Carl would act as errand boy from which position he would rise to that of Cartoonist for the Chicago Record Herald. Marie Wood learned that she would teach German in Grandview High School and Mary Lodge, who had vain hopes of being a Latin teacher, was disappointed when the Sibyl said she would stay home, wash the family dishes, hem the family tea-towels, and trim the family hats. Jean Brown showed that she was highly pleased when the Sibyl said wearily (for she was nearly exausted), “You will marry and live happily ever after.” But Myrle Rahel had the crowning triumph when the Sibyl said with a far-away look in her melancholy eyes, You will study music in Berlin and the world will recognize you as a second Patti. Your voice will charm multitudes and your fame shall never die.” Stanley Wallage had his hopes strengthened when the Sibyl assured him that he would be a senator and that he would have the floor most of the time. Walter Bond, our sanctified president, tried to be joyful when the Sibyl .--aid witii an approving giance at hjs earnest countenance. “The ministry will receive you with open arms.” Roy Hording and Robert Scott were delighted to know that tney would be neighbors in the sunny Southland. Robert as a real estate agent would sell countless acres of the Miss- issippi River to the verdant Northerners and the illustrious Horning would lx? engaged in the noble art of protecting his water-melons from the ravages of the darkies. Last, but not least. Waldo Sudduth took his stand before the Sibyl and was relieved to hear that he would sink to the position of “living skeleton at Barnum and Bailey’s. And now as twilight gathered, we departed with differ- ent sensations of triumph, discouragement, disgust, hope and despair. Those, to whom the Sibyl had told a happy future, were exulting over their less fortunate companions and openly expressed their sincere belief in the Sibyl’s words, while those unhappy creatures, whose ambitions would never lx realized were vowing to overcome fate.
