1. To Mabel Fobair, the pleasure of translating Virgil with the hope that she may achieve a success that would bring joy to the heart of Aeneas himself. 2. To Marie Subora, the famous German student, our German manners and accent. with the caution not to attempt to particularize a word of too many syllables, for fear that her tongue might be distorted from its normal position. 3. To Nellie Shea, we leave both the old and the new dictionary, which has served us many years and are warranted to open at the desired pageg and to Emily Kovar, a Remington typewriter for individual use. 4. To Elizabeth Kovar, all the love romances in the library written in English: those in Latin we assign to Catharine Korn. 5. We consign to Walter Shinsky, the care of the clock which well deserves its place in the Senior room for the service which it has rendered, smiling on the punctual and frowning on the tardy. 6. To Leo Bowne, the privilege of formulating parties and other entertainments for his classmates: warning him, however, not to cause the participants to reply on the following morning, unprepared 7. To Roy Burns, the authority to settle all disputes which might arise from conditions mentioned in article 6. 8. To Eva Moran and Hattie Poisman we leave the dearold songs sung in high school daysg our only injunction is that they keep the tune. 9. To Martha Carrier, and Marie Brunk, who hold the record in stenography we leave, to have and to hold, the old Pitman's shorthand for another year. 10. All money left after the payment of our just debts is to be expended in the pur- chase of toys, story books, etc., for the Sub-Freshmen. Teachers are often at a loss as to how their fingers may be employed during the Iirst days in high school. We feel, therefore, that our suggestion will prove a valuable one. 11. We hereby nominate and appoint Edward Castonia and Cyril Clavette sole execu- tors of this, our last will and testament, and we hereby authorize and empower the ex- ecutors of this will to make sale of and convey any parcel or parcels, real or imaginary estate of which we may die possessed, for the purpose of raising any and all such sums of money as shall be required for the trust funds, annuities and legacies here in before directed to be created, given and bequeathed. We hereby revoke all wills by us heretofore made and constitute the said Edward Castonia and Cyril Clavette executors of this, our last will. ANTHONY YECH, fSeal.j Signed, sealed, published, and declared by the said Anthony Yech, for the class of 1916, as the last will and testament in the presence of us who, by his request, and in his presence, and in the presence of each other have hereunto set our hand and sub- scribed our names as attesting witnesses:- BENJAMIN RUSSEL BURNS, 1918.
