PROPHECY OF THE CLASS OF ’23 The queerest thing happened the other day. We were all sitting peacefully in our seats when something unusual occurred. All we seniors were having a special meeting in 206 when all of a sudden the room started to sink. Honest, it was the queerest feeling that anyone could ever have. They always said our high school was built on quick sand but very few people really believed it. We kept sinking and sinking until finally everything was dark and one of the boys, one of our bright ones, Paul Bartchy, I believe suggested that we open the door. We did and there stood a man dressed like a Plindu and he told us to follow him so we did, and we entered a queerly furnished room, and decided to ask him to gaze into the crystal to see what we were doomed to do. The man arranged us around the room and then proceeded: “I see the president of your class, Dick Roose, doing oratorical work. He was entirely against it in High School, but now he is allowed to talk and talk without someone telling him time is up. Loren Plerbert has joined the Knot Circus” and is the leading man as you all expected. Lera PI arris is Queen of Hearts at the Home for the Aged. Laura Ackelson is still the home loving creature you all knew her to be in your High School days. Helen Goodwin is washing dishes at the Ritz and thinks maybe she will someday be the manager. Harriet Triem is a soda jerker in Kalamazoo and is doing fine mixing work. I see Newt Sterling lias a fishing campaign going on and he is still leading although John Simonds and Emmer Ackelson are rapidly coming to the front. Louise Scullion is running a paper in Hong Kong; she has a joke column and riddles as the main part of her paper.

school even if there is a great hindrance. Genesta Barber is picking strawberries and planting potatoes, but there is many a farmer lad there to help her. Russel Limestahl is so deeply in love that he has to wear double glasses to see anyone else. Edna Fynes is Mae Murray's under- study and is leading the leading man and usually Mae doesn't perform. Florence Shaffer is driving a “Chevy Coupe” around and at odd times is singing at the different private house parties. I now see Virginia Walpert, teaching Spanish in Mexico and madly in love with one of the natives. Florence Calladine has consented to wash dishes with Helen at the Ritz; they think perhaps aii office boy will come along soon. Anna Kloos has become a private stenographer of J. D. Rochefeller’s grandson, and Ellen Wight is helping at times. Esther Kelley is now manager of the Oriental; her specialty is the candy department. Lucia Himmel- spach is the happy blushing bride of a cotton manufacturer in Maine, and Stella is working for a crook and is rapidly making him over. Martha Park and Mary Iler work in the same office. Raymond Lowry, I see, is doing a ' pressing” business at Goldenboraugh's, Joe Bodo is a fruit dealer in the Guam Islands far from his sweetie. Ruth Gordon is a missionary down in Fiji Islands with Ruth Dressel helping her. They are trying to reform Irene Steiner. She is widely known for all night parties. Blanche Kaiser is still good at tickling the keys and is working at the “Big Plant” owned by Harry Sheehan in Damascus. Harry is only home occasionally and he and Jeff Davis are great friends and are always exploring the globe. Josephine Dunn is a tight rope walker in the circus which is situated at Fairfield. Bertille Paumier is married and settled aown. Mary Cosgrove is president of the W. C. T. U. and her constant helpers, are Elizabeth Miller and Eleanor Tolerton, “We can tell you” being the name of the club. The man had just stopped to think when we started going up and next thing we knew we were all in 206 again. The first thing I heard was Paul Barchy saying: “I'm mad ’cause he didn’t tell me I was going to marry that pretty kid.” But I will prophesy that he will marry Ruth Hoch, although Mike O’Keefe will be heartbroken. I think Mike ought to have an Irish wife anyway. The next thing we knew Walter Davis was escorting us all out of the room singing his favorite song “I Love Me”. GLADYS PROBERT ’23. page nineteen
