PROPHECY—Continued In the large City Hospital of Hopewell, I saw Katherine Daniels, the head nurse, Evelyn Morris and Edna Lazenby, senior nurses and Wanda Mitchell, the office girl to the famous Doctor Lyman Newman. Next I saw the office of a big corporation in which Annie Morris, a most efficient secretary, was going quietly about her work. John Morris, the great contractor, was at that moment entering the office. In a Southern college, I saw Saiad Ameen, who was driv¬ ing a successor to the “Kampus Kar.” On the stage of the same college I saw Henry Holloway giving a daring imper¬ sonation of A1 Jolson. On the campus appeared Willie Ward Temple, who was a teacher of History, and Jennie Wheeler, a teacher of French and vocal. The colorful lights of Broadway flashed the names of the two Sanderson sisters, Lois and Alise, who were giving a special performance in a large theatre. Down among the mountains of Virginia, Gladys Dorset was in charge of the Commercial Department of a girls’ school, “Robin Adair.” In a little brick courthouse in Prince George County I saw George Gilliam and John Zak discussing the latest news. They are the proud owners of two of the best farms in Virginia. Not far from the courthouse there was a large dairy farm owned by William Heretick. I saw Caroline Poole and Helen Leigh gossiping over the fence which separated the property of these two happily married girls. How like our former high school days! Putting down the cup, I left the table and dazedly made my way to the street, where I paused and gazed around. Gradually the streets assumed a more familiar aspect as I recalled the haunts of my school days. —Virginia Overstreet. —9—
