We, the Senior Class of 1924, in thirty-nine distinct and individual parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a well-trained memory, a human understanding and complete and sound mind, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, which in form and contents is as follows: Section 1. We give and bequeath to our faculty, who have been our loved instructors through a sweet and unbroken succession of restful nights and peaceful dreams, our heartfelt gratitude and thanks. No longer need they worry over the startling and amazing knowledge that we have furnished them on our examination papers. We trust that the faculty will feel, hereafter, at will to use these bits of wisdom and enlightenment as they wish, for the benefit of humanity and civilization. Section 11. We give and bequeath to our principal, Mr. J. J. Swinney, and superintendent, Mr. R. L. Spires, our most sincere, undivided affection, respect and heartiest gratitude. Section 111. We give to the Freshmen our good sense, knowledge and unerring judgment in all school affairs. We also wish to give a little advice: Always follow the straight and narrow path and have a little enjoyment with it, as the class of 24 has done, and we are sure it will lead you to glory. Section IV. To the Sophomore Class, we bequeath our wonderful ability and skill in selling tickets for all entertainments and especially for movies. Section V. To the Junior Class we give, since they are next year s Seniors, our dignity, and by all means our social ability. Section VI. We, the Senior Class of '24, do give and bequeath the following pet characteristics of our class to those whom we think will be most benefited by them. 1. Irma Morrison, her fare for trips between Clarence and Paxton on the Nickel Plate, to anyone needing funds. 2. Robert Benjamin, his longitude to Wayne Morris. 3. Pauline Given, her giving spirit to Mildred Kelsheimer. 4. Robert Moffett, his ability to syncopate the saxophone to Edgar Rulison. 5. Frank Platt, his quiet disposition to Norman Swanson. 6.
