THE BLACK AND GOLD CIEIIIQASS WILL by B . O'BRIEN During our life we h-ave seen many things come to their end. Now on t-he 28th d-ay of June, we see that the members of the Grade XI of 1940, no longer exist as a class, but are now about to be- come separate members of this war-torn world. When a person is nearing his end, he generally makes out a will, if he has any- thing to will, and leaves his pos- sessions to his friends. When we walk out of this theatre our school days will be over, so as a last act we, the Graduates of 1940, have drawn up this will. This is the last will and testa- ment of t-he Grade XI students of 1940 of the Dalhousie Superior School, Dalhousie, New Brunswick. We, hereby appoint Grade X to be the successors to our teacher, Mr. Scott, to our desks, which number eleven, to our class-room whose size resembles that of a t-wo by four . This said change to take place on Sept. 6th, 1940. Also, we bequeath to the said class, this over-size pencil, made by Don Parker, a member of our class, on which there is written the autographs of -all the members of the Grade XI class. This pencll to be placed in the Grade XI room, so that the next. year's class may see it, and be reminded that they are supposed to graduate at the end of the term. And on being remnded of this. they might be more apt to study before it is too late. To Grade I of the Dalhousie Superior School, we give, devise and bequeath this letter which contains some very useful infor- mation. The address of which states, To Grade I of the Dal- housie Superior School -How to get out of school i'i ten easy - y93I'S . Dur'ug the fine spent in High School, we often bumped up against the Campbellton High School Football Team, but they always see-med to bump us-a little bit harder and farther than we bumped them. So to the remain- ing boys in our High School we give, devise, bequeath and every- thing else, the task of defeating this team th-at so far hasbeaten us. Also we could not and would not will you the kicks and bruises th-at we gotg but I am afraid the Camp-

W I THE BLACK AND GOLD GEIIEQASS WILL bellton boys do not feel the same way. To the remaining students of the High School, Helen would like to divide her French knowledge among them all. But Miss Doucet says you c-annot divide a minus quantity. Irene Swinnard bequeaths her desk to Bennie LeC1aireg the rea- son she s-ays is. just for old times sake, and also for Bennie's ....... And not to be outdone, Ernest MacKay, leaves his desk to the lVliller Tw,ns. But as there is only one desk and two of them. he adds First come, first seated. In the editing of our Year Book, we increased our knowledge of certain things, made a few mis- takes, but in the end we Were much the better for it. As a re- sult of all this the editors have put their mistakes, some infornaa- tion, a little advice, on paper. To the Editorial Staff of 1941, WC give this information and we hope it will be some use to them. To the merchants of the town, to the Internation P-aper Company, to the pupils of Grade IX and X, we give our utmost thanks. To Mrs. M. Carty, Regent of the I.0.D.E., we give the bal-ance of the money from our Year Book, if anyg this money to be used in the purchasing of war-blankets. And last but not least, to Mr. Scott, we give the honor of bring- ing to a total of forty-two, the numbers of pupLls whp have gra- duated under his guidance, since he came to Dalhousie in 1935. Also, the Graduates of 1940 wish you to accept on behalf of Wilma Lou , as she is known by the school pupils, this small gift, so that in the years to come, she :ray be able to remind her father that he o-nce taught a smart group of pupils known as the Class of 1940. In Witness whereof we have hereunto ,set our hand and seal, this twenty-eighth day of June, in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and forty. BLAKE O'BRIEN '40 i
