Soon we are running a race with the clouds and the earth is like a tiny cup beneath us. Suddenly there is an explosion and the plane begins to fall. Down, down, we go, and in a few minutes my brilliant career will be ended. I feel afar and sitting up I look in astonishment around me. I am still in the familiar Senior Assembly, but I have fallen out of my desk and the other Seniors are laughing uproariously at my embarrassment. I remember now I was thinking of what awaited us in the years to come when this vision came to me in whi h the curtain of mystery has been raised and I have looked through the window of today and into the realm where lie the secrets of tin? future.
