CLASS WILL Know all high school students by these presents: we, the graduating class of the Grants Pass High School, in the City of Grants Pass, County of Josephine, State of Oregon, in this year of our Lord, one thousand, nine hundred and twenty one, being in possession of our diplomas and still in our right minds and under no undue influence do declare this our last will and testament, dividing our great abundance of hidden assets among our dear and esteemed faculty and to the poor and feeble minded students who will still attend this said school. FIRST: To the High School in general, we do leave our school spirit and pep , we leave the foot ball pennant for the classes to fight over and our debts to be divided equally among the different classes. SECOND: To Superintendent Imel we do will several charters to be used in his political economy class in order that his students may have more efficient co-operation during examination. Also a complete correspondence course in the art “how to make a noise like a fish worm to save him time and trouble in baiting his hook when fishing. THIRD: To Professor Gaston, we do will one phonograph with a full set of 3-minute records to be used at the end of each period to give his little assembly talks thereby saving much breath. Also one large bulletin board upon which he may advertise lost and found articles. FOUR IH: To the honorable members of the School Board the Senior Class wills one of their members, Leonard Williams, whom we think will be an efficient teacher in conducting the ninth period class. FIFTH: To our beloved class advisor. Laura Thomas Gunnell, we do give our esteem and admiration for her ability to pour oil on troubled waters. SIXTH: To Ethel Parent, we do bequeath one pair of iron wheeled, re-en- forced roller skates to enable her to get to school on time without the least exertion, as a great deal of energy is needed to take down the deportment in the fifteen minute period before school. SEVENTH: To Glenn Wardrip, we will a heart (he has none) to throb during his assembly periods when coming in contact with his Freshies. Also, four brand new splinter-fired second hand Fords, no cylinder, horse powerless, ten passenger, tourless cars to be used as toys by his Auto-mechanics class, together with sixteen full sized quart bottles to contain all the surplus compression that circulates around the room when a finger is smashed. EIGHTH: To Eva Parrett, we leave one case containing six boxes of Ox Blood Red Rouge to be applied daily. This is guaranteed to give enough color to relieve the unusual pallor. NINTH: To Miss Yannke, we do will and bequeath Velma Everton’s curl- ing iron and Ellen Flint's latest receipe on “How to Reduce . 23
