THE SPHINX 19 Senior Will We, the Senior Class of 1920, of the Momence Community High School, village of Momence, County of Kankakee, State of Illinois, being of weak mind and short memory, do hereby make, publish, and declare this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills, bequests and devises of whatever nature by us made. 1. To the Honorable faculty we bequeath the right to use any infernal machine of torture which disturbances in the West Room may call for. 2. To the Juniors we bequeath our many pleasures and few worries over the lecture course. 3. To the Sophomores we bequeath the right to play hookey and get three or more in deportment. 4. To the Freshmen we give the right to do unto others as you were done by. 5. To the Subs we give our dignified actions and solemn attention to business. 6. To Mildred Feddie we give free access to the D. S. Room so she may have Cookie any time. 7. To Clarice Lamport we bequeath the use of the Senior Hall Mirror un¬ disturbed and free of charge. 8. Bill Porter gives Margaret Hobart his unequalled gracefulness that she may soon become famous as a dancer. 9. To Lloyd Eyler we give Ed. Green’s wild and wooly Western nature. 10. To any luckless unfortunate Junior we bequeath Elno Smith’s trials and tribulations while governing the Senior Class. 11. To Walter Scott we bequeath Paul Sweeney’s typewriting prowess. 12. To Ikey Hardy we bequeath great popularity with the next year’s Fresh¬ men girls. Once a Freshman was wrecked on an African coast, Where a cannibal monarch held sway; And they served up the Freshman in slices on toast, On the eve of that very same day. But the vengeance of heaven followed swift on the act, And before the next moon was seen, By cholera morbus that tribe was attacked, For that Freshman was dreadfully green.
