(Hlass JJniyhrry T was the year of invention, it was the year of strange hap- 41 ixsnings, this year of 2009. Before L go on with my story, 1 will tell you where I am, and how I came here. ’Way back in the year of— I think it was 1923, anyway, it was the same year that “tlawkin’s Shockless Aviation Suit was invented; and which you all know was clearly described by Francis DeWelt. Some years after, 1 decided to try out this sliockless avia¬ tion suit. I was flying in my airoplane one day at an altitude of about seven miles. I told my meclianican to drive v hilt I would jump off and fall to earth, testing the flexibility of this wonderful device. At first I was somewhat afraid to make the attempt, but my mechanic told me that the sliockless avia¬ tion suit was thoroughly reliable. Being thus reasurred, I jumped off. Down, down, down, 1 went gathering speed every second — when Crash! 1 came to earth, the springs of the suit expanded, and away I shot into the air again. I travelled in space for eighty-two years until one day I finally struck solid ground. 1 opened the door in my suit, crawled out, and to my surprise, I saw a sign reading, “This planet reserved for the members of the 1923 class of S. U. II. S. “ .Just then 1 heard the noise of a cart approaching. On looking around I beheld a little fellow coming up on a Kiddie- Ivar, Ids long hair and beard streaming in the wind. In his hand he held a long spear, which he jabbed at me, crying, “Get out o’ here! I’ll kill yuli!” To my surprise, I recog¬ nized him to be my old friend “Kelly” Blake. I had quite a time quieting down his warlike attitude, but finally did so by convincing him of my good intentions, and by telling him who I was. He was glad to see me again after a separation of so many years, and asked me how I had happened upon this strange land. He said Fanny DeWelt had come ten years be¬ fore, and was now a hermit, eating raw animals and living- in caves. I was the last of the ( lass of ’23 to arrive upon this planet, so lit said he would call the rest of the members to¬ gether. He then began beating on a tom-tom, which was made of a hollow rock with a skin tightly stretched across the top. Soon l heard a rustling noise in the trees above me, and to my astonishment, “Mugs” Beckman, “Winnie” Nimmo and Katie Colley dropped lightly to the ground from a tree close b . they told me that they had been made young again
