People have hinted that he 'S might be a bit cracked, but he is a scientist, t tx Professor Melbourne has always been a very ff fi , W and, having a slight scientific tendency myself, I made his acquaintance. At any rate, he burst excitedly into my room the other day with a look of amazement on his face and a queer story to tell, relating it to me iso he saidj because of my relation to the Senior class. I will retell it in his own words as nearly as I am able to recall them. I have been working for some time on a machine this story rank, a scientific machine which will weigh tendencies and conditions of environ- ment automatically and deliver as a logical result, by means of picture and sound, what the future of a person might be, a fantastic idea, but I believe it possible. I was working on the keyboard the other night, a keyboard similar to that of a typewriter. It was to form a suggestive basis for the machine to work from. QHere he grew more excitedb. I had just com- pleted it when my pliers fell from my hand! They fell with a clang against the keyboard and, before I could recover them the letters M. H. S. were sharply depressed! The screen sprang into life, became brighter and brigter until, becoming dazzled by its awful brilliancy, I threw myself into a chair and gazed at it, fascinated, unable to move! The brilliancy dimmed and I thanked my stars that it was over, even if it didn't work! But a blot became outlined on it, took shape, cleared, and there stood the figure of a man: a distinguished looking man, a bit grey around the temples. His hand was raised as if he were addressing a throng. I listened and he spoke: I, Gordon Kennedy, as President of the United States, am vastly pleas- ed that Congress has at last seen fit to reject the subsidy plan for the de- velopment of our Merchant Marine. My astonishment was boundless, but the picture faded and another took its place. This time it was of a large building. Standing in the door- way was a saintly young lady and above the door was lettered: Charity Home for the Deaf and Dumb founded by Helen Disenroth. 19-: Pictures followed each other in rapid succession. I heard the cheering of a great assemblage, hailing the world's greatest football heroes since Grange. Standing in the center of the field I could see two ,young men. I caught their names: Lynn Haynes and Leone North. Next there appeared two men in conversation, rich men: I heard a phrase: John Walter, the richest bootlegger in New York . Then there flashed upon the screen a long funeral procession and I could hear clearly the wailing of the people as they mourned the tragic end of Nor'ne Sawyer and Maxine Harkness. It seems the judge of a beauty contest could not decide between them so awarded each first place. They were both killed in the fight which followed. The next picture showed a large theatre. From inside could be heard loud applause, and outside, a sign announced the appearance of the greatest vaudeville dancers in the world, Ruth Hancock, Beatrice Scripter, Mildred Eggers, Veva Bullen and their leader, Hilda Spenny.
