-f'N' rfx Senior Qlass Will E, the Senior Class of 1927, in view of the fact that our days in High School are beginning to wane, have decided to dispose of some invaluable knowledge, peculiarities and habits that we have acquired during our stay in High School. The following is a list of the articles willed and the beneficiaries. I, Roderick Hogan, being under the impression that I am in my right state of mind, do hereby will to Oscar Moodig, the honor of escorting Gertrude Murphy through the crowded corridors of the T. H. S. during the coming school year. I, Oscar Stoneberg, bequeath my appetite for Lootafisk and Norwegian Viking stories, to Kimbel Bloomquist, the great herring choker. I, Dorothy Caron, do bequeath to Alvina Cull, my ability to ignore the male stu- dents of this school. I, Beatrice Scott, relinquish all rights to my last stick of gum, in favor of Paul Bebeau. He won't wear it out. I, Harold Dewing, have just discovered a wonderful brain stimulant, and I here- by give the same to James Parshall. I, Lawrence Marquardt, will my interest in bedtime stories to David Johnson. I, Anna Gwyn, devise and bequeath my domineering manner, to Viola Kleinfeldt. I, William Oelhafen, give my sense of chivalry to William Pinion. This Pinion lad, however must use this gift I, Nettie Roberge, bequeath my superiority in spelling to Donald Taylor. I, John Robarge, give my solemn and dignified appearance to Charles Urban. It has helped me become an eminent Psychologist. I, Renelda Belonga, will my ability to dance the Black Bottom to Dorothy Powell. I, Jennie Damon, bequeath my qualifications as a love story writer to Tessie Br'ock. We, Dorothy Smith and Paul L'Abbe, give, devise, bequeath and will to Kathryn Tierney and Francis McCarthy, our envied reputation as the champion make-believe lovers off the screen. I, Lawrence Foster, leave my heart with Sara Brown, it would prostrate her with grief if I took it back now. She has had it so long. I, Madeline Grube, leave my love for the ultra-ancient in literature to Neoma Ostrander. I, Florence Wurl, leave Oscar Moodig to the mercy of the Happer scholars of the T. H. S. Girls be kind to Oscar, he's only an innocent country laddy. I, William Brady, give my reputation as the sheikiest sheik in High School to Carmen Argust. I, Delores Comeau, leave my musical laughter to Esther Barney. I, Stewart LaFave, bequeath my interest in the Freshman brunettes to George Schultz. I, Adrienne Powell, do will my desire to imitate Joan of Arc, to Vivian Daigle. I, Florence Mills, leave my roguish eyes to Lorna Lambert. This will help her catch a beau. I, LaNor Swanson, leave my position as a class officer to the next unfortunate. May this unlucky one ignore the local critics. -29- O

x W, I, Urial Polege, bequeath my love for ancient literature to Skinny Martin. I, Ruth Kuntz, will my loud voice to Arthur Reinholt. I, Francis Stutz, leave my ability to play the heavy villain, to Lloyd Parkins. I, Albert Ehn, will my dashing manner to Melvin Pflum. He will catch a girl yet. I, Tekla Nick, will to Rowena Adams, my winsome ways. She will surely catch Henry Draeger. I, Luella Osero, will my position as T. H. S. prima donna to Caryl Oelhafen. Now she possesses real histrionic ability. I, William Leverance, leave my extreme height to Carl Nielson. He needs it. I, Kingsley Oelhafen, leave my excessive weight to William Stiff. It might help him make the football squad next year. I, Minnie Chadek, give my love for the Ho1'atio Alger stories, to Donald Jones. I, Richard Stiff, will my Spanish method of wooing the senoritas, to Benjamin Crawford. Benjamin's technique in love making is pathetically lacking of the earnest- ness, characteristic of a gallant knight. I, Margaret Tierney, will my many boy admirers to Carrie Brady. I, Dora Olson, give my freckles to Benjamin Wallis. They should have a remark- able scenic effect upon Benjamin's features. I, Selma Thompson, leave my ability to participate in class recitation, to Edward Sutllff. I, Alice Draeger, give my dark, luminous eyes, to Francis Hogan. I give my cjyes to Francis to assist him in his ardent courtship of Kathryn McCarthy. So far his efforts have not been crowned with success. I, Viletta Myre, bequeath to Stella Robarge, my ability to keep a serene ex- pression, while being rebuked by a teacher. I, Eunice Johnson, give my knowledge of cupid, to Violette Smith. I, Harold Allord, will the duty of dominating the Freshmen, to Harold Krueger. I, Eleanore Prenevost, give a few pointers on corresponding by note, to Olive Harlan. Olive should be vary careful when she sends a note to William Taylor. Tay- lor's heart might fail him, he is so bashful. I, Robert Griffith, abandon my position as an amateur historian, in favor of Theodore Marquardt. I, Kenneth Hatch will my eccentricities to Philip Glines. Dated February 1, 1927.
