Alarm Junior Class Prophecy The following is a part of a letter written by Mazie Monson to Doris Peterson. It is headed— Manlius, Illinois, July 30, 1932. 1AM ENJOYING my vacation so much this year. My parents have the coziest home here, and I have the best time. I regret one thing and that is, I can’t stay here all the time. I am going back to the University of Chicago this fall. It doesn t seem possible that it is my fourth year, but 1 am glad that it is. The other evening when I went down after the mail I met Lila (Hartz) Dabler. She was just as happy and as giggly as ever. She and William have taken charge of the Dabler Dabler hardware store. She told me about some of our old classmates. Ruth Styer is attending Vassar. I never thought she would go to school where there were no men but she is remaining true to George and waiting for him to make his fortune. Milton Edlefson is in Hollywood where he is playing under the name of Milton Mills. George bought a ranch out West, just as he always said he would. His health failed him because he worried so much about making his fortune. Cecil, you remember, went to New York City to study dramatics. But her voice failed her so she was forced to change her occupation. Now she is in charge of a home for stray cats on Wall Street. Harry and Walter are gypsies. They set out, just after they graduated from High School, for Texas and they liked the life so well that they decided to keep on going. Harry tells fortunes and Walter trades horses. Oliver went overseas to fight and he is a real hero. June couldn’t stand to see him go so she joined the Red Cross, and is now a nurse in a hospital in China. Rather nice, 'eh? Do you know what Opal is doing? The editor of the “Pathfinder made a special trip out here to ask her to take charge of the Question Box. He said that he had heard so much about her unlimited knowledge. Manlius is certainly proud of her. I expected to see you this summer but I heard you were working in the furniture department of Sears Roebuck Co., learning the trade, I suppose. —M. J. M„ ’28 Page Twenty-three
