Third, the place in the Carson School which is their rightful heritage and would have been ours, too, had we been discreet enough to have failed one year. After enduring with us one year of Legion Hall and Annex classes they should be able to appreciate it. Besides these enforced gifts, we leave,-not of necessity, but of our own free will-our blessing, tender memories of our past associa- tions together, and a pledge of friendship henceforth and forever. All the rest of our property, whatsoever and Wheresoever, of what nature, kind and quality it may be, and not herein before disposed of, we give and bequeath to our Principal, Miss Chambers, for her use and benefit absolutely, to be disposed of for the good of coming classes as she may see fit. And we do hereby constitute and appoint Mr. Thissen, sole executor of this our last will and testament. ln witness whereof, we have hereunto subscribed our name and affixed our seal this 24th day of January in the year of our Lord One Thousand Nine Hundred Twenty-six. - Class of 1926 CSEALJ RUTH BIGGS

which we suffered with all the dead facts and gruesome details of U. S. History under Miss Benner's supervision. May they have no need for it save for purposes of initiation until of sheer age it shall disintegrate. ITEM: We give and bequeath to the Class of 1930, the fire truck. We feel it to be a suitable plaything for freshmen, as it should have a ten- dency to fire their ambitions, to make them worthy to be our successors. ITEM: . The following may seem but trifling bequests, but we hope they may be accepted, not as worthless things cast aside because we can no longer use them, but as valuable assets to those who may receive them. First, to the football team of next year, the ability of Kenneth Rundall. We couldn't get Ora Stockton to surrender his. Second, to Fern Dickinson, Claire Myers' gift of gab. Third, to the first applicant for the same, Claude Noaker's ability to get Mr. Owen off the lesson. Come early and avoid the rush. Fourth, to Ed Steffa, a little discretion to be used frequently, es- pecially when attempting to vamp the faculty or the alumnae. Fifth, to some benighted Freshman, anybody who will accept it as it is yet unclaimed, Mildred Dutcher's ailments. CMay the poor Freshie survive as well as Milly hasj Sixth, to Carl Seckel, Kenneth McCoy's very great self-esteem. Seventh, To Edith McKusker, Norma Rumple's musical gifts. Music hath charms to soothe the savage beast. ITEM: The subjoined list will be recognized as entailed estates, to which we do declare the Class of 1927 the real and rightful successors: First, our Senior dignity. May they uphold it forever, with all seriousness and gravity, endeavoring to realize its vast importance, in spite of their natural light-mindedness and irresponsibility. Second, the boys who have not been able to keep pace with such brilliant girls as constitute the majority of our class, trusting that the Junior girls may be able to hold firmly to them and to steer them suc- cessfully, next year, thru the gates of Commencement.
