Prophecy for the !08s NE spring evening as I sat pensively surveying the wide expanse of buildings from the top room in the---, a fine building which I had erected and which was one hundred and eighty stories high; far off in the distance I could see an occasional airship; now and then a bird-like aeroplane glided past the window. In my office were long rows of machines which recorded into script, my words as quickly and as well as tho it had been done by hand. I could not work; the figures on the sheets appeared as dancing demons. Thus I sat in a reverie watching the deep gray shadows of evening slowly steal over the scene where my mind was resting. Soon my office boy brought me a card—‘‘Mr. Thomas Hollywood” was the only inscription. Show him in immediately,” I said, for it had been fifteen years since I had seen the worthy gentleman and that was a few years after our graduation. As he was brought in I noticed a lagging step and afterward learned he had a wooden leg. His face was covered with a sandy beard, the color of which, I had noted during our Senior year and owing to the fact that he could not raise a very heavy one then, I wondered as to its marvelous growth now. Our greetings were exchanged; his was “How are you Scrimmager?” and mine was “Fine. How are you Murph?” Well, how are all our old friends, that is the members of ’08?” I asked. Thereupon he began to relate incidents and gave me a history of our class from graduation: T'he last member of our class I saw was our worthy president. He was the living wonder and had grown a foot and a half of additional height; he is now touring the world with Beatrice Berr alias “Madame LeTrix” who is the champion strong woman, she performs such small feats of strength as whirling a hogshead of water on her index finger. Truly her strength is marvelous. Hilda Oltman had turned chemist and had discovered an element in chemistry and had called it Oltium.” The properties of this element were great and it was faintly hinted that she had shared the honors with a worthy gentleman who possibly was suitor for her heart and—pocket book, for Hilda was wealthy as a princess. I did not leam whether she married after that or not. The marriages in our class were many, I myself played the man and took a wife and never saw the equal. The two little boys Thomas Jr. and Pat bear a close
