When the Seniors have a rea y given all they have?l' qu H You've got to write something , he sarcastically murmured , 'fI've done it all . Yes you have not! I yelleped and ducked the heavy tome on chemistry that he heaved at my head. . Three days later I dug up an ancient pamphlet on witchcraft of ancient ages. Deep in the musty pages I neglected the passing of time and I slept. I l t When I awoke the following morning, I found it clenched in my fingers. It was in my handwriting and therefore thanking the Witch for her help I gave it to the publishers. -Toi-1 SENIOR CLASS WILL All day Wall Street had been in a turmoil. The' Bears were hammering, but. the Senior class hammered back and won a fortune: Kings assembled armies and fleets of airplanes bombarded the city, but the Senior class by brilliant maneuvering won the victory and saved the country from disaster and defeat. Ice, snow and hunger haunted the path of the intrepid band of explorers in the Arctic, the Senior class mounted over these obstacles and brought back as- tunding discoveries of the north polar regions. At last the success- ful career was over. All ears were waiting for the fatal toll of the cathedral bells -that were to sound the mournful tidings of a great leaders passing. The Senior Class slid one hand under his pillow and drew a folded document, which he gave to his eldest son, and quietly he left. Later the will was opened and the remarkable document was made public. ' Item 1. I, the Senior Class of the Hill Military Academy being in sound mind and body do bequeath to the world my good will and talent. Item 2.

CLASS POEM l Spring days have come to us at last, The happiest of the year. But Seniors go 'round with looks downcas. For Commencement? drawing near. ll Four years of happiness, joking and fun. Of laughs we've had our fill. Yet people'll say life's just begun A When wegleave good old Hill. . lll We've had our joy mixed up with trouble, When Mark Sessions rolled around. But still our spirits continued. to bubble As we kept up our walk oler the ground. IV , . We've laid in our beds and told stories and jokes, When'the lights were supposed to be out, And allof us giving some thoughts to our folks We're so happy we'd raise up and shout. V . We'll miss our old Pals when they have gone, And think that the hurt'll neler heal. As we say Good-bye to joe or john We know just how they feel. V1 Weill remember our teachers, stern and gruff The mannerisms, they had. ' ' How they knew our lessons were mostly bluff, Will always make us sad. ' A V11 These happenings will some day be far in the past Although they will never be dim, As their echoes and mem'ries are certain to last Till we meet with the spectre grim. 1-Elwood j.Whonn..
