Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-Eight—Scarlet and Green .. ■ ............. ' • • ■ ■' Ill . 1111111 ....... ........... M So for him in this Class History this place has been provided. Just once more, the honor students I feel that I must mention For intelligence and success have been our one intention At this time eleven is the sum So, how can people say that the Senior Class is dumb? Thus through A. H. S. sped the class of ‘28 Which feels fitfully prepared for the World’s open gate. Now that we are leaving, to the rest of you we say, That ever in our memories, Dear Old Auburn High will stay. —Ruth Cowell ‘28 Page Twenty-four

Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-Eight—Scarlet and Green Senior Class Will of '28 We, the class of 1928, being about to pass out of this sphere of education in full possession of a crammed mind, well-trained memory, and almost superhuman understanding, do make this our last will and testament hereby revoking and making void all former wills by us heretofore made. First, we; do direct that our funeral services shall be conducted by our friends and well-wishers, our superintendent and his all-wise and ever competent faculty, who have been our guardians for so long, only asking as the last injunction of the dying, that the funeral be carried on with all the dignity and pomp that our worth, our merits, our attainments, and our position as Seniors must certainly have deserved. As to such estate as has pleased the fates and our own strong hands and brains to win for us, we do dispose of the same as follows: We give and bequeath to the dear faculty who have been our instructor in all the wisdom of the ages, a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams. No longer need they lie awake through the long watches of the night to worry over our misdemeanors and shortcomings. We give and bequeath to our beloved superintendent, Prof. J. A. Jimerson, our deepest reverance and our heartiest gratitude. In an attempt at partial payment for all he has done for us during our High School life, we make over to him here and now a heavy mortgage on our future in the Great Unknown. We give and bequeath to the Auburn High School our tenderest memories of four happy years. Perhaps the happiest we may ever know and we voice the wish that for many, many years to come, may shelter just such carefree children as we, and may her influence be ever far reaching and continue to grow. Again we give and bequeath to our beloved faculty all the amazing knowledge and startling information that wa have furnished them from time to time in our various examination papers. Much of it we know must have been entirely new to them as it undoubtedly is to all teachers and students everywhere and as we feel such knowledge would throw a new light on the world of science and learning, the faculty is hereby duly authorized to impart such knowledge as they may feel the world is ready to receive. The following may seem triffling bequests but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things lavishly thrown away because we can no longer keep them but as valuable gifts to those who receive them and a continual reminder of the generosity of here displayed in our free and full bestowal: We also bequeath to our dear Mr. Jimerson, the balance in our class treasury to be used in buying a pair of rubber shoes for detective work. We feel sure he will be sure to need them in dealing with our successors. To Miss Marsh, our sympathy for the difficult task she had in coaching the “Junior Class Play.” To Miss Maddox, all the old “Whiz Bangs,” “College Humors,” “True Stories,” “Spice of Life,” etc., which she has enjoyed taking from our delectable Classmates. To Miss Roberts, all bugs, worms centipedes, and various other “Annuamals” left lying around by the class of 1928. To Miss Pumphrey, Elizabeth McKnight’s “Appetite.” To Mr. Higgins, all the sweet scented solutions, compounds, etc., left lying around the Chem. Physics labs, by “Jerry,” “Mike,” and “Chink.” Oh! we envy you Mr. Higgins! To Miss McCormick, Vernon Strole’s extra money bag to keep her diamonds in. Page T w enty - six
