would take too long to tell their past and present and they know that already anyhow. And I promise that they will believe everything you say. Gladys—I undeistand perfectly. Allow them to enter. (Jean and Trella leave and bring the class in. They all sit.) (Addressing the class.) I am here to raise the cur- tain of years and show you what you will be in after years, when you are no longer to- gether but will be separated.

Gladys—(Taking his hand.) Your name is Heyward Gibson. You have a strong personality, therefoie you have many friends. You will marry while quite young, but as your wife will be cruel to you, you will apply for a d'vorce in a year or two. You have high ambitions and will no doubt have a large fa: m and raise either Bull Frogs or Guinea Pigs. You will have lost all faith in womankind however and never marry again. (Heyward takes his seat and a girl comes to the table). Your name is Mary Morgan. You will make a good school teacher. English is your favorite study and you may become Miss Galbreath’s successor in the P. H. S.; that is, unless you marry some rich man and become a society butterfly. (Mary takes her seat and a boy takes her place at the table.) Your name is George Stevens. I see in your hand a long life and a great success in a political career.

(George takes his seat and a girl takes his place at the table.) Your name is Genevieve Sester. You are going to make your own way in the world.

(Genevieve's place at the table is taken by another girl). Leona—You are fond of baking and will no doubt aid some one in managing a Bakery. I see clinging to your long white apron little tots of all sizes, and you will excell as a diplomat in keeping peace in the family because your husband will naturally be quarrelsome. (Another girl takes Leona Holloway’s place at the table). Let me see. Oh, your name is Dor's Tomlinson. Doris, if you pursue your am- bitions and become a heart specialist you will be very happy as you will have many' men callers and you will have the largest practice of all your competitors. You must never marry or your practice will decrease. You will acquire a large fortune and when you are old will be content to remain at home and devote all your time to raising dogs and orphans. (A boy takes Doris’ place.) Walter Morrcw—Well Walter you are not going to live in Plymouth very long. First you will attend college and from there you will go east where you will start up in -jome kind of business. You have excellent business ability and will prove to be a successful business man. You will also attain great wealth. (A girl takes Walter’s place at the table.) Your name is Blanche Leonhard. As you have been so inclined during your TWF.NTV-KICiri
