PROPHECY FOR THE CLASS OF
1914
GLADYS WALLIS

Ocala, Fla, July 10, 1928.
Dear Mr.. Workman:
l hear that you are now spending
your summer months teaching at
Peabody College and selecting your
famous Tennessee teachers for the
next years session of the Ocala high
school Please do not make any ar
rangements for teaching there next
year, for we just must have a reun-
ion of our class, and it would be in
complete without you.
am now in Ocala again, having
just returned from trip around the
world. Last night l took down my
old grammar school geography from
a high shelf, and as / gently pulled
it down, dozens of its ragged leaves
fell fiuttering to the floor in cloud
of dust. Naturally l turned to a

Of my various experiences. but since
it is impossible, / shall only tell you
Of the record since 1914 of those
students of that class, of whom you
will still think whenever you view
your gray hairs in your mirror.
Before starting out l paid short
visit to my sister, Theodosia, in AL
bany, y. Y. As l suppose you have
heard that Theodosia married wild
over about sixty years old who has
seventeen children. He is quite
wealthy, however, and is a model
husband Theodosia is perfectly
happy rearing model children. Their
table manners are perfect, and they

For many years they have been sdvo-

goods could come in. in order to give the
work Of making the goods all to home
labor. Now the foreigner IL not bringing
IN any goods, consequently he is paving
no tariff. This condition has placed the
Republicans in sad dilemma, for which
they blame the Democratic administra-
ton. The Republican policy for years
has been 70 keep the goods out and let
foreign laoor come in free, 90 the big
manufacturers could make huge fortunes
and thus contribute h the Republican
campaign fond and keep them in power.
For proof Of this look at the length Of
