Class Witt lfriends and tflassniafes: ln view of the fact that we are about to depart from this noble hall of learning. it is only fitting and proper that we should make :I last will and testament lll'flll4'2lllllllfI to those left behind the many desirable and a very few undesirable qualities. characteristics and habits which helped to make our class as distinctive and famous as it is. l'is hard to part with them but much as we regret to do so, they are left freely and willingly and with the hope that the recipients of the generous gifts derive as great use and pleasure from them as we have enjoyed. I. therefore. in behalf of lny fellow classmates bequeath to 'lfllli .IVNIORS our excellent class spirit and ability to win everything in the way of contests. which is one of the marked char- acteristics of our class. 'I'O 'FHIC SOl'llOMORliS our unfailing suc- cess in everything undertaken and also the high esteem with which the faculty regards us because of our perfect attendance, punctu- ality and dignity in elass meeting. TO 'l'l'IIC l'lll'ISllMlCN our excellent recipe for quickly and eilectually removing any re- maining suspicions of a greenish hue. along with all the elasties, tinfoil and small wooden missiles in the building. YVhen the supply runs out Mr. Rosa is willing to give an ap- plicant an abundance of these to help carry on the good work of decorating the platform and causing unearthly sounds to issue from the Baby Grand. CLARA WINDOIVT wills her unc-easing gig- gles and Hawaiian dam-'ng to Augusta Oentz. Time or place makes no difference to Clara when that l'kelele mood comes on, she just can't resist. AARON Sl'lilXOSTlCAlYl' leaves his habit of frequently deelaiming at length on Nt. Paul and Minneapolis to anyone unforunate enough to be around. RUlJOLl'1l UIXURASS leaves his loud smile. which can be heard a block away, to Bernard York. R.U'l'Il HIXCLAIR wills her extra chin and a few dimples to Constance Richards. KARL Iillil. has kindly consented to be- stow upon Grenville Martinson his short trou- sers worn on Dress-Up-Day for he knows Gren- ville isn't thinking quite yet of wearing long 01195. l l.Oli1'IXCl2 RYAX wills her habit of run- ning up to Xegannee over the week-end to lflora l'arker.

XYILLIAM lil'Il'LlCR wills his graceful danc- ing to Fred Rydholm. HLADYS XVILLTAMH leaves her quiet, dig- nified manner to Nellie Lyons. Did anyone exer hear Gladys talk in a boisterous manner or act in any way but one befitting the dig- nity of a Senior?
