Kentucky. Slie had carried out her youthful dreams of raising poultry for pay, while he farmed by improved methods, and now they owned one of the most valuable plantations in Kentucky. The hours were short for the rest of the .lournej ' , and soon we were in Chicago. On our arrival at the hospital, where my partner was, imagine our surprise when we were met by Eugene Vickery ! He was expecting me, it seems, and was of cour.se delighted to find Lillian with tne. It did not take us long to tiud out that he was head surgeon in this iiospital. He told us to meet him in the office after our visit to my friend, whom he assured me would be quite able to return home with me in a week ' s time. We learned from my friend and some of the nurses we met that Dr. Vickery was one of the most eminent surgeons of the Middle West, and that he was adored equally by assistants, nurses and patients. We also learned that his engagement to his sweetheart down in Hartwell had just been announced. We were soon back in the office, and Dr. Vickery came in. ' Just a moment and I think T shall give you a surprise about equal to the one you gave me by bringing Lillian along. He went back to the ' phone in the hall. In a moment he came into the room, smiling. Oidy a short while now to wait, he said, and as we chatted of old times the moments tiew by. A door shut somewhere in the distance and we hearci a voice say, Dr. Vickery ' s private office, aD l soon we were being presented to our genial friend and classmate, Roy Vinson. It hardly seemed possible that the Class of ' 19 could be together again and meet in so unexpected a way. Roy told us that he had recently botight out Sears, Roebuck Co., and Eugene described Roy as one of tiie merchant-princes in the mail-ordei ' world. We could hardly realize it, but there ' s no counting on the things that can be done with a genial good nature and a smile that never wears oft ' . Roy insisted that we meet his interesting family and the next day the Class of ' 19 was entertained at six o ' clock dinner in his home — one of the most beautiful in Chicago. Needless to sa.y that this was a happy occasion, as unex- pected pleasures often bring more joy than those that are anticipated. The few days in Chicago were happily spent, and again we parted, this Class of ' 19, with another plea.sant memory to link to those of Our Yesterday ' s. — Senior Class Prophet.
