Class Will E, the members of the Senior Class of the City of Plym- outh, County of Marshall, and State of Indiana, being on unfriendly terms with the squirrels, and wishing to show our good will toward all mankind, do make and publish this our last will and testament. To our beloved principal, Mr. Harris, we hereby bequeath all the country hams, cider, and candy in Marshall County. We also leave him four bottles of Castoria, for first aid to the juniors should they be overcome by the fumes from the chemistry laboratories. To Mr. McDowell, our superintendent, we leave one thousand printed copies of his annual snowball speech, on condition that they be circulated in the grades and high school before june 15th. To Miss Johnson, we bequeath a complete volume on Woman Suffrage, also more argument about the superiority of the femi- nine mind. To Miss Eberly, we leave an ear trumpet to be used when Ruth Snyder and Melvin Thomas recite. We also leave a lock and key to the assembly room for her convenience during play practices. To Mr. Stuart, we leave Ruth Snyder, Margaret Cressner and Nita Jacoby, in hopes that all four may be able to strike up a con- versation. To Miss Kercher, we leave eight cents to buy peanuts for the German club, also a personally autographed photograph of Kaiser Wilhelm. To Mr. Stilson, we bequeath seven hundred Wrigley's Spear- mint coupons so that he may have another car? when his Ford is worn out. To Miss Berg, we leave mass of ignorance termed Freshies . To Mr. Jackson, we leave the position of stage manager at the next comic opera, also another opportunity to yell Fire, Fire l To Miss Scott, we leave our old song books containing those beautiful?? cloudbursts such as Soldier's Chorus and My l-1eart's in the Highlands. VVe trust that she will have them cre- mated at once. To our worthy janitor, Gtto Thompson, we leave a patent dust- ing cloth, with the hopes that he will spend more time on Long- fellow than he does on Hebe. To Miss Langdon, we leave two lathe machines, a buzz saw, and two drag saws to be installed in the library so that she will not miss the busy? H. S. students during vacation. To Miss Roth, we bequeath a big war order calling for tive thousand biscuits to be used for the German defense. In addition to the above bequest, members of the Senior Class desire to bequeath certain keepsakes and prized possessions to their loved ones in the high school. I, Dale Seider, having forever forsaken short trousers donate them to the Freshie president. and trust that he will make good use of them. l25l I
