Contrary to usual procedure in such cases and only on the urgent request of my noble client, '35, have I called you together, before her death to hear her will and to receive her gifts. I dread to tell you, but be calm. The doctor is here ready to revive all fainting ones, but he cannot at- tend too many. Here is my secret, keep it welll A consultation of doctors was called on Tuesday, May 28, doctors never known to fail in their prog- nostications. They have announced that on Thursday, June 13th, at the sale of the first June issue, '35 must die. THE WILL We, the StaE of thirty-five, being about to leave this sphere in full possession of a sound mind, memory and understanding, do make and publish this our last will and testa- ment, hereby making void and re- voking all former wills by us at any time heretofore made. And first, we do direct that our funeral services shall be conducted by our friends and we'll-wishers, the faculty, only enjoining that the funeral be carried on with all the dignity and pomp our situation in the school scale has merited. As to such estate as it has pleased the fates and our strong arms to give us, we do dispose of the same as follows, viz: Item: Our most distinguished and dignified editor, Mr. Donald E. Mat- thews, gives and bequeaths to the editor-in-chief of the '36 Staff, Mr. Wildai James, who is as yet inex- perienced in editorship, the worry and anxiety which have been his this past year. He wills to the same, his many troubles. N-or can Mr. Matthews enjoy the authority and bossiness which a job such as he holds affords all true editors, so these too he bequeaths to Mr. James. In As upright as Aline Travers As silent as Helen Frances Dunnock As droll as Reginald Brooks As painstaking as Hazel Mullennax As mild as Grace Lowe As pi-issy as Olive Cantwell As sober as Herbert Dail As good a driver as Paul Richardson As good a. librarian as Irving Vin- cent As good a farmer as Steele Webster fond of Mutts as Annalie Bro- hawn As As boy-crazy as Anrethia Moore As jealous as Lorraine Robbins As cute as Donald Matthews additon to these he leaves behind his most remarkable composition ability along with the single note- book and fillers, the one locker, the pencil which has only been sharpen- ed once, a list of ads and some back issues of the Hottentot, which are very useful Cor otherwisej to the teachers, and may be found in the library. Mr. Matthews also wills to Mr. James a cut of the High School. Item: Our most diligent, as well as brilliant assistant-editor, Mr. Bil- ly Wells, gives and bequeaths to Miss Katherine Robbins of the '36 Staff of this outstanding paper his remarkable ability in bookkeeping and telling others what to do and when to do it. We all do sincerely hope, Katherine, that you will take good care of these talents which are hereafter to be yours to the great sorrow of Mr. Wells, who dies with the paper's present Senior Staff. Item: Miss Lillian Cantwell and sixty pound literary editor, Miss Ma- rie Kuhn, who has unjustly been called Chubby leaves to Miss Al- ice Collins her dictionary from whence cometh her numerous words. She hopes that Miss Collins may have as much success in using it as she has had. Item: Miss Llllian Cantwell and Miss Mildred Tyler, those two dark skinned, brown-eyed girls from the commercial section, do give and be- queath to their successors their abil- ity for getting ads for the school paper from the local business men. Perhaps if you Juniors will approach these young ladies they will tell you their method. After all you must remember it is the ads that keep our paper from sinking. Item: Miss Jane Cunningham gives and bequeaths her well-known Winchellisms to whomever has a nose for news, all ear for eavesdrop- ping, and an eye for scandal. U Item: Miss Fannie Mowbray, the little girl, bequeaths to her succes- sor her checkbook. I think Miss Mowbray will tell you that this is not for personal use. She will also tell you that she has not even made out one check yet. Have you, Fan- nie QFannie answers yes.j Item: We give and bequeath to the artists of your staff, all the suc- cess and homage which was our own talented artist's, whom everybody knows as Tommy Cannon. We hope he will work as hard and as willingly for you as Mr. Cannon has worked for the success of our paper. Item: Miss Louise Mitchell, she of the red hair fame, gives and be- queaths all the moans and groans and all the trouble she has had in writing articles for the Hottentot. She has done her duty and she has her reward. At last she is retired. No, 11ot on a pension, on a chair. Item: The subjoined list will be recognized as entailed estates to which we do declare the Class of '36 the real and rightful successors. First: The faculty advisers, Miss Doenges and Miss Dunn, to whom as members of the Junior Staff, '36 has not been unknown. May they be as fond of the teachers next year as they have been this. Let every mem- ber of the Hottentot Staff of '36- show his or her gratitude for the gift by being prompt in asking the advice of these two teachers. Second: Mr. Cromwell's articles which eve1'y reader reads so care- fully and so thoroughly. We hope Mr. Cromwell will cooperate with the Staf of '36 as he did with the Staff of '35, I will say no more, but if there is anyone who wishes to know if Mr. Cromwell's cooperation was great or small, he must ask him. I make no more comments. How the list lengthens, next come the Senior StaE privileged with the principal's permission-to well un- derstood to be detailed, but I'll men- tion a few such as being excused to do Hottentot Work , having a mar- velous banquet such as this and a. dance as well, and numerous others. Besides these enforced gifts we leave, not of necessity but of our own free will, our blessing and a. pledge of friendship and cooperation from henceforth, in case we fool the doctors. All the rest and residue of our propc-r.y, whatsoever and whereso- ever, of what nature, kind and qual- ity socver it may be, and not herein before disposed of after paying our debts and funeral expenses, we give and bequeath to our principal, for his use and benefit absolutely. And we do hereby constitute and appoint the said Principal sole executor of this, our last will and testament. In witness Wherefore, We, the Staff of Thirty-Five, the testators, have to this our will, written on parchment, set our hand and seal this twenty-ninth day of May, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and thirty-five. BEHOLD OUR ATHLETES CCo-ntinued from page ll, Col. 41 captain, Billy Wells, Robert Bran- nock. Second row: Alan Wilkinson, Wildai James, William Waller and George Robinson. Donald Matthews was absent when this picture was taken. Such athletes are not found every day, everywhere, and their accom- plishments should be fully appre- ciated. M' ,

T I think a few dancing lessons might surprise Nathan Pritchett. G0 to the High Spot some night and see if I'm right. . Every time Ruth Richardson sees a friend it is always How ya doin' U. For a half-pint Leslie Thomas can chew gum the loudest of any boy I have ever seen. Since Ed has left, Louise 'Orem seems rather downcast. ' Lillian Cantwellls affections are varying. First' it is a Mr. Cox, then a M1'. McQuillen. Why does Junie Robertson go about singing Things Have Been So Different? I have been wondering why Jane Cunningham joined the Country Club. . James Windsor liked Washington so well he got left, accidentally on purpose. On Saturday nights, one can find Grace Lowe near the Arcade Thea- ter where a green Ford sedan is usu- ally parked. Reginald Brooks hates to be teased about a girl. I'll bet he has one though! Henry Linthicum has so many girls on a string he doesn't know which Way to turn without bumping into one. Catherine Todd certainly thinks the name of Harold is a nice one. Speed Wells claims he is a mis- pgynist. QTU my dumb friends, it means a woman-haterj. Donald Spedden and Herbert Dail are so quiet fly, that I have- n't a word to say about them. I will be quiet too! ! ! Frances Price is so noisy that as soon as she is a block from school everybody stuffs their ears. Tommy Cannon likes a girl in school an awful lot, but he won't let me in on his secret. QI think it is Arline, but don't tell anybodyj. - Anna Truitt has her own idea about Cooks , I have heard she jsihard to please, but she is satisfied with the present one. - ,Annalie Brohawn likes Mutts.

When we started our course we were rath- er excited over the prospect of a school bank. Miss Dunn, the cash- ier, permitted us to deposit anything from a penny up. Then came Christ- mas bringing the need for extra money to buy gifts for our f1'iends but our problems were solved be- cause we had saved in our school bank. Deposits were made regularly and recently a boy drew out his account which amounted to S20.00. Another boy has saved fifty cents weekly. By saving their pennies, nickels, and dimes these boys and the other mem- bers of the class have dollars now instead of cents. With these savings we will be able to take a nice camp- ing trip during vacation, buy some new clothes, or deposit it in a bank where it will earn us interest. Take a tip from us and save your pennies, nickels, and dimes, and soon they will be dollars. As the result of our thrift and saving we have saved over S300.00. We wish to extend our greatest thinks to Miss Dunn for proving through our school bank that saving pays, for without this ability to save we could never become good busi- ness men and women. Ben Newcomb is getting old- fashioned. His latest hobby is square dancing. I hope Ann Bryan gets her dip- loma. She is looking very studious these days. Ellsworth Tilman likes to play Monkey in class. Bill Vickers seems to like one of the Jones girls. Naomi is the first name. Russell McCarter goes riding al- most evcry night. A girl in his class accompanies him almost every night, too. Fred Jones, don't you know you polish brass if caught hooking? Bet- ter be careful. I can't think of a bit of scandal for Byrn Phelps. He is a newcomer in this high school and I don't know his weakness. What club will you join this sum- mer, Tom1ny Meredithl? You seem to belong to nearly all of them now: Is it the pretty little pins you like? William Rumbley certainly had a sunburn from field day. Wonder where he was staring so intently he didn't notice the sun's heat? TWENTY YEARS BACK Turn the pages of time back just twenty. years-1915. As we look over the programme for that year de- noting the Commencement exercises held at the Grand Opera House we sec listed the names of a class num- bering thirty-one. Those of the class of 1935 are probably now wondering what will be said of them twenty years from now. We may all prophesy but af- ter all who knows the fate of each of his class members? For that rea- son we thought it would be a pleas- ant check up to see what has be- fallen the members of the '15 class. To those who were the officers of the class we turn first: Milton Spry Andrews, president of the class, is a minister residing in Denton, Maryland. George Dewey Holder, vice-presi- dent, is a prominent business man of our city, one of the owners of the town's best stationery stores. Mary Elizabeth Gray, secretary, is Mrs. Ben Robbins of this city. Harold Wilson Dail, treasurer, is living in New York City. This completes the list of those who were nnamed as the officers, let us now glance over the class roll. Eva Conway has not changed or added a Mrs. to her name, she is liv- ing with her parents in Cambridge. Mary Agnes Dunn, sister of Miss Nora Dunn, is deceased. Mary' Catherine Davis is now Mrs. Wallace Flowers. She lives in Salis- bury but does not forget to visit Cambridge quite frequently. Marguerite Grace Gillis has be- come Mrs. Howard Robbins of Cam- bridge. Frances Hilda Harrington lives in Baltimore. She is now Mrs. Guy Bryan. Helen Elizabeth Hastings is work- ing for Nathan's Furniture Store. Roland Henry Hoge lives in Cam- b1'idge and is connected with Dorset Laundry. Mary Hearn is now Mrs. Shryock and lives in Baltimore. , Ruth Hearn is now Mrs. Hobart Phillips of Cambridge. Edwin C. Hopkins, Jr., is now one of the directors of Phillips Packing Company. Evelyn Elizabeth Johnson, who was valedictorian of her class, has not given up studics for she is now an elementary supervisor of schools in Dorchester County. ,Marguerite Mildred Kirwan is now in the teaching profession at Cripo. Nellie Marion Marshall is now em- ployed in IVashington. Alice Meredith is also employed i11 Wasllingtoll. QC'ontinucd to page 11, Col. 25 MEMOIRS FROM . WASHINGTON Shortly after. six o'c1ock on April 12, two bus loads of students, chap- eroned by Mr. Andrews, Mr. Koch and Mis Linthicum, left Cambridge to visit Washington. Our trip up was, as they say, an uneventful one. Upon Washington we drove buildings looking for blossoms, which were storm a few days before had played havoc with the blossoms. arriving in around the the cherry not. The The first pl-ace we visited was the Lincoln Memorial. After having gazed upon the statue of Honest Abe , some of dur party felt a de- sire to drop in on the President at the White House. Mr. Koch obtained permission for us to see several rooms in the White House not open to She general pub- lic, the Blue Room, the Green Room and the Dining Roomiqf ' VVe went from tl1e White House to the Capitol. There, for ten cents apiece, we secured guides who show- cd us through the building. After the tour of inspection a number of us wished to climb to the dome, a mere several hundred steps. All went very well until sev- eral of us in coming down slightly confused the stairways and lauded out the back door of the capitol. As soon as the crowd visited the five and ten cent stores we headed for tl1e museums. The first was the Art Gallery. We went from there to the National Historical Museum and then to the Smithsonian Insti- tute. To tell of any of the intere t- ing things in these places is to slight equally important ones. Next on our list came the Library of Congress, by far the most beauti- ful building, inside, of any we went through. The beauty of the Con- gressional Library was quite a shock to a great many of us, who thought all libra1'ies were just libraries and looked like the Dorchester County Public Library. The last place we graced with our presence before we turned toward Cambridge was the new Folger Shakespearean Library. The most interesting thing to us was the rep- lica of .1 Shakespearean theatre. As we made ready to leave We discovered that two of our worthy brothers, James Windsor and Ar- thur Brooks, l1,1d completely disap- peared. Although Mr. Andrews and Mr. Koch looked for them, they could not be found. The trip home was not nearly so uneventful as the one going for Mary Alice' Cronigter entertained us all thefway. .3 ' Q lla, 6 ' .
