Uhr Qlilaxinkurkn The Class Will B E ,5 C, E, the class of l22, being still of sound mind, even after our last years' of Q' trials and tribulations, in order that the remaining student body may Ji- be fully aware of our self recognized superior merit and significance and having studied in the said institution for an unlimited number of years, fg.g,4.Q1 feel it our highest and most sacred duty to bequeath our talents to our ff 'M younger and more unfortunate schoolmates, Who, we feel sure, will need them all for several years to come. To the Freshmen we leave a large supply of high-chairs and go-carts, in order that they may be able to see the top of the study-hall platform. To the dignified Sophomores we leave our superfluous amount of knowledge and good looks in hopes that they will use these noble assets to the best advantage. To the Junior Class, who in the near future will take our place, we leave our very best wishes for a bright and happy New Year! To every member of the faculty We leave our most sincere thanks and apprecia- tion for the patience and pains in bringing us through our four years of readin', writin' 'n arithmetic'. VVe did not realize, as we do now, the reasons for, the value of their disciplinary methods, and in our last words we Want to thank them sincerely.

Graham to talk on every- thing but the subject to the future Civics Class. I, Frances Marsh, bequeath my brilliant gift of gab to lllerle Crabb-he sure needs it.
