The Philomath Page Twenty-eight future student who might be capable of approaching this record. I, Al Polley, leave to any Maine-iac a few hints on how to drive from Portland, starting at 6:30 A.M. Monday and arriv- ing in time for school the same day, and also how to make up the two full nights of lost sleep by the end of the fifth period. I, St. Sleczkowski, leave to Vera Smith my honored but frequently misspelled name, in the hope that she will enjoy the unique title which I am tired of keeping in its original form because of the un- artistic abbreviations given to it by my illiterate and ignorant classmate Polley. I, Nat Gilmore, leave to Philip Ander- son my art of getting Mr. Barham to re- peat a question, including a guarantee that nine out of ten times it won ' t work. I, Bill Robbins, leave the true friend- ship of one whose esteem I hold exceed- ingly high and that is none other than my dear neighbor Harold Anderson to my in- coming kid brother, in the hope that the hinges of this true friendship will never go rusty. I, Peter Lembo, leave to Christy Shee- hy my slight knowledge of philosophy, in the hope that he may be able to think up as many snappy comebacks to embar- rassing questions as I have. I, Warren Crockwell, leave to the Phys- ics department several more parts of my Ford. I found after donating the fly- wheel, a carburetor and two timers that it ran so well that I have finally decided to give up my engine in the hope that dear old Lizzie will run just as well up hill as she does down. I, Roger Clapp, bequeath to next year ' s inhabitants of Room 25 all the parts of the adding machine that are left, and hope that they will treat the poor old thing with due consideration and respect. In witness, whereof, we the illustrious Class of Nineteen Thirty-One, through our crooked and unduly authorized attor- ney, Wilhelm Bellmaus von Hastingsburg, do set out hands, clean and otherwise, affix our seal, and subscribe our signature on this 17th day of June in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirty-One and of the Eighteenth Amendment the fourteenth. God save the Commonwealth of Massachusetts ( from said Junior and Sophomore Classes). (Signed) The Class of 1931 Wilhem Bellmaus von Hastingsburg (Attorney) In the Presence of Al Capone, Al Smith, Al Polley. Valedictory and Essay (Continued from page 16) sea of specialization. Some of us will go to college for the first stage of this voy- age, while others will enter some chosen field of activity and begin the long and difficult task of specializing in that branch of industry. Whether we go to higher institutions of learning or immediately pursue our vocation, most of us will be subjected to untold hardships and will be called upon to make unlimited sacrifices, yet when we have attained the achieve- ment of our ambitions we shall feel that all we have done has been worth the energy expended. Tonight, we, the Class of 1931, embark upon this great sea of specialization. Be- fore us lies a vast expanse of water with all its dangers and perils; beyond lies the reward of achievement. In the many years to come we may shift our course from time to time, but we must not falter. Like Columbus we too must sail on and on and on until we skilfully guide our ships safe- ly into that distant harbor of propitious attainment. Richard Montgomery, ' 31.
