r '-nj-r -- LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF THE SENIOR CLASS OF IQLQ We, the Seniors of Beech Grove High School, County of McLean State of Kentucky, in the year of our ord nineteen hundred and forty neine, after acquiring all the knowledge possible from this worthy institution, feel it our humble duty to make a last will and testament ot bequeat all our assests as a shining example and guiding light to those seniors yet to come. We the Senior Class leave our brains to the green freshemen, our dignified ways to the silly sophmores, and our places as Sen- iors to the Junior Class, with our best wishes to each class for many happy years to come. We leave to the faculty our thanks for the endless hours they have spent trying to pound a little knowledge into our empty heads. To our principal, Mr. Dodge, and our faithful sponsor, Nr. Ward, we bequeath our sincere appreciation for their patience and advice. To the janitor we leave all our empty coke bottles, our candy pap- ers and ice cream boxes. lo thecooks we leave all our unwashed dishes and uneaten food. We bequeath singly as follows: I, Phyllis Fulkerson, leave all my old book reports to Bobby Head, it is hoped they will keep him eligible. I, Alfred Ray Lloyd, leave my ability to say anything, any- time, anywher to anybody who can get away with it. I, Jimmie Stringer, have no intention of leaving anything be- hind. The mere memory of me will warm the hearts of all the stud- ents 1ong.after I am gone. I, Louise rayne, leave'my natural curly hair to mr. Ward, who was so sorry to lose his. I, lyde Albert Sandefur, leave my big feet to anyone who ne- eds a firm foundation. I, Edyth Galloway, leave my sophisticated swing to Joan Boyle as I think she will take care of it. I, Bobby Ball, leave my alluring voice to anyone who likes to fascinate women. I, derbert Moss, leave my girls in every port to the unmarried men of the navy. I, Mary Clark Payne, am forced to take all my assests with me for no one else would have them. I, Janet Thompson Moss, leave my ability to fasicinate the na- vy to Tida Crabrtee. I, Coleen McDaniel leave my friendly ways to all the girls of Peach Grove Uchool. I, Glenola Young, leave all my funny stories to Mr. uodge, who needs some new ones. I, Marjorie Harl, leave my special brand of laughter to any- one who has the lungs to stand it. I, Alice Johnson, leave my poetic ability to Patty Moss.

C , 1- GRUMBLER Before this Senior Class of 1914.9 become graduates, may we take this opportunity to inform the patrons and friends just how we have been treated, Kor shall we say mistreated! during the school year? The senior year, or at least we have been led to believe, is the happiest year of all. The seniors have privileges heretofore unthought ofg they are permitted to do pretty much as they please. This year, however there certainly were changes in the rules. The teachers treated us with little or no respect. One would think the faculty might have treated us with the respect we deserved but no, they assigned all kinds of difficult lessons AND expected us to prepare them. Mr. Kirkwood gave us algebra,unknowns to conquer with- out giving us an answer book to copy from. The exams we suffered through, not even freshmen could get the answers! Then there was the business of hookey playing. Just let a dignified senior turn his footsteps in another direction other than school on the school days and there was a fifteen page theme awaiting him upon his return. Now wasn't that disgusting? Can't the members of the faculty realize that traveling about the country side is educational? The freshmen! how many horrible things they have done. For example, freshmen walked in the halls along side of us instead of standing back at attention as we passed by. The sophomores were always cooking up something delicious in Home Ec. Class, but did they offer to share thier tid bits with us? No---we were forced to be content with just the smell. Our dear friends, the juniors, however, treated us half way, as befitted our station. They were educated enough to understand the meaning of the word Nsenlorn. Finally, the water in this institution would choke a horse, much less us. You have no doubt heard of uOld Faithfuln, our drinking founts are the exact replicas of NOld Facefu1.n Since we have passed through these years of misery we believe that school wasn't so bad after all, and that we could have been treated worse. So with a sigh, we leave this school to its teachers and students, for the future seniors to grumble at and to love. Marjorie June Harl H Q
