f Amr X f Noc,cAs1N - L-A 'IQTTAN no L.-.J Zuu Zuu says that Bradley Dunlap will become a promising poli- tician. He will finally get what he is seeking: for, after all, in the new era, it will be the man who 'has a way with him' who will get the vote. Bradley will find his soothing and melodious voice a great asset, as it will bring to him oiers to go on the stage, to conduct evangelistic campaigns, to collect bills from tightwads, to auctioneer, and numerous other avoca- tions. However, he will derive his greatest income as advertiser of a permanent hair wave process. The medium's voice trailed off into silence. At last I struggled to my feet and felt my way into the open air. Class Will We, members of the Class of 1920, of the University of Chattanooga, City of Chattanooga, County of Hamilton, State of Tennessee, United States of America, Western Hemisphere, The Earth, Solar System, The Universe, being of sane mind and disposing memory, do thereby make and publish this, our last will and testament in the following manner, to-wit: First, to the Board of Trustees, we bequeath our appreciation for making possible the building of such a splendid college.

, ff t Xx I I 6722- MCMXXZ AXAOCCASIN - L..iQii!3jg9'j.L..l ing more nor less than a seance of the famous ouija medium. As one of the spectators in the corner, I kept my eyes fastened on her hands as they moved over the board. I had a vaguely uneasy feeling which in- creased as the silence grew heavier. Finally the medium opened her lips and called a name-my name. For the moment I was too stupified to speak, and I sat dumbly petrified. She repeated my name and added: A spirit calling itself Zuu Zuu has something to tell you. I summoned my voice from the far depths whither it had fled and answered that I would take the message. The medium then continued: She has a message for you to give Ernest Harris. Within five years he will be Professor of Astronomy at G. P. S., and will often take the members of his class to observe the heavenly bodies at night. Tell him, on no account, to lead these young ladies to Cameron Hill in the neigh- borhood of West Sixth Street. Should he disregard this warning, I see trouble, and a great deal of explaining to be done by Ernest. A short silence, then again the medium spoke. I have other messages for you. Zuu Zuu says that a friend of yours named Katherine Conn will be married within a year. She is as yet undecided which of two men to marry. She will be very happy if she follows the advice given her by Allah Axiom on this subject. An important message for 'Big Boy' Eldridge. He will buy a chicken farm this summer. He must devote all his time and energies to the chickens-the feathered kind-and must endeavor to forget Emma Jane. She will be happier with someone else. Tell Carrol Denton to give up the teaching project. He will make more money as a labor agitatorf' A pause. The room was oppressively still. At last the medium broke the silence. Zuu Zuu has something for you to tell May Louise Beckham. She will have a decision to make at the end of three years. Tell her that there is as much variety in the life of a minister's wife as there is in that of a stage favorite. After three years' study of music she should be lfully qualified to lead the church choir, if that is the only quality she ac s. Tell Noel Cardwell that he must completely revise his flirtatious nature. A sacrifice of boxes of Nunnally's candy and of special delivery letters from Birmingham will be necessary before he will be worthy of a good choir leader. A message for Annie Cameron. Annie will be society reporter for the Times for two years. She will make no mistake in becoming a mis- sionary at the end of that time. Tell Clyde Newell that his three years' study of Chemistry I and II at U. C. were not wasted. He will find the knowledge gained in this study invaluable. The experiments which he will perform will be looked upon as miracles by his congregation at Luney Creek, and will draw large crowds to hear his sermons. He will eventually be famous.
