ePllQ'C:2D'VVL13 ll:-.. l?'?D'll'?Q Prophecy of the Class of '17 HE other day while walking along the street I purchased a paper, which stated that Harold Garry had won success as a General in a campaign against Germany. I happened to be passing the office of Arthur E. Becker, Attorney at law, so stepped in to tell him of Harold's success. lt was nearly time for the Presidential election and our talk turned into that channel. The nominee for the Women's League ticket was lllildred Bard. A few months after the elec- tion I was sorry to hear that lVIildred was defeated. Today I was in the city of Royalton to attend a great circus. At ten in the morning the parade formed and at its head was a Suffragette party. It was very easy for me to recognize their leader as Marguerite Scanlon. Her two banner bearers were Fern Peterson and Eva Town. Following the Suffragette parade came a steam pipe organ, played by Ruth Terrio. After dinner I made my way to the tents. Near the main entrance was a small man with a great voice and Ottomar was doing all he could to draw a crowd. In front of one of the tents a tall gypsy bumped up against me. When he turned to apolzgize, I saw that it was Frank Golden. He invited me into his tent to have my fortune told. He led me into a tent occupied by Frida Herbert, the Gypsy Fortune Teller with Marjorie Moore as her assistant. I entered the animal tents and came face to face with Fern and jim who were watching Ada Peterson feed a cage of Monkeys. Hearing the sweet strains of a violin I saw Earl Brownlea in a box with some dangerous snakes, which he had com- pletely charmed with his music. At a little side show I discovered Richard Gehrke playing on a bagpipe. Near him was a large man with a pompadour. He was doing stunts with large weights hopelessly entangled in his mammoth pompadour. This was Edward jahsman. It came time to enter the main tent, where I secured a seat in the back row, which was about fifteen feet above the ground. Coming toward me I saw Uncle Sam and his wife. They were very tall reaching as high as the seats in the top row. I recognized them as Nels Beck and Helen Ritchie. ' The performance began and several beautiful horses entered the rings and were skillfully managed by Tebo. Between acts a small gaily dressed lady entertained the crowd by showing them the very latest fancy steps. Soon a small, dark man came along, pushing a little cart loaded with popcorn and chewing gum. As he came nearer I saw it was none other than Howard. As I passed back through the tent I was statled by a shrill squeal. Looking around I saw Nellie Devine. Being hungry I began to look for a lunch counter and soon found one managed by Amanda and Eleanor. I could not stay for the evening performance, so returned to lVIanawa by way of the Royalton, Symco Limited, which was owned and operated by Arthur Vaughan, and which had as its terminal Nora Hermann's home, this being the place where all roads lead according to Arthur's opinion.
