MORAL CLASS PROPHECY I was sitting near a window In a cottage by the sea, nd much to my wonder This prophecy came to me. A l was partaking of a vision Of the class of twenty-four: he class I cared for mostly, And one whom all adore. T I was attending a class reunion In the spring of thirty-three, And there each member of the class I did so plainly see. Again, I looked from the window, And a bird came tiying' byg 'Tis this it seemed to tell me, XYhile on its journey high. Donald will be a lawyer Qi' fame and great renowng Arthur will be a mechanic In a very famous town. Thelma will be teaching Mathematics in the state of Ten- IICSSCCQ Lenore will be keeping house. So the birdie said to me. Roy will be the principal In the dear old Moral Hi Dorothy will be violinist In an orchestra near by. sh 9 john will be in a bakery llaking cakes and pics: And Margaret will be selli To each one passing by. ng them Noble will be a physician In a nearby town 3 Charles will be a minister Known the world around. just then the birdie left me, And my vision fading grew, But the blessing remained with me ever, Bringing precious joys anew. XYhile I sat there musing The clock struck the hour for work, And with my duties ever ready- A nurse has no time to shirk. Up I spring to duty, And let the vision passg llut still I held sweet memories Of that dear old Senior Class. -1-1 9 24-1- Page twenty-four
