CLASS WVILL We, the class of 1924, being about to depart from this life as High School students, do hereby wish to draw up our final will and testament for the sake of bequeathing all the faculties we ever possessed to those prescribed below: To the teachers we will the obedience, love, and re- spect that we have failed to show them in the past four years. To the Juniors we sadly leave all the seats in the rear of the assembly, seats which only grave and dignified Seniors may occupy. To the school, on account of our departure, we leave much sympathy until the obstacle can be overcome. To those of the printing class we bequeath many hours of blissful pleasure of editing next year's annual. We leave our books to the District, in a worse condi- tion than we received them, on account of such inten- sive and thorough study, but regretting thatvie could not have done so long ago. Calvin leaves his throne as fusser to Albert. The cozy seat occupied most of the time by Tom and Pearl we give to Dwight and Mildred. Ralph Keating leaves his oratorical powers to Lloyd Kimble for the future betterment of the Literary world.

Hail to the Gold! And Hail to the Blue! Hail to our schoolmates! And the faculty true! As the time comes to leave you, At the end of the year, Our minds fill with thoughts Of our high school career. Thoughts of the four years, Which so quickly went past, While we struggled to conquer And stay till the last. Thoughts of the hard work And problems galore, Which we solved as we met them, Marching on as before. CLA SS POE M Memories of good times So richly endowed, With parties and picnics And plays all allowed. Thoughts of the faculty From whom we must part, Thoughts filled with best wishes Which come from the heart. We have spared not our efforts We have all done our best, To put this old High school Above all the rest. So now as we leave you, To open Life's door, We charge you, forget not Nineteen twenty-four. --Ralph Keating
