0112155 Qgruplgecg Florence and Emily are conducting a private school of Domestic Arts. They seemed very much interested in their Work, but Selma confidentially told us that they intended leaving in the fall, for recently they were much more interested in two certain young men. Laura is very successful in her Work. We all enjoyed hearing about her career as a journalist. She is very popular for her latest anarchistic Writing, Is Life Worth While ? As We were all talking about the present, past and future, Weenie arrived, breathless, in her haste, from the theater. She is the leading lady in Shakespearian productions and this particular evening was playing Rosalind We are all Wondering if the leading man will be the lucky man. We were there for several days, anxiously wondering if Pugs would not arrive. It would not be natural for her to appear early, but I felt sure that she would come, if at all possible-and she did. For five years she has been traveling in Europe, Asia and every nook and corner of the globe. Her experiences were so interesting and our celebration would not have been complete Without the historian of our class. We were loathe to leave this delightful little World, but it was neces- sary for us to return to earth, but not until We had made plans for another reunion. We had some difliculty in starting our machine, but soon We were on our Way. As We were descending, suddenly it seemed the plane Was beyond control and Weqvvere falling, falling quite too rapidly. I was in a state of excitement, Evelyn was clinging to me frantically. I closed my eyes, expecting a crash at any moment-when I opened them, Evelyn was standing before me, doing her utmost to wake me and keep me from falling out of the swing. Oh, yes, I had fallen asleep on Senior Porch, Wondering what would be my prophecy. I awoke with the realization that this was Class Day and as the prophet of 1921 the future of our class had been revealed to me in a dream. B. ADELAIDE BARDO. -I.

Gila-sis qgrupigeug AN ATMOSPHERIC TRIP OF THE FUTLTRE Y first trip in an aeroplane was a real adventure. It took place in the summer of 1926. Evelyn and I were on our way from one cloud to another, curiously wondering about this new planet to which we were going. Our classmates at Mary- land College were all quite enthusiastic about this little world which was just a new project eagerly accepted by the younger generation of the twentieth century. Evelyn was glad for the vacation, after an exceedingly tiresome winter of concert tours in our large Amer- ican cities. We were invited to attend the tifth anniversary of Selma and Hall's wedding, and which would also be a reunion of our Class of '21. E235 s EQEE 2 to the Kingdom of the Dragons. We glided along swiftly After many hours of traveling through this airy path, we saw loom ahead in the distance the new world of which we had heard so much. A high wall appeared, surrounding the city. The building, of many rare and odd shapes, seemed to be outlined with a golden radiance, while the whole was flooded with a soft purple light. The plane gracefully sur- mounted the wall and in a few seconds we alighted in a park of unusual beauty. From the plane we saw, almost directly opposite, the house which Selma had described to us. Her home was beautiful, characteristic of her artistic tastes, and contained many of her own paintings of this unexplored country in which she lived. We were somewhat late in arriving, so all the guests had assembled. What an opportunity it was to meet the charming people of this cloudy kingdom and to learn about our old college friends. Now Selma is not the only married member of our class, for Ruth, Alice and Doscher have also launched on the sea of matrimonyf Selma said she had received a wireless from Doscher expressing regrets that it was impossible for John and her to come, because little John and Glenna had the measles. Ruth and Bob have been married for three years. Bob is superintending the opening of some new mines in their new kingdom, of extensive mineral wealth. As we always predicted, Ruth is an ideal housewife. It seemed as if we were again in college, as we discussed all our good times together. Alice played very cleverly a sonata for piano, with great enthusiasm, for it was Mr. Heaton's latest composition. She invited us to a tea the next day and we were all anxious to go, especially to see their studio, where they gave their instruction in piano. One llumlrcd aml Twcnly-llvrcc
