The scene shifted and we saw Lucy Fortescue being taken to a hospital. She had lost her mind completely because her students could not learn to spell her name, and she had gone around spelling ever since. Mary Biddle took her place in the school as head of the mathf-nanr- department.

Further down on Broadway was spied Helen Griffin and Ester Mae Griffin, who had organized nine hundred ninetv-nine Sewing 'circles.

We next saw Maurice McCullen hastening to catch a train. Reporters and photographers besiege her on both sides. She is on her way to some Foreign country.

In Egypt we found Nora Lee Harris. Miriam Mullen, and Maggie Hinson. They have been in Egypt about two years, measuring pyramids and poking around old ruins.

As we left the Scientific Observatory, neither of us spoke. The fate of our class had been unusual. That day we had seen them scattered to the four corners of the Earth and two on Mars. We did not think of them as meeting the various fates as we left our Alma Mater in 1931. Though Fate had truly played her part.
