mmMMmaMBgwmnmaasz J ast Will and Testament of the Qlass 0 1926 We, the graduating class of Central Junior High School, being of sound mind and memory, do hereby publish this, our last will and testament, to-wit: 1. To Mr. Young, we bequeath one quart of Wonder ' s Way hair tonic, which we think will be needed, if the kiddies continue to roller skate around the new building, and to lose their locker keys. 2. To Miss Root and Miss Duncan, we bequeath one large megaphone not less than ten feet in circumference so that they may be able to make their classes hear. 3. To Francis Tiffany, we bequeath the presidency of the United States on the Popular ticket as soon as that office is vacated by President Coolidge. 4. To each of our orators, Elizabeth Hale, Martha McNeal, Doris Burns, DeWitt Gilpin, Ella Giarraputo, we bequeath a gold Carnegie medal as a reward for bravery shown in undertaking the Northern Pacific Oratorical Contest. 5. To the incoming freshmen, we will and bequeath our drinking fountains full of distilled water, and our unlimited supply of sunshine about the building — as green things need water and sunshine to grow. 6. To Mrs. Holiday, we leave sixteen barrels of whipped cream, hoping the in- coming classes will be provided with enough. We never were. 7. To the English II classes, we bequeath the right to do As You Like It. 8. To Miss Denny of eighth hour study hall fame, we leave our sympathy and admiration. She doesn ' t do it because she likes to. 9. To our faithful custodians and janitors, we leave our candy wrappers, gum papers, and finger prints, which may be found in any part of the building. 10. To the office force, we bequeath one gross of the best lead pencils for making out tardy admits on snowy mornings. 11. To the boys, we bequeath the use of the ramps next year. Turn about is fair play. 12. To the English teachers, we bequeath all our old essays, themes, and test papers with which to make a big bonfire to keep warm the spirit of Central Junior High School. 13. To Miss McCrea, Miss Duncan, and Miss Hatch, we bequeath the privilege of allowing the other teachers the use of their matrimonial bureau. 15. To our beloved faculty, we bequeath sound slumber, and peaceful dreams. They have done their duty and must have their reward. 16. Lastly, to Mr. Evans and Mr. Jordan, manager of the 1926 Ceejay, we do affectionately bequeath shoe leather, midnight oil, gasoline, and nerve tonic, as partial payment for their untiring efforts on this production. As executors of this last will and testament, we hereby appoint Mr. King, Miss Gilday, Mr. Douthitt. In witness whereof we herewith set our hands and seal this first day of May, 1926.
