AND SURE enough THERE APPEARED on the scene SHE WHOM I'd known AS LEONA Raschka BUT WHO now most probably HAD CHANGED that name FOR THAT of another VVHO STOOD at her side AND WHO long had held FIRST PLACE in her thoughts AND THEY looked so contented I KNEW that for them THE FUTURE could hold NOTHING BUT happiness. o o o BEFORE MY gaze THERE NOW unfolded A COUNTRYSIDE. BILLOWING FIELDS OF CHOICEST grain AND BOUNDLESS pastures IN WHICH there grazed THE SLEEKEST of stock. AND EVERYWHERE PROSPERITY SHOWED. NOW THERE are two WHO HAVE ALWAYS seemed TO BE best suited FOR AGRICULTURISTS. SO I WAS not surprised TO SEE Leonard and Harold AND IT seemed that they WERE working together ON SOME new experiments OF SCIENTIFIC farming NVHICH WOULD bring to them GREAT WEALTH and fame. o o o THE DIVINATION THAT was next to come FIRST TOOK shape IN THE form of a book lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII lllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIII Illllllll IlllllllllllllIllllllllllIllllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllIllllIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllll THEN AS I watched THE COVER rose AND THE title page GREVV CLEAR to me FIRST THE name OF THE book was given AND UNDER that CAME THE author's name AND WHEN I saw that she VVAS IDA MacIver I REMEMBERED at once HER FONDNESS for English AND THE stories she wrote JUST FOR the fun of it. AND I was able to read SEVERAL PARTS of the book AND IT seemed to me TO BE something worthwhile. 0 0 o ' NOW I was shown A HUGE battleship AND IT seemed to grow BIGGER AND bigger SO THAT on the decks THE FIGURES of men WERE DISTINCTLY seen. UNTIL AT last I saw THE SAILORS and officers AND AMONG the latter WAS WALTER Miller HE WHO had always CHERISHED the wish THAT HE could become ONE OF Uncle Sam's tars. AND I was able to tell BY THE bars on his sleeve THAT HE now held the rank OF LIEUTENANT-commander 0 o o A SCENE remote FROM THAT preceding APPEARED BEFORE me. FOR IT was taken FROM A hospital ward AND IN this scene llllllllIllllllIIIlIlIlII'lIIIIIIIIIIIIIII IlIIIIIIIIIIlIlllllllllllllllllllllll Illlllllllllllll III! llll

THEN I recognized THIS PROMINENT woman AS MARIAN Paxton. AND I knew that she HAD ATTAINED success BY DEVELOPING THE talents FOR WHICH she has always BEEN KNOWN to us, AND THOSE things are DRAMATIC ABILITY AND LEADERSHIP. o o o NOW THERE flashed ON THIS MAGIC curtain THE VVHOLE front page OF A big newspaper. AND ON this page WAS THE picture of one VVHOMMI knew at once TO BE Lester Quinlan. AND BESIDE the picture VVAS A long write up ABOUT THE man XVHO HAD first succeeded IN ESTABLISHING a wireless WHERE ALWAYS before IT HAD been conceded AN IMPOSSIBILITY. AND FOR this achievement OUR GOVERNMENT awarded him A MEDAL and honors SO AGAIN I saw THAT ONE of our members HAD GAINED a place IN THE world's affairs BY DOING those things IN VVHICH he had proven MOST EFFICIENT and capable NVHILE YET undetermined IN HIS choice of career. NEXT I saw A SCENE in which A FAMOUS opera WAS BEING presented. AND A woman appeared WHOSE FAME was known FOR THEY greeted her WITH TUMULTUOUS applause AND WHEN she sang THEY VVERE fascinaed BY THE wonder of HER MATCHLESS voice. NOW IN our class THERE'S ONLY one WHO CAN sing like that. AND YOU all know her TO BE Ethel Carlson. SO YOU'LL feel no surprise WHEN I say that she XVAS THE prima donna VVHOM I saw in this TRIUMPHANT SCENE. 'I I-IE PICTURE changed. AND I saw before me ' A GROUP of men VVHO WERE excited AND WERE shaking the hand OF A MAN in the center AS THOUGH to congratulate OR ASSURE him of some UNUSUAL SUCCESS. I SAVV it was Clinton SMILING as placidly AS I remembered him ALWAYS to smile ONLY NOW in his eyes AN EXALTED light SHOWED A recent accomplishment AND THIS achievement r WAS A SUCCESSFUL invention THAT VVOULD makea new era o 0 0 IN THE world of industry. NOW I beheld A BEAUTIFUL estate VHHIH l HHN 11 IIIIIIIIII II IIIIII III I IIIIIIIIIHUIHH HHH llllllllllllllll HH III IIIIIIIII Ill llllllll HHHHlHH!!HHH!IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII VIHHHHVHHllllllllllllilllllllllll IIIII II I Illlll IHIHVH H V Hill llllll IHHHIIIIIIIIIIIII llllllllll

AS PROOF that the three HAD ACQUIRED great fame. CHINA I thought AS I beheld THE LAND in which THE NEXT scene was laid AND ON the front OF A HUGE building I READ the name OF A SCHOOL established FOR THE purpose of teaching OUR LANGUAGE and customs SO THAT the lives OF THESE poor people MIGHT BECOME happier. THEN TWO women CAME DOWN the steps AND TO my surprise THEY WERE Verva and Esther, THOSE TWO of our class, . VVHO HAD gone into the world WITH A teacher's certificate AND THEY had been chosen TO TEACH at this place BY ONE who knew THE SUPERIOR work WHICH THE position demanded. o o o A COURT-room scene WAS NOW enacted AND I saw THAT EVERY eye YVAS FASTENED upon A LAWYER whose speech XVAS SWAYING them VVITH EVERY emotion AND SOMEWAY I felt THAT HE MUST be PLEADING FOR the life OF ONE whom he knew TO BE an innocent person. THEN AS he turned TO ADDRESS the spectators I SAW that the orator VVAS 'WAYNE Nelson, WHOSE AMBITION had been TO BE a successful lawyer IIIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIIIIIllIIllIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllH1l1llIIlllIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll llll IIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIillllllllllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll I l I I Illlllllllllllllllll lllllllll Ill IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII II lllllllllll
