Senior Qilass Uflliill ants Testament EDWARD TROEGER, '16. We, the Senior Class of 1916, of the city of Storm Lake, Buena Vista Co., and State of Iowa, do hereby make, publish, and declare this our last will and testament hereby revoking all former wills, bequests, and devises of whatever nature made by us. After serving our four-year sentence, it is, indeed, with sad and cheerless hearts, and heavy tread that we leave this dear old school building, the scene of many a former 3 joy and sorrow. No more shall we have the delightful comradeship of our fellow schoolmates and instructors 5 and no more shall the exams strike terror to us. VVe, the Seniors of 1916, having fulfilled all the conditions, completed all the tasks imposed on us, and with few exceptions, being of sound mind and disposing memories think it a wise and benevolent act to leave to those fortunates or unfortunates which the hand of Providence 01' the irony of Fate has placed in the abode so long occupied by us, a few tokens which we have acquired by four years of arduous effort, for the uplift, education, and general welfare of the student body, faculty, and general public. We do hereby direct that our funeral services shall be conducted by the Juniors, and that such will be carried on with all of the dignity and splendor to which we are justly entitled. VVe would ask that a member of the faculty preach the sermon. Such estates of the above named Senior Class of 1916, it pleaseth the fates to distrib- ute as follows: To THE JUNIOR CLASS: Several barrels of condensed witticism. A car load of experience in publishing an Annual. A few words of the German language rescued from the wreckage of lm- mensee. To THE SOPHOMORE CLASS: Studious habits. Pony for their Latin. To THE FRESHMAN CLASS: Unrestricted rights to ask questions. Privileges to speak during assembly hours. To 'run FACULTY: Our hopes and despairs. T he pleasure of remembering us as the most lovable and the most frequent users of common sense that ever graduated from the Storm Lake High School.
