T H E ALARM 1923 23 Junior Prophecy ME years after I had graduated from M. H. S., I had a vacation during le months of September and October. 1 his seemed the opportune time find out what had become of those of the class of ’24, so I tucked in ly shoe strings and started on my journey. I stopped at Chicago to see some interesting sights, and became especially interested in the Bohemian quarters. Everybody there was wild over an artist named Noscaasi Yorel. You could have knocked me over with a load of bricks when I shook hands with LeRoy Isaacson. He recognized me, saw my questioning expression and, in a few moments, amid the din, explained, My name was my first obstacle in my becoming an artist, so I just spelled it backward, see? Furthermore, I’m a type of blond Russian,” he laughed, “Phychology explains it. You’ve got to create interest— my work didn’t do it, so I did. Now my pictures create a sensation.” '1'he next day I was passing through the truck farm district just out of the city, when a young man in a flivver stopped, raised his hat, and said, “I beg your pardon, do you want a ride? I am going only a short distance down the road but should be glad to accommodate you... Cantering Centipedes!”, he exclaimed, as I raised my head, “you must come home to dinner and meet my wife.” Mrs. Mervin Glafka surely was a fine hostess. After dinner they jointly told me how she had been a dancer, refused all offers, such as dancers get, and married Mervin, “because,” as she said, “1 want my husband all to myself.” I arrived at Manlius the next evening on the seven o’clock flyer. As there was no train to New Bedford until the next noon, I stayed at the Manlius Hotel over night. Countess Lucile Gish Spagetti and Count Spagetti were running the hotel. We talked of school days and school mates until the early hours of the morning. Lester, it seems, was a professor of Meteorology in an eastern university. Shortly after his graduation a meteor hit him and set him to thinking. Hazel was a clerk in a large establishment on Fifth Avenue, New York. It was run by a Frenchman who would employ French clerks only. Hazel had found herself almost stranded in New York, so she went seeking a position at this establishment. Because of her black hair, short stature, and fluent use of French, the proprietor never suspected her of being an American. She says she learned all of her French at M. H. S„ too. Jack had a three thousand acre ranch in Montana. It was stocked with a special line of lavendar cattle, which were very susceptible to the cold. He was experimenting with grafting ostrich feathers on them for protection from the blizzards. Viva Pierson was a well known novelist. Her most famous book was “Shakespeare’s Romance,” an insight into Shakespeare’s private life. Now she is greatly in demand, by colleges, to lecture on Shakespeare.
