Commercial Prophesy Madam Goldilocks, the 'eminent beauty specialist of Paris, decides to visit New York in order to revive the 19th century mode of hair- dressing. It is her purpose to convince Americans, by means of her flowing locks, that waving tressesare woman's crowning glory. She, therefore, calls on EOLYN, the originator of the Famous MACNAMEE Method of Chirography for her business cards. Fortified with these evidences of her art, Madam Goldilocks sets sail. She arrives at New York and is met by MARIE SPAULDING, the advertising manager of the New York Evening Journal. Miss Spaulding is intent upon broadcasting her friend7s business and they decide to spend a day together in order to talk the matter over. Madam Goldi- locks insists, however, that they must first visit St. Agnes High School, where they spent so many happy hours. She wishes to call on her teachers whom she has not seen for many years. Upon their arrival they are welcomed by Sr. Alicia QALICE RAKEMANJ, who is very much pleased to see them. Sister is in high spirits today, for she has just received a telegram stating that AGNES HOFFMAN, the rival of George Hossfneld, has won the World Championship by typewriting 300 words a minute. After leaving the school Miss Spaulding purchases the Evening Journal and calls her 'companion's attention to a cartoon made on the typewriter by BERTHA SCHLICHTIG, the world's renowned car- toonist. This is another surprise connected with Madamis first day in New York. They have lu11ch at the McAlpin Hotel. The lunch is tasty but not to Madam Goldilocks, who has an attack of toothache and finds it necessary to call on the Dentist, Dr. Pyorrhea. She is cordiallv received by his secretary, who she is amazed to learn is ANNA REISERT, the former star and dentist's secretary of' St. Agnes. At 2:30 Miss Spaulding has an appointment with two friends, CECILIA SCHMITT, a lawyer who is prominent in the Wall Street vicinity, and VIOLA JEWNGS, certified public accountant. When Miss Jennings gets into! a legal scrape, because she is so. conscientious about figures, Miss Schmitt, by means of her gift of argumentation and natural loquacity., is sure to settle the case in Miss Jennings' favor. At the suggestion of Miss Schmitt the quartet decide to visit the Metropolitan Opera to hear the New Prima Donna, EDITH LAMOND, make her debut. They are elated when the applause of the audience again and again demands an encore. i sz

On! the way home while promenading along the Great Wliite Wvay, they pass the Roxy Theatre. The billboard reads, Wllhe Gold Dust Twins Will Do Their FANCY STEPS Here Tonight. Madam Goldi- locks, having heard the fame of these nDwarfs, insists upon getting a look at them. Guess Whom she sees-J EAN EIFLER and VIRGINIA HYLAND-as little as ever. The two chums decide to end this perfect day by dining at The MAUDE JOHNSON Hotel. There, in company with their hostess, they enjoy a sumptuous repast, meanwhile rehearsing the events of the day and their variousi experiences. That night before retiring, Madam gazes intently upon the heavens studded with diamonds, each beautiful in its own peculiar setting. The eye of her imagination perceives in these silent forget-me-nots of the angels the countenances of 11er former schoolmates and from her heart bursts forth a fervent act of thanksgiving that Father Time, having considered and weighed well the talents and capabilities of each, has chosen for so many divers occupations the members of the CLASS OF 1927.
