CLASS PROPHESY In the year 1925 I visited Clara and Angela Barney of the class of '22, on their extensive sheep ranch in Montana, willed to them, by an uncle long deceased. It was natural, of course, that they carried on their work according to the sage advice of their uncle, through the Ouija Board. And finding it such a useful article in choosing stock and hiring hands, our faith in its powers was so great that we immediately prepared to locate the other members of the cllass of '22 and learn their respective occupations. The conversation was something like this: Angela: “Oh Ouija, please tell us of the class of ’22. Hurry, too, because its almost time for lunch.” Clara: “Uncle is always slow and he gets stubborn if you try to hurry him.” Then I said, “Ouija, where is Stella Bunders? She used to sit beside me in Study Hall.” At last Ouija got started and went straight through the class- Uncle was the spirit medium. Ouija: “Stella Bunders is located with the Mayo Bros, at Rochester, and is a graduate surgical nurse. “Russel Allen is professor of Mathematics at Harvard, and although it is odd indeed, Vivian Hintz is married to Senoi Valturnos of Chihuahua, he is an ex-Bandit and proprietor of the Cash and Carry Casino, and poor Vivian has her hands full. “Ben Budworth is President of the “Budworth Gum Co.” which he established himself, though he is soon to retire to his farm rn Grant County. “Clarence Foley has aspired to the high position of Section Boss of the C. B. Q. His friend Robert Schweiger is head of the Schweiger Ice and Fool Co. “Fay Titus, due to her extreme suffragist views, is serving a term in prison, and Theresa Valant, ever faithful, is keeping her company. Sylvia Konichek and Vernie Pellock have opened a Modiste shop on 5th Avenue where only the exclusive styles are shown- “In a cottage on the beach at Waikaiki we. find Vernie Copper and Bea Eggers. Vernie is an author of some note and Bea illustrates her stories Their latest joint production is entitled. Starving on Sandwich Island.” Thomas Cahalan is professor of Latin and French at Campion College and Hazel Stuart and Gladys Pulda are teaching History and Commercial Subjects respectively at P. D. C. High School- “Skidoo” and “Layt” of High School fame have added their names to the list of performers with Sells Floto circus. They are now considered the biggest jokes in the business. When the circus is in winter quarters, Mr. Ray is a personal manager of his beauty parlor in New York, while Mr- Tichenor owns a haberdashery in the same city. “Lela Wetzel is happily wed and living in P. D. C., and Marie Andrews is a surgeon at the New Sanitarium. “The position as Prima Donna of the Chicago Opera Co., formerly held by Mary Garden, has been given to Norma Lerigst, who is now a famous singer. „ , , “Dorothy Ziel is an interior decorator for a large candy company in San Francisco. Her portrait adorns many of the candy company s boxes. Page rlwenty-nine

“Two of the greatest Basket Ball stars of the season are Warren Wachter who plays with the Giants and Bernard Osborne of White Sox fame. “Fennimore now boasts of a great department store of which Francis Schafer is head saleslady, and McGregor having become one of the greatest cities of the central states, Bernice Kaber has deigned to return there to reside. “Grace White is located on a farm out of Seneca and Lillian Anderson has gone to Norway to collect material for a reference book on the Earfy Vikings.” “The greatest law firm in the middle states is the firm of Kopan and Roach of Chicago, which consists of Martha Kopan and Eunice Roach of the class of '22 “Carl Schroeder has taken up telegraphy and is now employed at the Burlington Depot. Through great dilligence and patience, Ray Weighner now owns the Crystal Laundry, corner Bluff and Main, formerly owned by H. Kuch-enbecker. “Lottie Wing and Dorothy Speck are untiring workers of the Salvation Army. They are at present in the Klondike region administering to the spiritual needs of the miners there. “The principal of the De Soto state graded school is Dorothea How-arth. Through her efforts De Soto schools have risen a great deal, and she is responsible for the new Carnegie Library established there.” It was at this moment that the “hired help” came in for lunch, and we put away our Ouija board and the deceased uncle. Angela remarked. “Well, fame in some form has come to every member of the class of ’22.” And I agreed emphatically, mostly because the Oui.ia said so. “Cavern” Copper—’22. We’ve had sorrows in our time. That made us want to learn to rhyme— But the words would never come to our poor pates. But now we’ve an inspiration, Saddest thing in all creation, Crudest thing e’er perpetrated by the fates. Life is sad you must admit, And we’ve had enough of it, Can stand no more its cruel bumps. What we wanted was so small, Wasn’t any trouble a-tall, Just a picture of our prof-o with the mumps. Clara Barney—’22
