QCLASS WILL CON'T,J be inscribed our names and a few of our out- standing deeds,ta purchased and placed in the auditorium of the school where it will strike the eyes of all who enter. And in this manner do we dispose of our possessions: First, we bequeath to the teachers, the faculty of the 'Scioto High School, free from all inheritance, luxury, or income tax, our entire store of Knowledge. From them it came and to them it should bereturned, that others may be benefitted by it as we have been. We feel that this Knowledge, plus information ob- tained by original research and contemplation, will prove startling, and might even, with profit be incorported in the next course of study. We also bequeath our valuable sense of humor to them, without which we should have found school life painful indeed, and which will do much to make it endurable for them. ' We give and'bequeath to our supertintendr ent, A.A. White, a sense of relief that we have at last been graduated, and a feeling of pride in any great deeds or noteworthy a- chievments that our future may contain, real- izing that such glories-if anynwill be -dubL largely to his example and counsel. To dear old Scioto High School itself we leave the calm and peaceful quiet caused by our absence, and any old wads of gum, answer books, or crumpled notes we may have left in some forgotten place. A To our County Superintendent, Mr. Goerge D. McDowell, we give and bequeath the best of luck in finding a full corps of teachers to fill his ftwelvez county schools. We give and beguefth to the Junior Class our good luck, which they will need next yeaq and all examination questions we have been given during the past year. We believe that
