The people do not set in one place or have a place bought and not have dilferent place to set, but they all set down where they want to unless the seat is taken. They sing and go to different class rooms and after that they hear the sermon, and go home however they came. If they came in an automobile, they go home in it. lf they walked, why they walk unless they ride. CLASS WILL This being the last will and testament of the Freshmen Class of '23 we do hereby bequeath, grant and convey to .our successors to-wit: The prospective Freshmen Class both real and imaginary properties. consisting of: One antiquated clock, which with little help is most generally on per-Lincoln Time. One window-sillhin Room 7 where space is adequate to discharge your excess bag- gage, but means lacking to hnd it again. One blackboard in Room 7 where information more or less can be obtained. One blackfoard in the Assembly room, where portraits of the faculty can be seen any day. One table in the Assembly where remnants of- magazines may be found which render valuable services to those stranded on Monday without a Current Event. One antique piano, which serves the purpose. XYaves of atmospheric disturbances when a teacher leaves the Assembly during a study period. One Mirror in Room 8 which is very popular, much to Mr. Shull's distress. Our good will and affection do -we. the Lincoln Freshmen Class of '23 bequeath to our Principal and teachers, to keep forever. --H. I. R., '26. DO YOU REMEMBER THE CLASS OF '26?
