TO the Sophomore class we will the information that we are going to put into our memories a mental picture of a bouquet of red-headetl athletes, such as Tolbert Brmvn, John Linch, Paul Allen and hirkett Vann. We submit to them a plea to make the tire of enthusiasm in Athletics as red as their hair. Also, we hereby leave our thanks to the Snphmnore girls. since the delightful aroma of syrup candy or corn beef and cabbage euming to us from their home economics Classes has made us grow tender-hearte:l through wistfulness. Item VII. Upon the Freshman boys we confer great quantities of long trousers and socks. In order that the girls also may appear in more growny attire, we will them shorter dresses. and shears With which to bob their hair. '1 hey have been little girls long enough. Item VIII. The president of the Senior class, C. T. Cooper. wishes to donate to the next occupant of his position. a pair of rubber shoes. 21 'ain- coat. and a large black umbrella. that he or she may he better equipped to keep out of the mire of such extreme popularity and at the same time ward off all uncomfortable SliOVVCI'S of honors or perhaps the beaming tays of the lime-light. Item IX.

Last lDill and Testament x We. the Senior Class of the Dothan High School, of the year nineteen hundred twenty-two, perceiving that the end of our high school career is approaching and deeming it wise. and altogether fitting and proper that we leave our numerous hard-earned possessions to those who need them and to those who in due course of time will attain and occupy our positions. do hereby make and proclaim this our last will and testament, revoking all pre- vious wills, bequests. or devices of any nature by us made. Item I. To the D. H. S. we do leave our deepest love, respect and loyalty, together with all the old papers. chewing gum wrappers, itinerant hair pins, pencil stubs, eten that. out of pure love of associations with the D.

We yield with unwilling hearts our nu- merous Senior privileges. and we hope that the Juniors will not have as much trouble as we did in retaining such privileges.
