Page Twenty-seven Class W ill o We, the class of June, 1924, do solemnly ask that you hear our last will and testament. It has been our desire to be fair in our gifts and we hope that they will be received in the same cheerful manner in which they are given. We wish to express our hearty appreciation to our Principal for his support both in our hardships and pleasures and leave our best wishes for his success in the future. We hope that the high school will progress in the years to come as it has in its first. To those remaining the class bequeaths the following qualities of its mem- bers: To Jean Brebner the vamping ways of Constance Adams. To any Latin student fortunate enough to make them the good Latin marks of Dorothy Churn. To Mahlon Brown the extra inches of Lawrence Baines. To Iris Robertson the dignity of Sallic Massey. To George Bergh the good disposition of John Harris. To Sarah Floyd the rosy cheeks of Ruth Farnham. To any aspiring young artist the ability in that line of Lawrence Lehmann. To Helen Hobbs the giggling of Henna Childress. To John Petty the studiousness of Frank Davis. Ruth Higbie, Class Will, ’24.

Page Twenty-six Warwick After reading this letter, I thought of the rest of that good old class of ’24. The morning paper announced that Lawrence Lehmann held the title of being the World’s champion heavy-weight boxer. As for Lawrence Baines, I think he enjoys being manager of a large circus concern, as I saw a poster advertising an annual show of Baines Brothers Circus in this city next week. My memory goes back to the old high school days and especially the year of ’24. Little did we know then the place we would fill in life, as each one of us in our young fanciful minds had pictured a different course from the ones we have fol- lowed. But after all our one aim in life was to succeed and to be of some use to the world, and I feel that each of us is living a life of service to others. Ruth Farnham, Class Prophet, ’24. Favorite Sayings Around Scliool Don’t be silly! Don’t let that get out! I’ve never seen such a place for interruptions. Cut your rascality. Go long, sonny you ain’t talking to me! Imogene!

(Duke) You most squeezed a tear that time! How many do you have in captivity? Very ecclesiastical looking! Don’t be lazy! I’m shelabrating! That’ll be extra! That’s all right, kid. See me after school! You know how ’tis! That ain’t nice! You ain’t right! Sure, sure, sure! Make Lawrence give me my compact. You see how ’tis! I suppose so. That’ll be all right!
