f Senior Class Will Last Will and Testament of Class '14 ' E, the Senior Class of 1914, not having much more time to spend in our school world, and being possessed of a sound mind, have concluded to draw up our last will and testament, bequeathing what few worldly possessions and special privileges, we happen to possess, of course you are aware of the fact that we are not rich in either of these, so do not be disappointed if your legacy does not come up to your expectation €J First, to the Juniors, we bequeath our seats, which are. as every one knows, the best seats in the High School. The windows on the left afford an excellent view of the city. To look out these windows, at times, has the tendency to break the monotomy of the same old routine of studies. We hope you take pride in keeping these seats free from marks and scratches, as they have been kept before. €J We also do bequeath you our laboratory and the paraphernalia stored therein. In connection with this we also bequeath you our laboratory privileges, which we hope you will not abuse. 1 To the High School in general we bequeath our mascot, which we desire, should remain in the same position on the piano in the assembly room. We hope that you cherish this emblem of esteem highly. €] For the Freshman Class we do bequeath our clock, which has served us so well for the past six years, on condition that you have it repaired and hang it in your room. We would advise, that in taking care of this dear old clock, you will be very careful and see that the janitor will wind it every Monday morning, and it would also please us very much if, once in a while, when inquiring the hour from this faithful doctor of time, you would think of us. the Senior Class of ’14. 1 To the Sophomores we bequeath our pledge of friendship, and all the wealth of love and blessing they should wish. We leave you our footsteps to follow in and we hope you may ever move onward keeping old ’14 standard in full view. JTo the Juniors we do bequeath our Geometry, Latin, German. Physics, etc., which we hope you will study diligently and strive to come up to the record that has been set by the proceeding class.
