We, the members of the 4A Class, feel- ing that our days in the Eureka High School are numbered and realizing that the day of judgment is fast approaching when all Seniors must stand before the merit and demerit committee to declare whether their acts have been righteous or ungodly, and knowing, furthermore that our knowledge shall soon be tested in the firey brimstone of final examinations, do individually and collectively will and be- queath the following articles while we are yet insane, unsound, and indisposing in mind. In order that there shall be no dis- putes rising out of the changability of our minds, we hereby revoke, cancel, and de- clare null and void all other former wills made by us. We, the members of the 4A Class do will the Freshman Class a bottle of bleaching fluid with which to remove anything show- ing signs of green.

V This is the subject of the great book which Miss Sybil Look, with the aid of Miss Louise Ingalls is editing. However, because of her great devotion to and in- terest in her classmates of E. H. S., she sacrifices some of her time to give us a careful account of them and their work. To accomplish this end, she has publish- ed the following parts of the diary she wrote while in the Philippines. June 13, 1934: I arrived in Manilla todayg went to the Watkins' Hotel and I learned that Ruth is doing very well in the hotel business. Saw Mary Anderson, an elevator girl. Met Sanoma Jeffries, governor of the Is- lands, who said she had just heard from Nina Hoover, who is carrying on the work of her predecessor, Herbert Hoover. From her own account, it is evident that she will surpass him. June 24, 1934: Went down to see the La Mezcla arrive. Saw President Neall and her secretary, Mabel Johnson, accompanied by part of her cabinet. They t0ld me George Nor- gard invented this wonderful passenger aeroplane which rises without requiring any space for a take oii'. Carol Pentin is the pilot. I saw Garland Moorehead serving the ladies with cooling' drinks. Met Freda Ray, who is making cartoons for the American Magazine. Iufy 3, 1934: I saw Evelyn Wolff' and company in the Rowena Rolly's latest play. I also heard Frela Shields, world famous whis- tler, accompanied by Esther Milligan. Was told that Myrtle Swanson was teaching and it is rumored that she is engaged. Heard Zelma Delaney was a champion ten- nis player. Good for her! Read in the paper that Harold Jamieson was suing Ansil Rankin, the bootblack, for not black- ing' his shoes to a nicety. The law firm of Lillian Green and Pauline Green is handling this case. July 30, 1934: Chester Barnes and Herbert Newell, so they say, dive for pennies in the bay. Poor boys! I visited the Dissipation Sanitor- ium, where Mary Wahl and Julia Herman- son are recuperating from a strenuous social life. Florence Christie is a very good matron and everybody in the sani- torium likes her. Some one told me that the Roscoe Brothers were shaking down and picking up cocoanuts. Vivian Cortell and Agnes Corten own a very popular peanut stand. Sonoma told me Marion' Stuart, Secretary of the Treasury, Corrine Hilton, Secretary of War, and Violet Ab- fConcluded at end of Jokes on page 1091
