creased and at last eqnaled. The body organized at the tbeginning of the Second semester. Misses Mary Parenti a11d -Sula Putcaimp were elected to the offices of president and secretary respectively. The '14 class was well represented in t-he tSenior Farce -by Miss 'Putt-amp and Mr. Hoffman. Our class is also athletic, participat- ing in tennis, basket ball and baseball. They were represented in the track meet hy Ma cf' a rt y. 1Ve gave a reception and dance in honor of the Seniors in March and we feel that we are capital entertainers. The Seniors tried to ridicule our glorious class but we got the laugh on them. S. D. '14. Lfiiatnrg nf the Zlirezhmm On the seventh of August. 1911 there entered into the Liberty Vnion High School a class of fifteen Freshmen. There were Freshies of every description. tall Fresthies and slinn ones, fat Freshies and short ones. As we entered we were greeted witl1 cries of Oh you Freshiesf' What a sweet little Freshie and similar gieetings, some of which we returned as saulcily as they were given. At first we had a rather unpleasant time. Everything' was strange and we made many blunders such as wandering into the wrong- claiss room. speaking' when we shouldn't. etc. The upper elassmen treated us like we were balbies until they discovered that we real'ly did have brains. Our respect and fear for them gradually decreased as we know them better. The Seniors showed their gootl will bv 1-'ivine' us a reception in our 'honor at which we consumed untold quantities of ca.ke and sherbert. Now we know better and behave as 'well as anyone. The fSenior girls were very desirous of initiating IIS until one day the oppor- tunity presented itself. lt was the day of the watermelon feed in the basement. Suddenly some one shwuted Now's our chance and they rushed towards us. brandishing' their melon rinds and yelling madly. When they had finished. 'there was melon in our mouths, eyes, noses and in our hair. Hur dresses were utterly demolished. As a climax the Seniors were going' 'to tie us up but one of the teachers interfered and we escaped. All this for the girls. Meanwhile the boys were suffering. especially the smaller ones. Not a day passed Without someone being ducked in the trough or tied in the tank hou-se until some one rescued him. 'Finally all the students -ceased both- ering' us and we were allowed To exist in peace. XVe were however blamed for everything' that happened. however much we raised our hands in horror and our voices in protest. The Liberty Strike was the onfly thing' for which we weren't blamed. This occurred on the twelfth of February. All decided to play t1'uant. To celebrate the day. There were a few mur- murs about the Freshmen being' left at home. but we promised to be :trod so they relented. 1Yhat a glorious time 'we had! Never before had we done such a naughty tliingx How our little conscience did prick at times. As 1 remarked ,before we were not blamed for this escapade. After suffering' a week's punishment we decided not to attempt anything' similar again. 1-'rom that day we have been as good as possible and from all indications we will make as conceited hophomores as the lnost conceited of the t'1:lss of 1511-1. li' l-I '13

Gllafm will zmh Ulvztamrnt YVe, the class ot' 1912. about to leave this sphere, 'being in t'ull possession ot' a sound mind. memory and unde-rstanding. do make puiblic, and declare this to be our last will and testament. First :-'We direct that our funeral exfpenses lie paid from the student body treasury to twtliicli we all so willingly con- tributed our ten cents a month. tSecond:-4VVe bequeath to the trustees restful nights and peaceful dreams, We promise them freedom from our petitions. No more will we be called upon to bend our haughty -knees: no more will they be pained to ret'use. It 'has lbeen hard to have our fondest wishes thwarted. It must have been hard for the-m to refuse such fair pleaders. They have done their duty and they shall 'have their just reward. For them we have also planted a tree ot' Friend- sh-ip .May it ever be green! Tliiiid:-To the Juni-ors we 'bequeath our ability for carrying out our plans and ask ot' -them to bear in mind as we have done t-he motto, ln Union There is Strength. ive also leave to them the hon- ors and responsibilities of carrying on -the Student Body affairs. draining the treas- ury on each occasion as we have done. Fourth:-To the tSophomore girls we leave the tennis court, May they in the t'u- ture win the championsliip ot' the c nunty. Girl's keep up your interests! To the boys ot' that class and the Fresinen boys we leave the track field, and the hand tball court. asking 'Ernest t'rocket't to ju-mp the hurdles at the next meet. - I it7tll:-Tlle Freshmen girls are given our unbounded knowledge ot' t'urrent lflvents. Sixtliz-'l l1e erasers in the t'ommer- cial .room are given to llenry l lumley. those in the assemlillv room to lilwin Wil- son and Alvin Howard. lbut remember bays! Anyone that throws an eraser must stay one hour after school. Seventli:-'Our respective seats in the assetnbly room we leave to the l'ollvwing students: tllive Siple's to ltay Good- win. Sty that he wou't have to walk so far. Kat-ie Mu.rphy's to the studious Aileen Por- ter so that she will have no one to bother her. Jessie Johnson's to Edith Fakefbread. so that she wiill 'be able to hear everything that is going on: mine, as hard as it is for me to part with it, I now willingly give to Judson Swift, so t-hat he can see everyone who passes. Eighth :-To the grammar school to .whom we owe it great deal, we leave the remains of the glorious stars and stripes, which t'loa't over the school 'building day by day. Nint-h:-4YYe. the Senior girls do also hereby bequeath our individual qualities. merits and dearest posessions. Katie Murphy bestows ufpon Richard XVallace the 'honors which she received as Senior class president. May he have the co-operation ot' his class in a greater de- gree than he had when giving the famous Junior Hop. Miss 'Murphey wills her excellent marks in current events to Gene Maclt'arty. To NViill MacGurn she leaves her unlimited knowledge ot' Ul 3l1Q'liSll Men ot' Letters. ller well wo1'n black suit she wills to Mary Parenti knowing that it will t'it her. Last, but not least, she gives her civic note book tn Hanrolid 'Follis with the plea that he spend a-s much time ponder- ing over it next year. as she has 'done this one. Jessie Johnson wills first ot' all. her noble steed and cart to Mr. XYood to use when he goes 'wild goose hunting. ller t'ivic book she leaves to Mr. Vivian. ller knowledge ot' German. -she leaves to liver- ctt lA'IIllllIl9. ller white sweater and tan shoes she wills to Susie tllickinson.
