CLASS WILL We, the class of 1934, being about to leave this sphere, in full possession of a sound mind, memory, and understanding do make and publish this our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills by us at any time heretofore made. And first we do direct that our funeral services shall be conducted by our friends and well wishers, the faculty, only enjoining that the funeral be carried on with all the dignity and pomp our situation in the school scale has merited. As to such estate as it has pleased the fates and our own strong arms to give us, we do dispose of the same as follows: Section 1 We give and bequeath to the Board of Directors and faculty restful nights and peaceful dreams. We promise them the rest from the Thirty-four's petitions. It has been hard to have our fondest wishes thwarted, it must have been hard for them to refuse so fair a pleader. They have done their duty, and they have received their reward. We give and bequeath that our best and beloved sister Thirty-five will have all the wealth of love and blessing that she may want. May our mantle fall completely upon her shoulders. We give to the Freshman Class the following advice: Look at the class of Thirty- hve and be encouraged. Accept those things which will lead you to glory, learn to work if not to win.
