1 Ill llllt ' III 1 ' THE SCHEHLEYI JOURNAL ' L lllll- Ill CLASS PROPHECY I was taking my fifth trip to Cal- ifornia by airplane and had just about arrived at the conclusion that my trip would prove uneventful. when suddenly the plane dipped downward and I was, thrown against some man, knocking the paper from his hands. Oh, I beg your-why, Dwight Mallery of all people, I explained as I recognized our former class president. Well, if it isn't Edna Garretsonf' he said, equally surprised. VVhere do you think you're going way out here? I hav-:n't seen you since we graduated. Where have you been keeping 'yourself P I am keeping an orphan asylum, and just at present am on my way to San Francisco to see Margaret Ryan, who is gong to take one of my girls to introduce her into soci- ety. Your husband must be wealthy to enable you to keep an asylum, laughed Dwight. Oh, I'm not married, I hastily replied. The orphanage is being financed by some mysterious mil- lionaire. Myrtle Lutz, who, by the way, is my chief assistant, and I have been trying our best to find out who he is and only last week we solved the mystery. You'll never guess, for it is nobody but our class treasurer, Bob Fleming. His house- keeper, Elsie Dickerson, told usf' Bob certainly deserves to be a millionaire, said Dwight. But do you know anything about the rest of our class? What became of Susan Maneese? You and she used to be such good friends. Oh, Susan! I answered. You knew she married a wealthy man and that he died shortly after their wedding, leaving her all his money and a large estate in South Carolina. Now she is keeping a Cat and Dog Hospital. Anne Jones and Bess Goff are with her, and Louis Stev- ens is her cat and dog doctor. And, oh, by the way, Marion Rowan and Dorothy Alpern surely profit by ex- perience. Marion is ,the cook in my asylum 'and Dorothy is the best housemaid I have. But, Dwight, here I am doing all the talking as usual, and I haven't asked you what you know of the class or what you're doing for a living,-I suppose you're pres- ident of some big firm. Oh, no, laughed Dwight, noth- ing like thatg I am simply an old married man, living on a big ranch in Oregon. But,I try to keep posted on our class and with the help of Isadore I-Iorovitz have succeeded somewhat. Here, you may have this paper, for I get off soon. Thank you, Dwight, I said as I accepted the folded paper. But what do you know about the class? Wfhat became of Charles Stewart? Poor Chuckf, laughed Dwight, he broke the hearts of so many girls, that he at last decided to re- main a bachelor, so he and Carroll
