Class Will E, the class of nineteen twenty-three realizing our age and intelli- gence, have been waiting for the opportunity to make our will and testament. Up to this time we have been unable to concentrate our mental forces upon anything very definite. To-day with a book report staring us in the face and being almost serious we feel capable on this momentous occasion of disposing of our worthless and unworldly possessions, goods and what not. To the school in general, the world and l1is wife we leave the janitor. the magnificent scenery and the clinging terra firma. To the forth-coming Senior class we will our dignified presence in assembly. To the ascending Junior class we bequeath our pleasing dispositions and good looks. ' To the future Sophomores we leave our strong contempt for thc Freshmen. To the little Freshies that aren't we bestow our motto Climb, INDIYIDUALLY: I, Louise De Witt, having just arrived through the window do hereby will my few possessions. First to Marion Bassett, my surplus avoirdupois. Second, to Erna Heggland, my alias Jumbo, and hope that it will stay by her as it has by me. Third to Josie Gilstrap, my flute like voice and hope that she will profit by it. And lastly to Lloyd Mac- aulay my ability to use powder and play baseball. 1, Archie Clausnitzer, having just returned from a successful morn- ing of fishing do hereby will my basketball shoes to the person who stole them.

Also to Leona Mezger I bequeath my locker for she nses it more than I do anyway and enjoys fooling with the combination. I, Louise Mct'arton, living up to my- Irish disposition, feel that I must now make up my mind to give away all that I own and some that I don't. To Elinore Van Fossen, I leave my ability to start an argu- ment with anyone, anywhere, on any subject, hoping that she will always come out on top. To Esther Ferguson I waive all rights to my bobbed hair as I am now so dignified I must begin learning the art of hair pins. Third, I will my ballet dresses to Fay Mctlonnell feeling Te n
