The Class Will Wc, the Senior Class of 1944 of the New York State Institute of Agriculture and Home Economies, in order that succeeding classes at our Alma Mater may honor and treasure well our worldly effects and traditions, do herewith present our LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT. Take heed, all comers here, take heed; Our bequests, share ye well. And when in turn, ye too shall speed Out in life’s shaded dell; Leave what is best, for others come Your thinning ranks to swell.

Betty Jensen wills her knitting knack to Joyce, who at present gives no opposition. Misura leaves her “Cabin of Dreams” to Ginny Clover. Brown leaves the woman’s one great privilege to Fitzie. Savez-vous? Peg Kays wills that innocent way to Cora. Could they both be holding out on us? Kratky, who hit the jack-pot on the “Million Dollar Band,” leaves her line to E. Stoutenburgh.
