THE FABRICATOR 1934 CLASS PROPHECY The Time— June, 1954. The Place — Madame Fenton ' s Tent on the lot of the Kuwaski Assorted Freak Show. The Characters — Madame Fenton, Sorceress Supreme and Bubbles Reynolds, Trapeze Artist (better known as the man on the flying trapeze) . Enter — Madame F. and Bubbles, engaged in conversation. Bubbles — Do you realize, Madame, that today is the 20th anniversary of our graduation from dear old Textile School. Madame F. — Yes Philip — er pardon me — Bubbles, I do realize it and it has also occured to me that it wouldn ' t be a bad idea to check up on the old gang and see what they ' re doing. So if you ' re interested, stick around while I gaze into the crystal and we shall see what ' s what. Bubbles — A splendid idea Madame, let ' s go. Madame F. — Quiet please. Ah, the mist disappears, the cloak of mystery is unfolding. I see Mift Ashley. Milt has devoted his life in an attempt to cross a Ford with a Chevrolet and still not merge their personalities. There ' s Moody Axtell, why he ' s receiving the Michael Prize, awarded him by the American Society of Science in honor of his recently published thesis on Two Million and One Ways of Thumbing the Fairhaven Bridge . Lillian Bosse has taken C. F. Wing ' s up on their slogan, We Furnish Homes — they ' re doing nicely thank you. Why there ' s Warren Brand ; I see him as the chief instigator of a world-wide crusade against all barbers using Jeris — that sweet smelling hair tonic. Now I see Frank Cleveland, he has developed into a socialistic roustabout and ringer of door-bells due to his having been thwarted in an attempt to bomb the Empire State Building. Shoczolek, Boehler and Wilkinson, fellow conspirators, are making elaborate plans to destroy the Animal Kingdom, starting with Kuwaski ' s show. Bubbles — That ' s too bad about my old pal Cleveland, but tell me did Jimmie Davies remain a bachelor as he said he would. Madame F. — No Jimmie did not remain a bachelor. I see him now living on Locust street and he is the proud author of How to be Right Though Married . I see both Ed Dupre and Ed Murphy sharing honors as head research chemists in a special laboratory at St. Luke ' s Hospital. Norman Edmonson has finally taken that much delayed and much talked about trip to New York. He will continue on to Washington where he is to (ill the newly created cabinet position as Secretary of Chemical Af- fairs. Why there ' s the class Wimpy, you remember, Irving Frost. lie lias invented a machine that turns out hamburger sandwiches complete. ' I ' h is machine has thrown hundreds of men out of work and Ray Beau- vais, who has developed into a Communist, is now planning to bomb Frost ' s residence on thai account. 28
