The Sophomore Prophecy. BY LULU BEYERLEIN. One evening in September as I was sitting in my rose garden admiring the golden sunset I thought of my friend, Lucy Brown, and the days not many years ago when we were together, and when I watched tier paint just such beautiful sunsets. While I was sitting here wondering where the rest of my classmates were, who should come through the garden gate but Livonia Walker, who has now changed her name and I knew in a moment that she had just returned from her honeymoon trip to Europe. We sat down together and she told me that while in Rome she had heard Gladys Clark play on her famous violin with Helena Hardy assisting her on the piano, and that in Florence she saw Lora Simonds, known as Kube ik’s only rival and the de¬ light of European royalty. On her w ? ay back she mentioned that she had stopped in Paris and heard Gertrude Smith, the great pianist. In Hamburg, I think I remem¬ ber her saying that she met James Kirby, the proprietor of a large restaurant. Most emphatically she made known to me that Opal Martin had given her world renowned speech on Woman Suffrage. At this moment my maid brought the afternoon tea and the New York Herald which is edited by the great journalist, Lawrence McConnell. On glancing through the paper I learned to my great joy that Bessie Brassard, the star actress, was to play that evening in one of the greatest theatres there. My interest growing, I looked farther and learned that Raymond Keeler was a marked huntsman, and had just re¬ turned from the wilds of Africa. In the social news, Duwana Rasmussen was to play, the following Wednesday evening, the wedding march at a double wedding in which Beatrice Butterfield and Viola Olsen were the brides. This reminded me, thinking of marriages, that Harry Weichen and Dorothy Nelson were married and were the head teachers of our old High school. I had received a letter from Murry Wright and Hazel McConnell, who are now running a large ranch out w r est, saying that Bernice Astle was off duty from her service as a Red Cross nurse during the war with Texas, and al¬ so that Robert Crosby was the foreman on their ranch. I often wondered where Sel¬ ma Johnson and Zenaida Zahl were, but my mind was set at ease at the close of her letter, for she said that the evening before they had attended a concert which had teen conducted under the leadership of the three great musicians, Selma Johnson, Zenaida Zahl and Judith Mills. As we continued, I nearly forgot to tell my friend that Elva DuBridge had been happily married some time ago and lived not far from us. After chatting on other subjects, she left me for her own home, which was next door.
