The affair was really out of this world. During the gay evening, I bumped into Tommy West, who was now working for Uncle Sam in the Navy, and was home on a furlough. He told me that Dot Owens was a secretary in the Navy. He also said that some of our other classmates were working for Uncle Sam; they were Justa Webb, David Williams, and Walter Wagner, soldiers; and Curtis Andrews, Air Force, was happily flying in the wild blue yon- der. I met Billy Livesay and Dean Fields who were joint-partners in the Venus Fur Com- pany. At the end of the dance my feet were killing me, so I had to call it a day. The next morning, being Sunday, I went to the Little Church Around the Corner, to see Richard Harrell, the minister. Since I work as a secretary in the Venusville General Hospital, I decided to visit the hospital in Future City, The Robeson Hospital, to see how it was equipped. I arrived atthe hospital and was looking around when I ran into Micki Page, a registered nurse, hurrying down the hall. We talked a few minutes, and during the conversation I learned that Millie Alderman, Jean White, and Sara Brewer were all registered nurses at Rex Hospital. The biggest news she had to tell me was that the hospital had been named after the head doctor, Sig Robeson. She directed me to his office, after talking a while; he told me that Anne Flye, Ann Ange, and Edith Smith were all nurses on his staff. He also told me that John Owen and Jake Smith were handling the dental work for him. The days breezed by, and it was time for me to head home from my vacation. As I passed the printing shop, I stopped in to buy a newspaper, so I would have something to read on the long trip home. The name of the paper, The Future City Herald, had as its cartoonist, Tommie Walters; and James Taylor as its artist. The front headlines stated, Jimmy Avent, Nuclear Engineer, Discovers New Carbon-Dioxide Bomb. Imagine, one of my classmates making the headlines! Bucky Fountain, now a radio engineer at Station WTHS, is also the number one radio announcer of the year. Having packed and caught the spacecoach, I noticed a gigantic building being constructed just outside the city limits. Inquiring about it, I learned that it was designed by architect, Donald Anderson, and was being built by the Elmore Construction Company, headed by our own David Elmore. For entertainment, I tuned into the Station WTHS, and heard Bucky Fountain giving a play by play description of the FUTURE CITY MOONPIES versus the SATURN DEVILS, in the ballgame of the year. The game had been going on for ten minutes, but thanks to Willie Strawbridge, the homerun king, the MOONPIES were leading 500-1. That night after I was at home, I sat down and began thinking. So many changes had taken place in these 2000 years, what would happen to the universe in the next 2000 years? YOUR PROPHETESS DORIS LASSITER
