JFarnltg It was some time before the stars would aid in telling us anything about Miss Emma E. Snyder. Finally a propitious moment arrived and the professor caught a clear glimpse of the heavens and through the sign of the Zodiac Saggitarius he noticed a very religious atmosphere. This is characteristic of the ninth house of the heavenly bodies and those born in September are known to have a quiet, modest, and religious disposition. Professor Johann Von Hindenkrug told us that Miss Snyder graduated from the Cambridge High School and after that from the State Normal at Kearney, Nebraska. No sooner had she finished than she found out that it was her religious duty to come to the Osceola High School and stay with us always. The professor found it rather easy to pry into the life history of Miss Nellie M. Simpson. She was born in the fourth sign of the Zodiac or the fourth house of the heavenly bodies. People born in this sign have many relatives, therefore, they have patience enough for a whole neighborhood, and always make excellent wives. Miss Simpson graduated from the Auburn High School and a few years later from the State Normal at Peru, Nebraska. We have every reason to be glad that she was directed by her star to the Osceola High School. She has been with us for several years and under her tutelage the girls have learned that it is just as refined and womanly to usa soap in the house as to sell soap over the counter. We are sure that the girls of O. H. S., 1915, are destined to become excellent housewives because of her instruction. By this time there was some danger that the professor would suffer a total eclipse. However, we reminded him of the large fee we had paid him and also the fact that we would soon be through. He reviewed to us that Miss Elizabeth B. Collings was born in the sign of the Zodiac Scorpion, which is the eighth house of the heavenly bodies. Few of the people born in this sign ever get out of the world alive. Her star revealed that she graduated from the Beaver City High School and after that from the State Normal at Peru, Nebraska. The professor closed his eyes to the stars for a moment and evoked the Muse to fly over him. As she flew over him he plucked a feather from her wing and wrote: “Miss Collings will some day be a great musician. She will sing her way into the heart of some young man, and the school room will hold her no more.” The embers in the professor’s grate were slowly dying away, now a sparkle, a sizz, a small ray of light, and the professor reminded us that his work was nearly finished for he had exhausted all he knew of astronomy, astrology, necronomy, analytier, and Calculus. Ha had just strength enough left to tell us that Miss Lou Walker belonged to the tenth house of the heavenly bodies, which is the house of dignities. Miss Walker graduated from the Cedar Bluffs High School and than attended the P'remont Normal for one summer. Her guiding star told her that she must hie herself away to the University of Nebraska and there with ruffled brow and knitted forehead work her way through the Univarsity. “Work and Win,” was her motto there, and we are told, is also her motto as a teacher in the Osceola High School. Suddenly there was a great crash, the heavenly bodies ware all dissolved. and Professor Johann Von Hin lenkrug vanished from our midst, but he had told us the story of our faculty and for that we remain grateful to him.
