CLASS WILL We, tin members of tin senior class of the Imbler liijjfh school, realizing that our days as students of the Imbler high school are about to end, and desiring to make disposal of our property and belongings, do declare this to be our last will and testament, hereby revoking any wills by us made during our junior year. Article One—It is our desire that our alma mater benefit as much as possible by our domicile in the high school, and we therefore leave the bulk of our estate to the high school. We realize that what we are leaving is nothing to compare in value with what we are taking away from high school. Any small contribution that we may have been able to make cannot compensate the school for what it has done for us. Article Two—Feeling very affectionate towards the junior ('lass, it is our desire that this class inherit all of our mental capacity in order that the said junior class may have no difficulty in measuring up mentally to the high requirements set for senior classes. Article Three—We hereby will and bequeath to tin students of the high school our request that they strive to be as loyal to the school as we have been; and that they earnestly try to be worthy students of the high school even as we have been. Article Tour—We have a very deep feeling for members of the faculty of our fair school. It is our desire4 that they have many many years of happy teaching among students of our caliber. We feel that we have been a great help to the faculty members, for from our answers on tests and in class the faculty has probably learned many facts not before known, and never adjudged as accurate. Article Five—We believe in this great country in which we reside. We therefore pledge the students of this high school to follow in our ways and footsteps that they too. may be patriotic citizens. That is the4 way of all of this educational theory and machine- to make good citizens. Article Six—We express a regret that we have not applied our energy more along scholastic linos than we have. However, we feel that participation in student activities is just as important as books if one wishes to be a well rounded citizen. We can buy books later on if we need them: but we shall never be able to buy the pleasant associations which have been ours during our days of high school. Article Seven--We wish that we might have more to leave. Yet if we did, inheritance taxes would dig deeply into the corpus of our estate. Article Eight—To the people of this community who have helped us along the way we leave loads of thanks and appreciation. Article Nine—The balance, residue, and remainder of our estate, if any. we leave to the poor little freshmen, struggling students who some day will become seniors. In making this bequest we are not unmindful of the sophomores. They’ll got by for themselves. Article Ten—Our best wishes for the future art left to all.

Look at him now. with his top hat and cane, sitting there with all the big statesmen. Well, maybe there is a chance for all of us. Scene: A late afternoon in a tropical city. The owner of a large banana plantation sits on his porch. That face looks familiar. We used to know him as Edwin O’Mohundro. Scene: A fashionable beach resort. An afternoon tea is in prog- ress.
