20 THE CHAOS nttnr (ElaaB IJrapljerg There has been a question in the minds ot the Seniors and the rest of the school, including the faculty, as to what is to become of the notorious class of ' 23. The question has been debated pro and con, but was not decided until there was evidence of a strange visitation in the assembly room which was accompanied by a high wind. After the mysterious presence had passed the floor was found covered with scraps of yellow paper of many shapes and sizes. This was such an unusual situation that the papers were carefully collected and taken to the research laboratory where they were thoroughly scrutinized. They were found to contain valuable information as to the future of the Senior class. This is surely proof that the gods are interested in us. The papers are being preserved under glass and can be seen by any that doubt this story. An accurate copy of these words of wisdom follow: Mrs. Battleday, who is now Miss Gladys Bill, will live on a farm in the Gifford region. M. J. Brown will be the wife of the illustrious track coach at Sprint College. Lydia Cain will be an old maid and run a rooming house in North Rensselaer. Edward Cain is going to be a giant dairyman and practically con- trol the Dairyman ' s trust. Grace Campbell is destined to be the mother of a couple of famous football stars. Delia Amsler is going to be the hard working wife of one of our farmers. Harold Donnelly is a name that will be greatly respected. It will stand for all that is authority in the scientific world. Harold Fleming is to be the editor of a periodical devoted to Women ' s Fancies. It is foretold that David Fisher will run a soft drink place in New- land.
