Cast Will And Zest ament We, the classof nineteen hundred and fifty-five , 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. First , we give and bequeath to the faculty restful nights and peaceful dreams . W e promise them a rest from nineteen hundred and fifty -five petitions . No more will we be called upon to bend our ha ughty knee to supplicate; no more will they be pained to refuse. It has been hard to have ourfondest wishes thwarted; it must have been hard for them to refuse so fair a pleader. They have done their duty, and they have their reward. But, O. K.! how much easier it would have been for them and for us if they had said, “Yes,” especially to senior privileges. Last comes the one thing hard for us to part with. To our successors we must give our course in senior English, and let me say that English IV is a course where you learn to do things. Now the members of the class of 1954 do hereby make the following personal bequests: Daisy Robinson wills her ability to sew to Blondell Jackson. Emma Russell gives her jewelry to her cousin Essie Gray. Elizabeth Stafford leaves her ability to talk to Howard Thomas. Mary McClure wills her ability to sew to her sister, Levada McClure.
