W3 A5 :Qnuih BYPEIIIIPHI r Dim is the light in my st11dy, my work lies untouched on my table: Work that has filled 11p my day gives way to deep thought, all-consuming. Fartthrough a vista of years, I gaze to a future that's glorious, A Seeing the lives of my classmates revealed in a scene from life's drama. Twilight steals soft- through the window and outlines the gathering shadows. Making them seem as real people: my desk before me is broadened, Becoming the stage of the world upon which these people are acting. Th-ere 'midst a great throng of people, touching their hearts with her singing. Alice, the pride of her class, is performing the task that God gave he1'. Alone with his dog by a brookside, feasting on beauties of 11atu1'e, Is Walter, the dreamer,-how few knew that he was poetic! Eleanor, Opal, and Bonnie, laughing and talking together, Stand amid other young women-I see 'tis a teachers' convention. I turn from this scene to another-Discordance holds here his dominion: Jay Kent and John Wood are still wrangling-It's politics now as in old times: Now they're attended by people who listen and silently wonder: Eloquent, serious, magnetic, they sway those who listen awe-stricken. Music attracts my attention and I see that it's Carolyn. Charlotte, And Ellen, the world-famous trio! In a spot secluded from others Reis and Hickman and Bair are surrounded by heaps of 'lectric'tg! Oft were we thrown to confusion as talked they with fluent profusion Of magnetic, galvanic, voltaic ........................... telegraphy! Happy and gay just as always, Harriet, her home town's old standby, Turns from a life full of fame to answer the great call of duty, Living her life just for others: Gladys. her loved friend, is near her-- They are the center of life to the friends who know them and love them. Bishoff and Jennings together hasten toward something important: 'S great Shatlthese two should be always the same friends they were when in high sc oo - Perhaps they are partnership lawyers, or grocers. or maybe rich merchants. Pleased with the lot that's before her, Fuzzy l'that's Gladys? is happy, Giving her joy unto others, especially Maud who is with her: They've answered the g1'eat call of life and reign o'er a realm individual. Careful and shrewd, influential, Harold Stone holds in power his associates: This is the real man of business!-AWhy didn't we know.he'd find Wall Street? Erect and inspired with her subject, imparting her zeal unto others, Martha Mullican speaks for her state in our goverinm-nt's most honored Senate. From the top of her head to her toe-tips, Miss Wolverton tells us of business: Efficient, clear-headed, and learned, she's demanded where skill is most needed. Small but most mighty, our Cecil is a man--no one can deny itt-- Facing the world he defies it to show him a thing he can conquer. The scene is a suuzll country schoolhouse: here Beulah Bartholow is teaching- Love is the power that rules: thus shows the success of the teacher. Frank .Ford owns a prosperiug business, Industry calls him its ruler: Calm and secure, he's controlling the forces that work to his orde1's. Close by his side Miss Pauline, private secretary, serves and obeys him- X Oh, how they make the work fly as they bend to the task that's before theml- P Far from her home in a co1111try where people speak not i11 her language: - . Ruth Farley works for their good and tells of her work with her writing. Blessing t11e people before him who kneeling in bitter confession Ask absolution from sin, is William, a priest of the Catholics! Sweet still as she was in the old times and gay as a flower in the springtime, Jessie at last claims her own and reigns as the queen of a hearth-fire, Facing the winteris cold blast, with a heart that beats warm and most happy, Alden turns toward a home from the cares and worries of business. As wives of New York's richest bankers, Elmira and Leola-recall them? Rule as society's queens! They're happy, these dear friends of schooldays. Dear Irish eyes are a-gleaming and sweet, happy lips are a-smiling- ........-- .... ... X

Opal, allglorious and gay, is the same girl we knew when we left her, Living in full, uncomplaining-let us see him who dares to do better! Parlex-vous, francais? says our Miner -America's new French Ambassador, Speaking to Sec'y Loren whose snapping eyes gleam with rare pleasure: He is as glad as is Emmet that the one has attained such great honor. Midst a great throng of people, Clarence, the world's entertainer, . Drives away blues with this nonsense--and has a good time while he does ll. In a world that moves swiftly with business, Nellie Marquis lives and is happy- For near her and sharing her life are her schoolmates, Mamie and Lottie. Away from the world in her own realm, our artist, Miss Hazel, is living: We cannot see in her heart as she paints and dreams and sees vlslons. Argument's suddenly ended and Clyde ceases his controversy- I For, pushing her way through the crowd, comes the One Girl his heart everlfancied Where's Lois? Has she gone away? Ah, no! little housewife, you're with us: Your life, though it's quiet, is worthy: such lives keep this world of ours going. Speeding a-down a long highway, two Fords rush by like a windstorm!- Catching a glimpse of the drivers, I see that they're just Mills and Shannon. Now is the road a huge building and in it a ball game is raging: Schreiber and Fisher are there and, you bet! they are leading all players! Beulah McAdoo's queen of a home: Ruby Gideon a leader inchurch life: Both have a great part in life's drama, and apply themselves worthily to it. Uprooting great weeds with their furrows, preparing the earth for the planting, Heavilin, Bishop, and Fore are Iowa's noblest, the farmers. The scene of the drama is widened and before me is standing Bob Cochran, Bob, just a friend of all mankind, making folks glad with his singing. Advancing with ,calmest assurance, his head well poised on broad shoulders, Barker, the world-renowned singer, takes his place before a large audience. An aeroplane lights close beside me, and in it are Margery and Bertha: They have been viewing the world from Ireland to sunny Hawau. Away in the African wilds, Frank Goodman is hunting and fishing, Seeking the lion and whale!-for he would not shoot a wee rabbit. Down in the slums of a city where dirt and disease are the thickest Cleo is giving her life to lift up poor, suffering mankind. Music is sounding about me-a wedding procession is coming! - Eva is changing her name-I guess maybe she didn't like it! Evans, Dry Goods -a sign reads and I think me 'tis '22's own Bobby: He'd make a thing like that go-there's force in many a small man. Notes like the lark's in the Springtime arises the sun o'er the hilltop Spring from a piano's keys as Betty's light fingers caress them. People are listening rapt to a man who. standing before them, Speaks with simple sincerity-it's Burham, a great Y. M. worker. Nina and Jessie are talking as loving friends do when together: They in the game of life have never lost thought of each other. Friendship like theirs lives forever-and Nina is still teasing Jessie. Russel Com rides on the cavalry of America's most able army: And Theron Frank coaches athletics-no better director in gamedom.! Mary Morris is a model for artists and poses for world-famous paintings. Tressie's dark tresses attract me, but I cannot tell what she is doing. In a room where many white figures are calmly and silently moving, Holding the center of movement, John Greenman, the surgeon, is working. 'Mzdst a large group of young ladies Laverty stands and is happy- Kidding the women was always the best of an Irishman's labor. Margaret Morrison, great entertainer, helps friends to have fun and be happy. Lela Simmerman now is a nurse,-and well does her costume become her. Jean and Beth, still together, pause in their day's occupation To read, and rejoice in the reading: for one whom their girlhood loved dearly Now stirs the world with her writing-it's Ruth, just one of our classmates! Grace works with insect and plant life, for she has become a great naturalist. Dot is the' actress. and dancer the world oves and honors and calls for- Graceful is she, like a gygsy endowed with the beauties ,of nature. A low car swings in to t e curbing and out of it steps a goung fellow- Kenneth, amilllonaire banker, has time now to play and e happy! Gladys, apart from all others, silently, joyfully watches The world that revolves all about her: her eyes gleam with love for all mankind. ..... ...
