I, Kenneth Alden, do will and bequeath my ability to sleep (anytime, anyplace) to Lvonne Cox, provided that she will make good use of this ability at once. I, Caroline Allen, do will and bequeath my shorthand ability to Eloise Salisbury, with the understanding that she study as hard to learn it as I have.

I, Martha Foster, do will and bequeath my ability to get along with the Senior boys to Carol Lee with the understanding that she does so next year. I, James Hendel, do will and bequeath by “one-armed” driving technique to Carl Ehresman provided that he keeps his nose to the grindstone, his feet on the ground, and both hands on the wheel.

I, Marlene Mitchell, do will and bequeath my ability to do “stage faints” to any Junior or Senior who may need the ability on or off stage, if they promise not to tell where they learned to act so well. I, Martin Moon, do will and bequeath my Abingdon friends to Rosalie Bivens if she will make as many good friends there as I have. I, Lois Myers, do will and bequeath my good Ellisville friends to Marilyn Ruhl if she promises to go with a different one every night, and to stay away from my interests! I, Elsie McVey, do will and bequeath my steady boy friends to Clarice Watson if she promises to stay with men as long as I have. I, Howard O’Hern, do will and bequeath my ability to get by with murder in classes to Danny Steach provided that he doesn’t get caught any more than fifteen times a day.
