27 Class Will We, the Senior Class of Bedford High School, in this last will and testament do bequeath the items to follow to our immediate suc- cessors, the Junior Class. We deem it wise to distribute our virtues to those friends whose needs they seem best to fit—to those who will make the best use of the talents that have served us so faithfully these four years. These are our decisions, at last arrived at through very deliberate consideration. We now dispose of the following: We give and bequeath to our teachers, who have so patiently in- structed us through these years, more peaceful and restful days. Many times we have Gaaced them to worry or to become upset by playing an unnecessary prank, disobeying a rule, or by not doing the required work. Seniors top the list for that sort of thing, and we are no exception. We give and bequath to our principal, Mr. Borden, our deepest greece and devotion. May it be his joy to see each of us overcome | obstacles and achieve great success. We give and bequeath to Bedford High School as a whole our loyal spirit that the ones who follow may feel the same patriotic pride that we have experienced. We give and bequeath to the War Bulletin editor and staff all the events to come that enter our lives that they may furnish plenty of news to those who are away from home. We give and bequeath to the Junior Class as a whole Julia Dooley’s and Ann Atrlen’s knowledge with the hope that the class may be able to use it as well as they did. The following may seem but trivial bequests, but we hope that they may prove enable assets to those who receive them. May they is a continual reminder of the generosity displayed in our free and ull bestowal. i lo-our sponsors, Miss Patterson and Miss Bibb, our profound admiration as individuals as well as a group. 2. ‘To presidents of future Senior Classes, Paul Overstreet’s abil- ity to fill this office so efficiently.
