CLASS PROPHECY On the day before Graduation we Seniors were gathered in our class-room for the last time. As we lingeroa on and on. a dark, foreign-looking man entered, carrying a bulky and intricate-looking machine c Y fithout saying a word he han.ded each of us a card on which the following amazing in- formation was printed — Professor Beppo and his Wonder Machined Positively tells anj ' ’ future. Sees allj Knows allj (Senior Classes a Specialty) . Of course we wanted to know what would become of us after we left M. N., so v e eagerly besought the Professor to do his stuff.

For an instant the screen was black, but then to our eyes carae a picture of Dot Gorman holding Xr J ' u.nior on her knee while tr3ring to dress his wiggleing body — happily mar- ried ever since her day of graduation. At the end of the next picture we learned that Marplc- Newtown High School was supplied with ver ' efficient teachers as we Saw Marie Kelly, that great Latin Shark,” at M, N, teaching Caesar’s Gallic War to some bright looking Soph- omores,
