CLASS PROPHESY OF 904. many a night have I gaze I at the «tara trying to read in their twinkling depths, the events of years to come. Many a day while walking to school, I have watched the flight of birds trying to decide by their movements the mysteries of the future. Many a time while sitting in the schoolroom I have watched my classmates, trying to imagine what changes time would bring to each one of them. One day as I was thinking of this, I imagined myself in an airship on my way hack to the dear old city of my school days. While there I visited a friend, who, having always had a great in- terest in our ambitious and prosperous class, had followed each one in his career and had saved the following clippings from newspapers: Florida Mr. Victor McCurdy will this evening give a lecture o.n the dangers of the Nicotine Habit. All are most cordially invited, especially the young men of our city. This was so encouraging that I took up the others and proceeded further with great zest. New York—The Misses Kva Montgomery and Roberta Hemmingway, last week gave one of the most elaborate balls of the season. The decorations were especially good, being under the direction of Miss Belle Rogers and Mr. Stuart Barnes. Florence A famous painting of Miss Sadie Van Doren’s will be unveiled tomorrow in the Art Gallery. Miss Van Doren has lately become famous in the eyes of the public and this will be welcome news to many. Philadelphia—Rev. Jacob Moore will hold a series of revival meetings here next week. He will be ably assisted by the city missionary, Miss Jessie Seymour. Ionia -Miss Nellie Hall has accepted the position of Latin teacher in the Ionia High school. We congratulate Miss Hall on her success in securing this position. San Francisco—Mr. James Avery’s bowling alley was last week destroyed by fire. The damage was fully covered by insurance in the Mutual Insurance Company. Ionia—Miss Lucy Panney is home on a short vacation. This young lady has held a responsible position as nurse, in New Jersey. She reports as having had for her last patient, Mr. Herbert Hall, who received a wound while acting as Lieutenant in the lT. S. infantry. Mr. Hall graduated from West Point with honors and is now entering upon a military career. Lyons Mr. Donald Barker, the professional hypnotist, will bring Mr. Vern Anderson, his seven-day sleeper, to this city during the fair. These Rip Van Winkle trances of Vern’s were noticeable in his school days. Ionia —The Messrs. Stiven Sc Ran h, grocers, will occupy the store recenti}' vacated by Pinkham Peters, milliners. It is hoped these two young men will enliven the business of our city. Chicago The Misses Sarah Derthick and Lucy Vaughn will reppen their dancing school, Friday evening. Great patience will In shown; terms will be reasonable and satisfaction will be given to all.

Miss Louisa Schmid will assist them in this work.” “Dr. Lampkin has opened his dental parlors in Belding.” Suddenly my airship grated on the sand and I once more found myself in the old school room. Many times since I tave tred to read my own future, but as all my attempts were in vain, 1 have decided to let time tell its own tale. ANNK A. CALLOW. EACH SHOULD LIVE FOR SOMETHING. Live for something, have a purpose, And that purpose keep in view; Drifting like a helpless vessel, Thou canst ne’er to life be true. Half the wrecks that strew life’s ocean, If some star had been their guide, Might have long been riding safelyq But they shifted with the tide. —Robert Whittaker.
