In witness whereof, we. the class of 1919 of the Abington High School have hereunto set our hands and seal this 1.5th day of June, 1919. Signed, sealed and delivered by the Class of 1919 as their last will and testament in the presence of Miguel Angelico. Seraphic Wavers. Patricia Francesco Bouquet. DOROTHY I.ANGDON. Ulantlp ©ratimt The Class of '19 is met to-night to renew its past history and to prophesy the future. The speakers before me have not told all the truth; the Historian has related to you our history, which I am sure you will agree has shown all our virtues; our Poet has put his thoughts into verse and has shown you our doings as he would like them to have been; our Prophet has foretold the future as he sees it. All of these have told you things which many of you may doubt, but now I am going to tell you the truth. We are willing to admit that we have not been the the great and glorious class that some of our predecessors have boasted they were. All of us are by no means stars in Chemistry or Trig.; nevertheless we have held our own. We have demonstrated that fact by the part we have played in Athletics, social activities and in our literary achievements. Our Class has been small and we have not accomplished some of the things which we had hoped to accomplish. However, we feel that your class. Juniors, ought to do greater things with the aid of our new building and equipment. So with our best wishes for your success. I give you this mantle with the earnest desire that you may uphold the traditions of dear old Abington ; nd gain the goal which your ambition has set. and that, when you in turn give this mantle, you may have done as well as we. the Class of 1919. have done. LOUIS E. MULLIN.
