CLASS PROPHECY “Well, if here isn’t our Annual which we published in our Junior year in High School. Let’s sit in the arbor and look it over, Una; it certainly has been a long time since we have seen it. Look, here is our class picture, I have forgotten some of our class already; one does forget so easily when one has so many other things to occupy one’s time. Let’s see if we can remember what line of work each member of our class is following. Here are Raymond Kramer and Maurice Nugent; everyone has heard of their success as editors of the Chicago Tribune Funny Sheet; they are capable, indeed, of making the world laugh. They were amusing boys in school, always drawing pictures in our text books when they should have been listening to assignments. Yes and here is Elmer; well, I never expected it of him, but truly, you know he is a poet and a real one too. He says he obtained his start the time we were given an assignment in English on something for the Annual. He kept on and has already published a volume of his works. Adela is next. My! Talk about all the interesting things that don’t happen. I was spending a few days with a friend of mine last summer. She and I were invited out to tea; a few Victrola selections were given during the afternoon and among them was a beautiful one sung by Mile. Boeckh. Of course, I was curious to know what her first name was and inquired of a lady near me. She said Adela was her name, and with pleasure I remembered the wonderful soloist who used to be in my class at school. We immediately sought a music store after our departure from the afternoon’s enjoyment and found that her selections were so in demand that we were not fortunate in obtaining one. Here is Ben. He is a model farmer, so I was told, and is gaining a great reputation in his part of the country for his unexcelled grains. Next is Bea(trice), a graduate of Iowa University, now private secretary for Raymond Rink, who is a prominent business man in New York. She enjoys the work very much, so I last heard. Helen M., we know without a doubt, is superintendent of nurses in John Hopkins’ Hospital in Baltimore. She would never have been content unless she reached that position. They certainly appreciate her, as they have every reason to. I hope we can visit her together some time soon. And Harold! Can you guess what he is doing? I was told he is now in some branch of government work; I believe he is taking short hand notes in court. They call him the court recorder. You know he always did like to take notes, especially in English (in long hand). I wonder how many times he has to tell the witnesses and convicts ‘not to go so fast please’ or ‘wait a minute’? Helen Etterlie teaches Geometry and Algebra; she always could explain every theorem and problem. I do declare I’ve forgotten almost everything I ever knew in those subjets, however, I can t saj
