Page Twenty-two Senior Class Poem First in the list, First in class, But last in the moonlight With a Junior Lass. -Chester. Short, good natured With jokes so vast, Fond of work If it doesn't last. -Charlie. Quite graceful, But Watch that eye. She's watching the Star Of the Alumni. -Mildred Higgs. From east to the west, O'er the nation vast, There isn't a gentleman That she lets past. -Velma. Enthusiastic, jolly, Envious of none, Ready and Watching To have some fun. -Mabel. Down in the crowd, Stretching to see If any one's lost, It won't be me. -Merle. Studious and tiny, No time for fun, Could argue from morn To the set of sun. -Mildred Pillman. Good for nothing, Yet used for allg On hand for the mischief, Everything but small. -Elma.

- -------- -as ----------- Class Will ' State of Illinois, County of Peoria, City of Trivoli. After a series of interviews with our noted physicians, the members of the Faculty, we have realized that our constitutions are fast fading away under the strain of Physics, English, Histories and other similar maladies. Therefore, We, the graduating class of Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-Four, do hereby authorize this last Will and Testament, whereby we may reward and forewarn our friends of the difficulties ac- companying this dignified station of life. First upon our final departure from T. C. H. S., we, the Graduating Class of '24, do give and bequeath to our dear, beloved younger bro- thers and sisters, the Juniors, the back row of seats in the study hall. The above said seats are guaranteed to be the most comfortable in the school, and are to be used only during your brief and brilliant career as Seniors. I To the long-suffering Faculty, we give and bequeath forever- Peace of Mind. Individually- I, Chester Anderson, do give and bequeath my ability to break laboratory material and blame some one else, also my ability to sleep in the middle of the bed at all B. B. tournaments, to Donald Bourne. I, Elma Brooks, do give and bequeath my place as teachers' pet, to my sister, Lucile. I, Velma Harper, do give and bequeath my place in a Ford road- ster, to Violet Quinn. I, Mildred Higgs, do give and bequeath my solemnness and ability to behave, to Frank Ramshaw. I, Charles Hovenden, do give and bequeath my quiet disposition and bashfulness in English classes, to Ira Phillips. Don't misuse it. I, Mabel Kimzey, do give and bequeath my habit of holding hands with Russell Bontz, to anyone desiring it. Come early, avoid the rush. I, Mildred Pillman, do give and bequeath my ability to argue with the teacher, to Edgar Flinn, also ten inches of my surplus height. He needs both. I, Merle Williams, do give and bequeath my sweet, base voice to Grayton Gerber, to be used in place of whispering in music time. VVe hereby revoke and annul all former wills and appoint Miss Cornelius as sole executor of this, our last Will and Testament. fSfgg1edJ SENIOR CLASS, 1924. Per C. D. H. Pa gc Twenty-four
