THE SPECTATOR Last Will and Testament We, the Seniors of the Brimfield High School, of the town of Brimfield, of the age of four years, and being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament in the following manner: Upon the patient and progressive Juniors, of whom we are now guardians, we bestow the privilege of giving the most elaborate class party ever given and the ability of producing a book not to be excelled, and last, but far from least, our seats in the south side of the school room and our spare time in which we prepare our usual short Arithmetic lessons. To the all-studious and ever-complaining Sophomores, we bequeath our supreme good humor, and our knowledge of Grammar to the Sophomore Latin Class. To the Freshmen we do solemnly bequeath our ability to keep things lively during recitation periods and not to receive the same grade on examination. We, the individual members of the class, do hereby give and bequeath our personal effects in the following manner : I, Holland Learned, do give and bequeath my ability for taking short steps to Donald Hunt, and my ability as a Grammar student to Raymond Plummer. I, Julia E. Hindle, do give and bequeath my worn out pencil eraser to Mary Memler, and my quietness to Mary Crohan. I, Willard J. Weidner, do wish to bestow my oratorical ability on Walter Pacey, my knowledge of Physics on Caroline Blundy, and my foolishness and spare time in school on some deserving little Junior. I, Wilbert Best, do bestow my bashfulness in the presence oi girls on Willis Kingdon and my ability as a solo singer on Mildred Scott. I. Clarence Maher, do give and bequeath my poetical note books, numbering not more than one thousand to the school library, and my stand-in with the Grammar Room and Primary girls to Willis Kingdon, my rival. I, Mary Finnegan, wish to bestow my Latin pony on the Sophomore class in general and my ambition on John Mulvaney. 12
