CLASS WILL To whom it may concern: We, the class of 1946 of Ford High School, of the town of Wattsville, State of South Carolina, U. S. A., being about to ass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a crammed mind and an overworked memory, do make and publish this our last will and testament. We are arranging our worldly effects and consigning to our lawful and natural heirs all our worldly goods and chattels, leavin to each one the peculiar property seeming best fitted to his or her needs. We want it dis- tinctly understood Siat if an one of the beneficiaries of this will shall attempt to dispute or in any way change the items of this document, he, or she, must be immediately cut off wholly and entirely from any and all of its provisions. Item I. We give and bequeath to our beloved Supt. J. E. Ford our sincere and deepest gratitude for all he has done for us during our years at Ford High. We feel that he will have an interest in each victory, each suc- cless, and each honor that we may achieve in the arena of the world because it will be due to his faithful leader- s ip. Item II. We give and bequeath to the Faculty all the patience, forbearance, lon -suffering, and self-sacri- fice we ever possessed on the principle that To him that hath shall be given. We aio give to the Faculty all the amazing information and startling knowledge that we have furnished them from time to time in our various examination papers. These bits of wisdom may be new to the teachers, but if they see fit, they can use them for the enlightenment of the classes to come after us. Item III. We ive and bequeath to the junior Class the following list of entailed estates, to which we declare them the reaf and rightful successors: li. Our seats in the classroom. May they endeavor to fill them as faithfully, promptly, and advantageously as we ave. Znd. Our Senior wisdom and dignity. May they uphold it forever with seriousness and gravity in spite of their natural lightmindedness and irresponsibility. 3rd. Any stubs of pencils, cracker crumbs, and wads of gum we have left in our desks or in any likely or unlikely places. We also leave our echoes in the halls and our secret spots for love making. May they keep the latter a profound secret from the Faculty. Item IV. The following may seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worth- less things lavishly thrown away because we can no longer keep them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive t em and a constant reminder of the generosity of heart displayed in our free and full bestowal: lst.
