Answer: Advice is something that Seniors try to tell the Freshman and the Fresh- man takes it in one ear and lets it out at the other, therefore, We con- ceived the idea of writing this for the annual, as what one reads neither enters or leaves by the ears, and we are hoping by this means to make our advice more lasting. Of course it will be good advice. First and foremost, Freshy, stick to it, if you have to put glue in your seat to make you. Glue is inexpensive, you can get a bottle at Kress's for a dime, and it will surely make you stick fast. Algebra seems awful but, after all, it's not so bad if your brains can stand it. We Seniors had to takeit and we live to tell the tale. But French, phew! well we tell you, just get a nickel's worth of jaw- breakers and practice on them, and perhaps that will help you through. Oh! if only some long-suffering Senior had told us to do that, but they did not, and we have had to suffer in consequence. Spelling and Current Events, that's a mere item. We do not even get a point for them. But its all good for you, like our mother says when she wants us to eat oatmeal for breakfast. You will love history, if you swallow plenty of dates. Mr. Walker will certainly expect you to do more than swallow dates, you must be ready to speak them forth by the yard, when he wants a few facts himself. We call that an easy way of finding out things, don't you? Anyway, it is up to you to be there with the goods. Another thing thatys good for you is English, of course it is, isn't it your native language? You know that must be easy. Our advice to you Y-'IUCII ly-.S'1'.r

Ella Hayes presents her knowledge of American History to Effie Grady. Elizabeth Taylor releases claims on all boys and bequeaths their at- tention to whomsoever they may desire. Joe Hand releases his claim as a declaimer champion and bequeaths same to Cecil Marley. Taylor Johnson bequeaths his debating record to anyone in Farragut that will prove himself equal to his record. Errette Bevins releases his popularity with the ladies and bequeaths the same to anyone capable of filling his place. Maribel Widner bequeaths her French book to Mr. Colston in remem- brance of her. Robert Russell bequeaths all of his carelessness and indifference to Frances Russell. We nominate and appoint our energetic County Superintendent, W. W. Morris, to be the executor of this last will and request he may be exempt from giving any surety or sureties upon this official bond. In testimony whereof, we, the fourth year class of 1927, have to this, our last will and testament, subscribed our signatures and afixed our seal, this trenty-third day of March, one thousand nine hundred and twenty- SQVGII.

Why can't speech come altogether, instead of having so many parts? That is just one of the many questions that will assail you. Many will try to discourage you about Chemistry, but don't be dis- couraged, we love it. You get such delicious odors, and it is certainly interesting to try experiments, wondering all the time if you will be blown sky-high, or only have to hold your nose, because of a wonderful odor that smells as though it came from a place where brimstone is burning for- and ever, amen. Mr. Reaves beats any witch you ever heard of for mix- ing concoctions. If he would take the Senior's advice, he would be a for- tune teller, and stand over a boiling cauldrom, stirring up terrible mixtures. Now our last piece of advice to you Freshmen is: Do not get the swell- head just because you are entering High School. You will have many jars that are surely hard if you have sweeled heads. If you can only keep your head normal the jolts, that must of necessity come, will just be a part of the day's experience. Remember, a bit of fun, and a good hearty laugh will help out wonder- fully. Smile and the world smiles with you Kick and you kick alone, The cheerful grin, will let you in Where the kicker is never known. T'IA'l'H ly-Svtfvu
