bestow on the girls in general all of their personal charm. 22. Leo. Kimmet leaves his priceless Physics notebook to any member of next year’s Physics Class. 23. And lastly but not leastly, the Seniors kindly bestow upon the Juniors Miss Eves’ History map, and to the Faculty their sympathy at losing twenty-five gems. After the heretofore Will has been divided, we leave to the high school in general all our remaining property, both real and personal. In the presence of witnesses we do sign and seal this, our last earthly will and testament, this twenty-sixth day of May, one thousand, nine hundred and sixteen in the year of our Lord. —Merna Bess. j Senior Class Poem Tho’ we have sat and scratched our domes in meditative mood, Tho’ we have writhed in agony on ’zamination day, Proud that our record, on the whole, is counted pretty good, Though we would be down-hearted if we thought we had to stay It almost gets our goat to go away. When we just stop to think that we won’t have the chance again To give nine lusty rahs’ for Lowell High School’s B. B. team, We wonder, when we’re gone away just how the school will seem ; This class of sixteen soon will be grown women and grave men, If there’s a time that we feel blue, it’s then. Somehow we’ve grown attached to every single stick and stone; We won’t forget our tribulations or our triumphs here. Perhaps, at times, we’ve been a trial sore to everyone, We’ve played our share of pranks and teased the faculty I fear, But what’s the odds? My land! Was that a tear? —Contributed. As the Year Rolls On O time and Change! How soon does freedom fade! How fleeting are such things as right and reason! For what we once did, now is termed “high treason,” And there is grieving sore in every grade, For rules and laws each day more strict are made. One time the teachers winked at conversation Within the assembly’s brilliant aggregation; But now, since we have “packed our grips” and moved Into this structure, built for moral things, Clayton and Tadlock—both of these have proved That great is the reward which virtue brings. —Lola Mallatt.
