'- School Girl's Prophecy ?'..I. The Chronicle, in looking over it^ files of thirty-five years ago, compiling its column for "Looking Backward", ran across the following composition written by a young lady in the tenth-grade, of the Camden Graded school. She was fifteen years of age, at that time. She mentions the use of the torpedo boat as probably being useful in case of war, the airplane and the inyentiop of wireless telegraphy. They u-boats almost proved the undoing of Great Britain and France; the airplanes proved an affective weapon of war, and wiroless telegraphy?Jator converted into> * b radio?now brings daily news and amusement into millions of American homes. The young lady who V wrote this composition Is now the wife of one of Camden'3 most prom- ^ inent business men. Wonder if "-our o*; readers can guess who? "The Old Year that has just gone out has n\ade many sad and many wonderful changes j The farmers have had do much trouble with their 11 ; crops and all business-men have had a hard ^ime. 1 "At the first 6t the year Queen Victoria died and Edward VII came to the throne.
