Sixteen THE EAGLE CLASS PROPHECY 'Twas but a dream. A most realistic one, to be sure: but still a dream. I was seated in a private dining room of the Palace Club, New York City, talking over old times with my life-long friend and present part- ner, Ray Bills. It had been a hard day at the office, for the electrical business was at its flood. Ive were brain-weary and needed something to stimulate our minds. Suddenly the door opened, admitting a masked man,-one of the club's entertainers. He announced that he was a magician and a elairvoyant and asked what would please our fancy. Ray, thinking he would ask him to do something almost impossible, said, '4Tell us what our classmates of 1928 are doing now. The performer uttered some mystic words, then began in a low monotone: lXIaurice Mori- arty, your good friend, was only yesterday honored as the greatest surgeon now living. He has contributed much to the health of the world. Margaret Hennessy, a nurse, is a co- worker with him in the battle against disease. Bernardine Blaney has become a famous dancer on the Chicago stage. She will soon Colne to New York with her companion and press agent, Catherine Stack. Miss Stack is a most cap- able manager. Mae Koch is at present writing editorials for a huge news syndicate of which Florence VVhelan is the head. These two brilliant writers are campaigning for the promotion of world peace. Francis Culkin and Rose Young have climbed the social ladder and are the leaders of the fashionable set. Agnes Sheedy and Katherine Fehr chose teaching as their field of endeavor and are now well-known edu- cators. The arts called lllargaret Shaugh- nessy and she is now in Europe, completing some royal portraits. Geraldine Brien and Mildred Clisson are upholding the athletic prowess of the United States Bliss Brien is Olympic swimming champion and Miss Clisson is Olympic diving champion? The magician then paused. For a moment there was a silence, but Finally Ray cried, HAH are accounted for except Lawrence Long. How is he? The masked man laughed softly and said, May I introduce myself? I am Profes- sor X, the greatest exponent of humbug, magic and mind-reading since the days of Houdini. I am Lawrence Long, at your service 5 He removed the mask, revealing the face of our old chum. Truly, this glimpse of the future shows the possibility of each one gaining happiness in a different occupation. But whatever our work, let us strive on 'fFor God and Countryf' HERBIAN ITLOTZ, Class Prophet.

Elghteen THE EAGLE CL SS POE Dear St. John's, soon we'll say Adieu,' to you, To teachers, friends, and our classmates so true, lVe,ll find no joy when we make our 'fFarewell, For one and all have learned to love you well, But, like a good mother, to us you leave Three things that will cheer us, when we would grieve, And we, fond children, will keep them always To lighten our cares and brighten our days. All thro' our lives, one light will shine so bright, Leading us bravely and showing us right, lNIaking us loyal, courageous and true, Ready to help us when our friends are few, For your motto, we thank you, dear St. John's, And ask you to never sever your bonds. 'CPro Deo et Patrial' ever in view Each one will prove his loyalty to you. In this school, many lessons we have learned, And now we know our success is well earnedg Kind teachers have guided us on our way, Showing us how to make each moment payg And all that we've learned, will help us in need, Governing each action, each word and deed, From our school days one virtue we obtained, XVith Perseveranee, all honor we gained. Alma Mater, your last gift is best made Of gayest colors that will never fadeg Mem'ries! Mem'ries of days we spent with you! Menfries of things we did and planned to do! lNIem'ries that will brighten our future years, By making us smile and hiding our tearsg VVhen we're old, and weary of pleasures lVe'll rememberfschool days and their treas- ures. lNLx1-1 B.
