W f t . ws fi ! I R22 2 g A Glimpse Into the Future ES, we were actually going to take the boat to see the Old World! After leaving New Orleans, with all the hustle and bustle of getting on board, we went out on deck. When we got into the Gulf, that vast body of water, it was a grand sight, but I had a longing for home. Soon I pulled .a steamer-letter from my pusre, which Florence had sent me to help pass away the time until we should stop at Charleston. It had been six years since Ilhad been with Floss in school at T. P. C., and she spoke of the jolly times we had together. She was the same old Flossie Claiborne, with her hair as pink as ever, and although she had not reached the height of her ambition, she had a one-karat, and, of course, I knew what would follow. We took a little run up to the capitol, and one day as our party was coming out of the mint, I noticed a certain touring car fly past, but thought no more of it. After a few minutes, the car circled around and stopped directly in front of us, and whom should I behold but Mabel Carwile. Oh, those sweet friendships made at college! Mabel told me that she was spending the summer with an aunt in Washington, was afterwards to take a trip to japan. In speaking of our dear old Soph class, I told Mabel she was traveling enough for the whole class, of which she was so fond. After other visits, we were really started from New York, and in a week we landed on English soil. From the British Isles to Deutschland, we moved to see new sights and make new discoveries. Ah! but my greatest discovery was while I was in Leipsic. Being a lover of music, I went to visit the famous conservatory, where I had longed to study. I was shown to the grand and immense concert hall, and there, who was practicing with her master for a concert but Olive Caldwell. She stopped, we greeted each other, and after a little chat, she played several numbers for me. She had' certainlv mastered her violin, and if anyone could make that instrument speak, it was she. It was her third year there and in two more she would receive her Sheepskin When we had made quite a stay in Germany, time called us to other parts of Europe. I had been told that one of my friends lived in Switzerland, and conse- quently, when we reached that flower garden of Europe, I was rather anxious to reach Lucerne. One morning I took a carriage and was driven to the address which I had been given some months before. When I was admitted. the same handsome Lucille came forward. We discussed the times when we were girls together, and some of the present. I-Ier husband was very much interested in the government affairs of his country and had a fine position. I was also invited to dinner that evening. At dinner there were two other guests, and as we talked and gave toasts, I enjoyed that toast best which we drank to the health of the Soph class of l9I0, and its officers. When I was alone again, I reviewed the past months, and thought how differ- ently our fates are steered from the course planned by us. Yes, but sometimes dreams come true! 38
