■'THE CLIO 19 12 We do give and bequeath to the Freshman class, our fondness for hard work, which although battered and worn by four years of hard usage, we still hope will suffice to bear them through all times of trial and crown them at last with the glory which we are proud to say has been ours. We do give and bequeath to the Faculty of the High School, in return for the many benefits received at their hands, the remembrance of our intellectuality and brilliancy, hoping that in days to come, when lesser classes shall try their patience and burden their lives, it may cheer and encourage them.

We do hereby appoint, as executor of this, our last will and testament, those of our classmates who have had the misfortune to fall behind, knowing that their affectionate remembrances of our illustrous class will incite them to most conscientiously attend to the carrying out of the terms of these, our last requests. In witness whereof we hereunto do set our hand and seal. THE CLASS OF NINETEEN TWELVE. Harwood Young. '12. 3
