fQI,.G.H,,.S1,.C H.. 9 0 Ls.- 11.1 If E Class Prophecy dl' Georgene, a girl of the Class of '19 W. H. S., says: Oh, how I wish I knew what the class of 1919 will be doing ten years from now. What fun it should be if I really could see the future, as Aeneas did! I'im so sleepy now, though, that I can't see anything, not even the present. She yawns and lies down on the couch. I'll rest just a minute and then I'll get my things ready for commencement., How very sleepy I am. Then Iris comes to her in a dream, and says: Oh mortal, I have come to fulfill your wish. I am Iris, the 'messen- ger of the gods, sent by June. You have desired to know what will be the future of your classmates of that excellent class of nlneteen hundred nineteen. Georgene: But I don't quite understand. Iris: You don't understand who I am after all the talks your Latin and English teachers have given you about the gods on Mt. Olympus and that I am their messenger ? Georgene: Oh yes, I see plainly now. And you will really tell the future of all my friends. It's too good to be true. -But please begin quickly for there are so many. Let's take them alphabetically, that will be easier and we don't want to forget any. What about Ida Adgate ? Iris: Ida will join the Salvation Army and give street corner lectures. You, Georgene, are to journey around the world and will see Ida in Boston. Gertrude Downs will pass around her tambourine and collect the pennies. Near this groupyou may see a sign advertising a boxing match between Jess Williard and Ted Boyd, who has won international fame as a heavy- weight boxer. Next you will go to New York to hear the New York Jazz Band, which Ray Jacobs will lead. Arlington Everitt will play the trom- bone to make as much noise as possible. You will also want to see the Follies of 1930. There will be Mildred Kistler as the leading lady, with Katherine Whitnum and Blanche Smith as fancy dancers. To your surprise Belle Bethune will be scene shifter. She will have just finished painting a new one for the Warren Opera House. After the performance a dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria will probably taste mighty good. There Isabel Dolan will be head waitress and Bert Whitman one of the chefs. Before sailing for Europe it will be best to go to Washington and see the workings of our government. Lucile Davis will be speaker of the House of Representatives. Florence Frost and Florence Sutliff will also be living at the capitol as retired suffragettes. Their aim in life will have been accomplished. In the Philadelphia paper you will read of the second Billy .4 ZZ

HIGH scHooL LIFE Sunday, who will be Herbert Chinnock. His assistant pastor will be Zelma Slater. . X Georgene: Oh that is wonderful. Imagine Lucile Davis or Herbert Chinnock, or Zelma Slater making speeches. But who will be president at that time ? Iris: That I cannot tell you for my orders from the goddess were to reveal the future of your classmates only. Georgene: I forgot, excuse me. I will not interrupt again. Please go on for it's awfully interesting. I know I will just love to travel and see all these noted people. Iris: Surely I will excuse you. Before leaving the United States, Helen Smith will try to sell you Edith Lynn's latest book. The illustra- tions will be drawn by Ann Milliken. You will find the book interesting as well as educational. Your first stop will be in England. The London paper will be full of news of a new metal which Edith Seeman has dis- covered. And that reminds me of Charles Mullen, who has also made a dis- covery. He found a new North Pole. In the society column of that paper, you will notice news of, well, she was formerly Dorothy Clarke but is now the wife of an earl. In Paris you will want to have your hair shampooed by Marion Nesbitt, who will also be demonstrating naturally wavy hair. She will still be interested in certain kinds of dogs. Margaret Farrell will be in France, living with her California farmer who could never make up his mind to return to the States. So Margaret joined him there and now she knows all about farm work and has to do it too. The League of Nations will be meeting in Geneva. It will be time to elect another Pres- ident, and Robert Bean's name will be on the ticket for that office. His valet will be Gordon Beck.' You will probably see a girl whom you called Floty Richards in High School. She will be very much interested in plant life, especially beans, peas, etc. Another Florence will be there whose last name is Riley. She will be teaching mules esthetic dancing. In Venice you will find Clara Waldeck buying Venetian lace, which she sells at Atlan- tic City every summer. In Egypt Ned Brooks will be studying Egyptian hieroglyphics. Audrey Bishop, Harriet Barringer, Eugene Dyke and Lillian Kasten will be noted guides to assist you in climbing the Pyramids. While crossing the Pacific the pilot will discern a pirate's submarine. It will be captured and the pilot himself will be none other than Charles Van Gorder. Of course among his crew will be Lanore Weir. Clara Weisheit and Florence Shafer are terribly frightened at first but they are soon quieted. In California you will find Dorla Trask as a real Aunt from Califor- nia. In Universal City you will fmd Mary Guarnieri posing for the movies as the latest vampire. Ruth Lehr will bring you from San Fran- cisco to Warren in her latest aero-bus. On your way you will pass Harry Bock's machine which is an aero-moving bus. When passing over Mon- tana, Ruth will point out the ranch where Reynolds Konold lives with his third wife. She will also show you a bachelor's colony nearby whose originators are Paul Harrell, Clarence Lyntz, Harold Lynn and Loy Smith. You will arrive just in time for the Trumbull County Fair. Bruce Powrie will be glad to sell you either hash or hot dogs. You will meet Jerry Ford too, who reports that she is a motorcycle cop in Cortland. Ida Bell Hirst
