The Vision of the Seer Father Time leaned on his scythe; His eyes were closed and he seemed idle, But through his fertile brain a dream was passing. He saw a group of youths and maidens, He dreamed of their great future. The reward of years of study, Some would go out to become doctors, lawyers, and great business men; Others to become expert stenographers, private secretaries and ac¬ countants. Would the vision of this seer develop? Father Time stirred and swung his scythe through the years of time. He rested again, leaning on his scythe, And saw a great world before him. He discerned, passing to-and-fro in the whirl of life, The alumni of the Class of Twenty-Eight. The doctors, rushing through their calls, to and from their offices; Lawyers, in courts of great cities, Pleading their cases are smiling at the futile arguments of their op¬ ponents; The great business men, dictating to their stenographers, in their Wall Street offices; Private secretaries ushering the accountants Into the large, well furnished offices of their employers. A satisfied smile crossed the face of the Dictator of Time— His dream had conic true. —Paul Graham. T wenty-Nine 4
