THE DART, l926 'Q' V I if 'E Junior Review All of my readers, I am sure will be interested in the relating of this bewildering and amazing experience which not only revealed to me the future of my nearest classmates but even those I had almost forgotten. I had been visiting in New York for sometime and in my stay in the city I learned of the studio of a noted mystic from Russia. I finally made an ap- pointment to visit the Madame on a certain date. The moment for our consultation arrived and I entered the heavily draped studio. ,In the center of the vast room was a platform which appeared as a mass of folded silken ve'lvet. In the midst of this platform was a heavily carved white ivory chair. Back of this was a high arch hung with elaborate black velvet curtains, gorgeously embroidered in silver threads and the lights of the room seemed to come from no definite source. After I had taken my place beside the mystic globe, which was at the front of the platform, the heavy curtains slowly parted to leave way for the Madame. The gown she wore was such as to make me look again at the heavy curtains to assure myself that a part of the embroidered border was not missing. She moved very slowly and gracefully without a sound to the carved chair and without a word took her place. Mysteriously she placed one hand on the globe and then in a few mumbled tones she motioned for me to come nearer. After hesitation I moved my chair nearer where I could easily look into the globe. It took what seemed a life time before my eyes could even catch a glimpse of any familiar sight. Suddenly I saw vividly a scene which could be none other than the first class meeting of the Freshmen in the fall of 1923. Such a green bunch I have never witnessed before nor since. Amid confusion and competition they were able to elect the Freshman class officers. Frank Hayes was chosen President: Edith Wadell, Vice-President: Grace Parker, Secretaryg and Robert Miller, Treasurer. In the mystic globe I could easily see the various activities of the year full of pep and enthusiasm. The glass became blurred, but after my eyes had become adjusted I saw a throng of people ascending the stairs of Hinton High in eager anticipation for they were the new mid-year Freshmen who had succeeded in reaching the heights sublime. Again I see the Freshman Class but much larger with its new addition. Many moments passed until the globe became clear again and I could see plainly this throng of students again in the halls of Hinton High, but now they were in a new role. They had reached the realms of Sophomoredom. This year appeared as a year full of many joys and anticipations. Clarence' Hall was bestowed with the honor of President with an efficient Vice-President, Reba Bess and Secretary, Grace Parker. Now I saw plainly a revelation and reminiscent view of the peppy parties and never to be forgotten good times, and the careful advise given by our class advisors, Miss VVilson and Mr. Mason Mann, whom we all loved so well. I looked into the globe again and beheld my friends as Juniors assembled in a large hall electing their class officers, which were, Clinton MeNeer, Presidentg Robert Goff, Vice- Presidentg Donald Meadows, Secretaryg and Christine Miller, Treasurer. Their advisors being Miss O'Brien, Mr. Cyrus Mann and Miss Adams. The next vision which was revealed to me was the many parties held during the vear, the most outstanding one being a very formal affair where the Juniors were acting as hosts and hostesses to the Seniors at a dinner party given at the McCree1'y Hotel of Hinton. I could see that their Junior year was a crowning success in every way. I leaned back in my chair and closed my eyes so as to rest before the Madame and her mystic instrument would reveal more to me of the year which I was to pass through as a Senior. The Madame's voice awoke me from my rest and I drew my chair still closer and peered down into the future. The class was the best that the school had ever known. In activities it ranked superior with several of its members winners of various honors that had been bestowed during the year. The Senior play had been an even greater success than any year previous. The Seniors had supported the Glee Club, Dramatic Club, Football, Basketball, French and Latin Clubs and every other activity. In the procession of graduates I saw every member of our class receiving their certificate of knowledge. This seemed an astounding future but when I looked again, all was blurred and I was left to myself, to rally and return to Hinton to help fulfill this Paradise that is to be. Did I hear some one say Apple-Sauce ? VVell, I don't care for the' Juniors are going to show you that it is not all mystical! NELL MEADOWS CHRISTINE MILLER MILDRED NIURRELL Page Tfwenty-eight
