Luella Emery will be engaged by a type- writing company to give annual exhibitions in typewritingf' At this point the stranger broke off and said, Today Decides Tomorrow. For that reason, your classmates need not worry over the future. Immediately my suspicion and curiosity were more keenly aroused. I asked him where he obtained his more or less accurate knowl- edge but he did not answer. Picking up his fallen sceptre and still with that some- what lingering pathetic smile he fixed his gaze upon the horizon and set off without any explantion. I stood looking after his retreating figure when I heard a great deal of hilarity. I turned around and found the members of the expedition back, back with the hieroglyphic writing and all. Was it intuition or modesty that prompted the sudden retreat of my most amazing friend? Neillfie Brock, '32 Class Will We, the Class of 1932, of Orange High School, City of Orange, County of Franklin, and State of Massachusetts--said by its residents to be the best state of all-having arrived at the end of our high school career, being in fairly good health, of sound mind and memory, as well as being physically normal, but having outgrown our last year's straw hats, and mindful of the dan- gers of the big world before us, do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and testament.
