take much pleasure in leaving her this ring. XV. To Alfred Shelton, our star touch center in basket ball, we leave an “A” sweater, hoping to encourage him in that line. XVI. To Eloise Kennedy, our tennis champion, we leave an “A.” We are very sorry not to be able to provide her with a sweater also, but those we have in our pos¬ session we found were too large. XVII. To Marguerite Jewell, we leave our one and only class pet. It must have fresh air and exercise every morning, besides any additional breath of air it might be able to get through the day. This rat we give to Mar¬ guerite to add to her choice collection and trust it will prosper under her care. XVIII. To the members of the Basketball Team we leave a supply of button hooks, hoping that next year they may find material for a new and better yell than “Who’s got a button hook?” XIX. To the Juniors, we leave row viii., seats 1-14, to be well cared for and kept spotless and immaculate as in the past. The floor surrounding them we also leave to their supervision. XX. To the Sophs, we leave our old bank book in the hope that it may be of use in their business dealings with a few young men to be used at their next class party. XXL. To the Freshmen, we leave a box of rattles and toys which are, we think, appropriate articles. We hereby nominate and appoint Mr. Perrien of the town of Sebastopol, county of Sonoma, state of Cali¬ fornia, the executor of this, our last will and testament, and hereby revoke all former wills made by us. IN WITNESS.WHEREOF, we have hereunto set our hand and seal this 16th day of June, in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Eleven. CLASS 1911 (Seal) Signed, Sealed and Delivered in the presence of BERNARD WILKIE PAUL WOOLSEY

On Saturday evening, May 13, under the spreading live oaks in the school campus, the pupils of Analy Union High School presented Shakespeare’s outdoor play, “As You Like It.” The first blast of the trumpet occurred at 8:45 and the final minuet with the piano playing two hundred feet away in the schoolroom closed at 10:39. The evening was a perfect one, the moon rose overhead with its mild benediction, the electric lights among the trees and the head lights of four automobiles shining upon the stage, all blended with the magnificent costumes to make a perfect harmony. The young people all sustained their parts well. “Miss Blanche Moran, as the fair Rosalind, completely captivated the audience. Her intelligent interpretations of this difficult role is highly commendable, and so thor¬ ough was her conception of the heroine that any announce¬ ment of her apoearance in future productions will always be greeted with pleasure. Touchstone, so ably imperson¬ ated by Charles Newell, was the hit of the evening and his every appearance was t he signal for mirth.”—From the Sebastopol Times. Among others who did unusually well were Marguerite Jewell, Carl Kennedy and Harold Wiggins. The general sentiment has been expressed that no other play has ever been given in this community equal in standard and execution. The young people should feel proud of their effort, which was thoroughly enjoyed throughout. Miss Tracy, who was responsible for their training, has won the gratitude of the entire school. The Pneus predicts that once each year the pupils of the high school will present a drama equal in character and as ar¬ tistic in setting. To study such a play is elevating and a very valuable training. The cast of characters was Rosaline, Blanche Moran; Celia, Marguerite Jewell; Audrey, Arelia Payne; Phoebe, Evelyn Sweetnam; Or¬ lando, Carl Kenendy; Jacques, Adam, and Duke Frederic, Harold Wiggins; Banished Duke, Alfred Shelton; Sylvius, Lewis Johnson; First Lord, Tom Street; Dennis. Corin, Ralph Wiggins; William, Charles, Bert Bower; LeBeau, Joe Williamson; Oliver, Harry Fuller; Lords, Paul Wool- sey, Clarence Bower, Moore Sweetnam, Grant Wren, Warren Woolsey.
