CLASS WILL We the class of 1939 of Shelby High School, aged 12 years, of sound-mind and memory, having duly con- sidered uncertainties of further union and the un- erring certainty of separation, do make and establish this last will and testament. First: 'l.Te intrust our exeoutors, the faculty, to conduct our funeral services with pomp and ceremony befitting the dignity of the class, to pay all our funeral expenses from the revenues of est te es soon after our graduation as is practicable. The seniors on their departure leave to the Freshmen their boldness. It took us a long time to develop this and we a e hoping you v-ill use it to an advantage. leave to the Sophomores our dignity. Of course you will have to improve this because it is very mature. We give to the Juniors our sponser, Miss Moon, we know you ’ ill be pleased and ’ ,e hope she will plan as many good times for you as she did for us.
