Good-bye, Father Learning and dear old Fultonia, Trust us to keep our keys bright, promised the happy band as the Iliplonia Ifxpress steamed away toward Seottonia. -Marian Sanzenbaeker and Herbert Bissell. Via Radio-Prophecy of Room Twenty Are you going to Dan Taylors home this afternoon? I hear he has finally finished his invention and intends to have a reunion of all our elassinatesf' said Mildred Benhoff. Fulton's new kindergarten assistant. Yes, answered Martha J. Adams, Ubut what I am wondering is how he ean have them all. There are only a few of us in Toledo. He has told no one about this invention and I 1-an hardly wait. I think this ont-e, all the pupils of Room Twenty will be on time. Well. good-bye until later. I must go down to the Auditorium now and rehearse that oreliestraf' tAfter twenty 5-ears of hard labor. Martha had at last beeome the leader of the Fulton Sehool Ort-hestra.l Mui-h to their surprise. the girls found only four of their old st-hool friendf, present when they arrived at Dan's that afternoon after sr-hool. I thought the whole elass was to be here. said Robert Dohn. the newly appointed Serviee Direetor of Toledo. This is all that are left in Toledo.

As they entered the laboratory they saw a few i-hairs and a eoinplii-ated apparatus on a large table. It eonsisted mostly of wires and a large phonograph horn. Over the mouth of which extended a white movie st-reen. The horn was attaehed to a large box eontaining rows and rows of switehboard keys. I have not perfeeted the appearanee of it yet. but I think it will furnish us with a little entertainment. Be seated, please. First, I will explain the name. It is ealled radio beeause it 'tunes in' the same as any radio, but unlike other machines it also produees on the sereen the image of the seene desired. In other words it is a radio and movie eombined. Now let's proeeed with the program. I promised you a elass reunion. Here it begins. Lower the shades, Robert, and help me here. Speeehless with astonishment, everyone obeyed. The program opened with the California Symphony Orr-hestra. The pieture flashed on the sereen as in any other movie, but the notes of the wonderful eon- eert also eame through the sereen, and flooded the room. The leader turned around to bow to the audienee at the end of the seler-tion. Why it's Herbert Bissell, gasped Martha. The seene shifted and a tall, slender lady dressed in erimson velvet trimmed in ermine eame upon the stage. She began to sing and as her voiee rose higher and higher every one realized it was Irene Klivans, reaehing her famous silvery high tones. Ta 1' n t y-Nz ree
