endeavor to complete the re-chickening of Europe. Irene Steele will be the wife of a multimillionaire, and will dispense charity as lavishly as she now scatters her smiles among her less for- tunate classmates. The Misses Leger and Leroux will run a jitney from Somers to Thompsonville and, we expect, will put the Hartford and Springfield Street railroad out of business. Isabel Renfrew, we see, will be a Model in The Pauline Shop, owned and run by Pauline Miller, whose reputation for stylish gowns will be unequaled in New England. Katherine Connor will be beloved by all the youth of America for a great achievement. She will succeed in incorporating ain’t in all gram- mars used in the public school system.
