Once upon a time, a long, long time ago, when the world was yopng, an armv of witches and dwarfs, with the fearful Hecate at their head, ruled the universe. Not only did they rule the winds, the water and the stars, but th; y held sway over the minds of men. But the time came when man, beginning to think for himself, began to devise for himself various means by which he might have speed. Then it was discovered by those withered hags of magic that their battered broom stocks proved entirely useless when pitted against the modern giants of machinery. So they packed up their spells and charms and gathered to them their hideous pet toads and snakes and retired into the bowels of the earth to be seen no more. But they were not entirely lost to the eyes of men, for it had been decreed that when nine hundred and ninty-nine years had purged away the memory of their misdeeds a chosen few of their number should arise to the surface and issuing forth should roam at large for a short space of time, seeking those of us whom they might assist by their magic power. And it is by this power that I am enabled to unfold for you tonight the fortunes that lie in wait for the members of the senior class of 1920. It was at the end of a fruitless journey wherein I had searched in vain for the key that would unlock for me the gate of mists and rainbows that hid from us the story of our future life, when I was startled by a strange disturbance in the earth and from under my very feet with a great rumbling and grumbling-- ' From jout a cavern dark and cold Issuea a voice both shrill and old: "Thrice the schoolhouse clock hath * struck, Thrice the brinded cat hath mewed, Thrice the schoolhouse' bell hath Thrice and, once from lip'* brazen tongue, Tis time! Tis time! Round about the cauldron go, In the wornout text books throw. Latin that since Caesar's time Has caused high school students ,to faint and pine. Thumb worn ponies secretly got, Boil them first in the charmed pot. Pouble, double toil and trouble, Latin boil and Latin bubble! Original themes taken from books, Algebra orges with venomous looks. Double, double toil and trouble, Note books boil and note books bubble! Cool them with geometry books And a generous dash of angles and hooks; Gather ye into the charmed pot The potent charm that will tell tjieir lot' , -f Upon the corner qf the moon There hangs a vaporous drop light soon. Shake it . thou from off its place, Whence it hangs like fairy lace, And in the'cauldron drop thou the spell And all the harpies in the dell Will gather there in magic vapors And with all their lore reward thy labors. That every senior may know his fate, ' His future career both humble and * great. Now about the cauldron sing, Let's all join the fairy ring. Peace! The charm is wound up!" Look ye! Behold our president! Twenty years has passed lightly over Harvey's head, leaving no trace of their passage save a few intellectual wrinkles and a profound stare. Harvey has found his life's work among the insects. Behold! His name is a by word in allscieptific zoologies and to add to his fame he already discovered- three distinctly new species of the orthoptera, one of which he has named after his long suffering wife, probably in cpmpensation for the many times she has found her namesake in her powder box. Nye, in the How the •e! Mary ' at fee movie actress, Roi handsome heroft audience sighs in Pickford, in her commanded such as that which of Rosemary's winsome smile and mischevious black eyes. But strange! The famous actress resides in her palatial home with "her feline pjets in a state of single blessedness. Rosemary never could find a blond man of the right shade. . ' Look sharp! This is a wary curl of smoke. Methinks that the fairy pipe from whence thou wert blown was owned bgr an imp with right nimble toes. All this hurry and blurry is caused by Bob Weber as he rushes tyither and thither with a' note book flying out ^bf his hand and a bev/ of pencils balanced behind his ears. One would think he had taken leave of^ his senses by the way he mutters, but he is only trying to write up, an account of a baseball game and invent an uproariously funny pun for the afternoon edition of America's most famous sporting bulletin. Robert is editor and staff combined, which explains why his printed joke3 are never new This is a gaudy bubble that arises to the top. As it bursts I am almost dazzled by the blaze of light. The stage of course. Jennie Mae, th? queen of vaudeville. When she stands there in the glaring spotlight and sings a catchy little tune in her own irresistable way she makes their feet go tapping and their heads a swaying, then the world is hers. ~ t This wisp of smoke comes slowly and steadily, bringing a blare of music And a company of knights in khaki. At their head their general, sitting straight as a ramrod on his horsed back. What a thrilling picture Ftank makes! No wonder the cheering crowd throws roses at him. With such an army and such a commander liberty and democracy shall never perish. And here • are books, a world of books. And strange, they are all bound in Kelly green and white. In the midst of them I find their famous authoress, Mary Smith, up to her eyes on her latest and best seller, "The Three Wheeled Limousine," which will replace the Illiad on the high school curriculum. Mingled with the witches' smoke theire is an alien fragrance, due possibly to the cigar George Barbian is smoking as. he reclines~at ease in his study. The one plague of George's life has been womtn, so he has built for himself a retreat high above the tree tops so that when he has finished his daily toil he may climb into his aeroplane and fly to his aerial den, where no female may follow and make his musings hideous with her chatter. Here is another brilliant bubble, and again we have the stage. But this is not vaudeville or the movies, it is the opera. The stage is partly darkened and the music plays softly. Every diamond in the famous diamond horseshoe holds its' breath as Mme. Meyers sings the death song of the expiring buttetfly. Blanche has reached the height of her ambition.' In the applause of the world she has found her heart's desire. Clarence has always had ideas of his own as to how this government should be run. And this bubble that rises from the heart of my cauldron tells just how he is applying those ideas. Senator Niesen has done more towards enforcing laws to prevent delinquent cats from running loose and the younger generation from using rouge and waving tyeir hair than any man that eter lived. Wait until he becomes president. This last smoke tendril rises gently, bringing with it a pretty picture. This is a recently discovered planet, called by astronomers "A world just for two." And on this world I find a shining palace of gold. One bright day Genevieve heard, with rapture, the new old story from the lips of her hero bold and they rode away in a toy balloon to a world that was all their own, and in their palace of love and apple blossoms they lived happy ever after. v •, . * Nofe the pot has ceased to boll and the bubbles have" ceased to rise.

Russell, a farmer residing near Volo, filed suit Ml Justice Churchill's court at Volo against Peter Engeln to recover a Chalmers touring car which had been left at a garage conducted by Engeln at Volo. When the case was called for trial a change of venue Vfas taken and the matter brought to Justice Hubbard's court in Libertyville. It seems Russell was to pay the garage man $175 to overhaul and paint the car in cfuestion.. The automobile was left in the garage forfive weeks ftml during that tinfe Russell alleged that Engeln converted the machine to his own use. Russell went to McHenry and found the car at that place at ten o'clock at night with Engeln driving. He demanded the auto and Engeln refused to give it up. Russell then had a writ of replevin issued.
