LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT The Knave was something of a gourmand, and knew the Queen made perfectly delicious tarts every now and then: so, when he saw a plate of tarts cooling on the window sill of the Royal Kitchen, he hesitated just long enough to make sure no one was looking before he started eating one. How very tasty, he murmured, reaching for another. Really, the Queen has quite surpassed herself. The Knave was enjoying himself immensely, and, leaning back against the wall, continued eating. He ate six tarts-eight-ten-then suddenly stopped. I say. what has the Queen put in this tart? Why, it's a piece of paper, and must be important. Unfolding the paper, the Knave read the contents. as as as We, the Class of '49, being of sound bodies and soundproof minds. do hereby be- queath our most valued possessions to Chatham Hall and our successors. Patsy and Polly refuse to leave Buzzy and Rufus to anyone: but Eda generously leaves Merrie-Woode to the rest of The Campers. Shoemaker is very pleased to leave the original proofs of her Senior Picture to scare away Miss Taliaferro's mice. Maude, The Hipless Wonder , passes her title on to Peggy Johnson: and Edie Nalle gives her title of Miss Northeast Harbour to Betty Barker. Linda leaves her green jodhpurs to Clif, so Clif can start a collection: and Lucie leaves her plaid bathrobe to Cinnie C-ee, who desperately needs one. Also, in the line of fashion, Elizabeth Palmer leaves her canary outfit to Miss Curtis: Marty leaves her trap-door pajamas to Kay: and Edie Taylor. of course, leaves her famous petticoat to enhance future Willis performances. Penny, naturally, leaves her leadership, sense of responsibility, and coordination to the Gym Department: and Laurie and Rhonda, by the same token, leave their remarkable prowess on the athletic field to Gwathmey and MacVeagh. De gives a cry of Hey, fellas! and then leaves it to add to Roo's Gotcha! Fifi Barnes suddenly acquires E.velyn's Southern accent: and Sudie receives Lina's quizzical nature. Paula gives her horse a loving pat and passes it on to Povy: and Louise, with a final flourish, leaves her assembly orations to future Ciceros. The latest word in coiffures is that Jean Carrington leaves her locks to Zee Zant- zinger, and Tobi leaves her tresses to Hope Curtis. Among the more brilliant of our number, Polly Pack leaves her inventions to Marian to add to her discovery of the way to trisect an angle: and Foley leaves her brains to the Biology Lab. Ray leaves her newspaper to Carol jeanes: and Martha leaves her knowledge of horticulture to Tugie, to use on Sam and Fred. 23
