24 M A 1) R O X O Class Will We, the first and last Class of 1924. anticipating that some of our number may come to an untimely end on the night of June 20. do hereby prepare a last W ill and Testament to he duly recorded with Mr. Nichols and kept by the Faculty of the Palo Alto Union High School. We, being sound in mind and body (at least we have been pronounced so after a strenuous four years’ treatment under such experts as Miss Preston, Mr. Mer- cer, Miss Clary, and Mr. Pay) will and bequeath the following: To the Juniors we leave our spic and span new class rooms, 503 and 504. with desks and walls unmarred by cubist carvings, (as yet).

I, Horace Albert Barker, leave my Titian locks and refined air in the custody of Karl Spaulding. I. Maurice Leoti Barnsley, fling my King Tut bob and independent air to Elizabeth Cramer, although she doesn’t need either. I, Harold Edwin Bernard, being unsound in mind and body, bequeath my vain attempts at being a lady-killer to Allan Lucy. 1, Mary Louise Besse, leave mv freckle cream to Doris Dorcy. with the hope that it will do her more good than it did me. I, Lemuel Perry Borden, feeling that my heart is rapidly beating itself out to
