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.
