Class Prophecy TIME: June 9, 1942. PLACE: Small Village in the Ozarks. CHARACTERS: lvwlan Johnson Seekin refu e from crowds and cares. lDan Warner g g One lovely day in early June Vivian johnson was strolling through a pasture near town, and warding off the sun's rays by a brilliant scarlet parasol. This was a bit irritable to an amicable looking bovine creature who was sudden- ly possessed with a desire to investigate the thing. Vivian, comfortable and contented looking, uttered a shriek and fled for the fence, the animal after her. A man of quiet dignity upon a like stroll rushed to her rescue. A few minutes later the two were safely over the fence and were recovering their breath and dignity under a giant tree. Why-why-Dan Warner, how'd you get here? gasped out the ruffled spinster. Astonishing, but true, the knight to the rescue was Daniel Warner. Commonplace greetings were exchanged and then: Dan Warner: We graduated from High School twenty years ago today. Seems funny, ever hear from any of the others? Laurine Allen is my secretary: we have headquarters in Boston. You see, I'm president of the National Coast to Coast Railway. Margaret Knowles, my wife, has been the one who helped me to success. What do you do?,' Vivian johnson: L'I'm just Clare Thomas' private secretary. He lives in Buenos Aires because of his large interests in South America. Gladys Humm his wife, is a society leader there. Saw Charles Topping, Charles Chaplin II, down there recently. He plays in person and surely scored a hit. Told me that Noel Jamison and Ruth Goff are married, Noel is an Idaho doctor. Robert Newman and wife Harriet Brady with his secretary, Miriam Malsbury, were in the city for a brief visit. Bob is a New York broker. Dan Warner: Had a letter from William Poley, who is in the hardware business at Oshkosh, Wisconsin. Nora Cordingly is his stenographer. Lola Mae Gossard and Helen Steuert are secretaries for Robert Spurgeon who is the United States Ambassador to England. Ruth Atnip, his wife, is a favorite in London society. Marjorie Harrison and Elizabeth Mortimer are traveling around the world with their husbands, Charles Hopkins and Clifford Fritchle, who are doctors in Detroit. Did you get to hear Margaret Osborne when she was in New York? Vivian johnson: Yes, she is truly a marvelous pianist and people surely realize it. Then there's Robert Ormes, the greatest novelist, who sometimes writes under the pen name of Humpty-Dumpty, and Edwin McCaughey, the renowned physicist who is aiding the world wonderfully by his scientific dis- coveries. Ruth Vermillion is President of Bryn Mawr. George Shivers was a Richmond doctor, now he is a United States Senator from Virginia. Dan Warner: Yes, and Genevieve Huber is a great emotional actress who plays only to Paris, New York and London audiences, Frank Strachan is ranked as an equal to Walter Hampden in his portrayals of Shakespeare. I daresay you have seen Burdine Ecke and Malcolm Putty on the screen very often. Their pictures are always favorites, and contain no slapstick action either. Vivian Broadbent lives happily with Albert Brown on a Colorado ranch. Oh! I saw in the London Times last week that Arthur Weiss was accomplishing wonderful work among the cannibal tribes of the South Seas whom he has undertaken to reform. 12

Edwin Daily was captain of our ship. His wife, Maude Broyles, was in New York at the time. He told me that Mary Fraser and Audrey Edwards were working in Buenos Aires some- where. I heard Walter Peyser's famous orchestra at the New York Metro- politan Opera House. I noticed that Helen Killeen was being advertised in a moving picture show. Alice Shay and Juanita Smith passed me on the street without even recognizing me. I was in a hurry or I would have stopped them. Have you ever met any old classmates on your visits to the coast? Dan Warner: Why yes, you remember Jack Milliken, he and Robert Sheff own a large men's clothing store in Los Angeles. Gertrude Brewington, Reynold Bernhardt, and Charles Brice are all doing novice work in Hollywood. Kenneth Davidson is in the slapstick comedies with Ogden Loub. Kenneth is married to Pearl Shook.

Isabelle Postleth- waite and Alice Cole have a school for the welfare of young girls in Los Angeles. Alice is married to james Lester. Jeanette Heckman and Katherine Sutton left for the Hawaiian Islands to teach the natives cultured dancing. It seems as if I meet an old classmate every time I take a trip.

Vivian johnson: Dan, Dan, here you are againg we surely do meet in unexpected places. Isn't this a wonderful aeroplane-and it's operated by radio. It's marvelous of George Dunning to have invented such a thing. He owns a big plant, where he manufactures these planes, in Washington. William Nassour is his head mechanic, and Maurice Mosely and Otha Strain are two of his pilots. Oh, by the way, George uses nothing but Gardner hammers in 14
