MEDINIAN Class Will Howard Dailey The Senior Class has chosen for an attorney to write their will a very able-bodied (not minded) classmate (?). The Seniors of ' 26 will soon become Alumni long to be remembered. Many of these Seniors have traits, talents, and treasures, which they say they wish to give to some of their beloved under-classmen. First of all, we bequeath to our faculty all the things we have forgotten. We al- so bestow upon our advisers a portion of their salary in advance for the purpose of buying new alarm clocks with the hope that they establish an early hour for retiring unless the evening is being used for study. With the best of wishes we bequeath Ted McDowell’s slow motion to Harve Kraver. We are proud that none will be able to compare with our distinguished musicians Herb” Blanchard and “Dick” Warner. We bequeath Emma Bennett’s and Mabel Leavitt’s friendship to any two cap- able young freshmen. We perhaps can not find a couple to fill Hall Kellogg’s and Helen Hammett’s case, but the closest we have been able to come to this pair are “Chick” Fulton and Phyllis McNeal — may their friendship never waver. The ability of Donald Bagley as a grocery manager, we impart to Tommy Haight. Fern Selzer wishes to bequeath her good will, grace and scholastic equipment to whomsoever can get them in the mad scramble of the vociferous under-classmen. We wish to bestow the good behavior of Juanita Davis, Helen Eastwood and Ag- nes Lentz upon “Bob” Flammer, “Brother” Kern and Tommy Munson. Henry Crisick wishes to notify the pupils of M. H. S. that he leaves nothing and takes nothing; he leaves this will so there will be no argument as to shares. Donald Chase takes pleasure in bestowing upon Frank Mettie his limitless knowl- edge and astounding information that he has furnished at various times in his examina- tion papers. George Gable wishes to leave one pure-bred Holstein cow to Daisy Hoddinott. We bestow Loa Rickert’s habit of showing everyone a good time to Stanberry Nichols. Eleanor Freeman wishes to leave Lois Kiefer her nice quiet manner and her “gift of gab” to Carl Roth. We certainly pity Carl. Olive Davis gives one pair of number nine shoes to any freshman that can wear them. We hate to be relieved of “Doc” Strong’s combined “horse laugh” and “girl’s giggle but he must get rid of it so we have decided to give it to Jay Lash. Twenty-Seven

Ethel Woodruff’s angelic conduct is hereby willed to La ' Verne Thorpe with the advice that La Verne should use this bequest wisely. Luella Gilbert gives a bit of advice to whom it may concern, ’never take off your hat you might get your feet wet.’ (Ask Luella for particulars.)

Roger Johnson wishes to keep everything in the family. Lie bequeaths one perfectly good pair of rubber boots to his brother Hobart. A collection will be taken to enable him to get them stretched. Besides all these precious gifts we also leave the juniors our blessing, tender memories of our pleasant associations together and a pledge of friend- ship for the future. The rest and residue of our property not already disposed of we give to our teacher of history, as a slight token of our respect, to be used by her for the benefit of the coming classes in whatever way her mature judgment shall decide. We hereby appoint the Faculty sole executor of this our last will and testament and stipulate that the bond shall not exceed Five Thousand Dollars.
