In T'-s Vx Q , A, ,xv Jil.: -wg, K m' 7 A3 gzq- noual-mov ITEM: And to the Students collectively I leave all the bright, happy Saturday holidays in which to be free from worry. And I charge them to use those days freely and without stint in the happy society of their families, which during the preceeding week have seen them only for a little while in the dewy eve. And I leave to them these days in which to groom and oil their trusty flivvers, that they may be ready for the road on Monday. But I likewise caution them to use their time wisely, that there may still be left a little space within which to clean and press their pink breeches for the next Wednesday's inspection. Signed, sealed and delivered in the presence of the Commandant, Assist- ant Commandant and the School Secretaryg in the fifth year of the great Drouth. f F s '- - .. - A -, 'eg l wh t A fi V -'liiff J N! ,f lx QM I it 1- z, .1 ,, . f f it .t wil ,,.r J - l , . 0 wi M , Y -.

ITEM: To Captain Glasgow I leave all distances that he may estimate them at his leisure, with no thought for the morrow, when the tape line shall prove mightier than the eye. ITEM: To Lieutenant Dayton, I will and bequeath all T. N. T., and other high explosives, if there be others, and all detonators. And I charge that he mix them carefully before using, that he may not mix with them thereafter. ITEM: To Captain Strain I leave all bayonets. And I charge that he procure from other sources the energy to use his bequest, for verily I have none of the latter to devise. ITEM: To Captain Karlstad I leave all covers to be raced, and all trunnion block safety lock catch pivot springs to be described, at the same time trusting that his faith in humanity may in no wise diminish to the extent that he shall test the intelligence of his future classes. ITEM: To Captain Forney I leave all battery charts and all angles of site and their little sisters and brothers. And I charge that he treat them tenderly and divulge their secrets as painstakingly to future generations as he did to us. And I leave to him the long, long days to ponder over the ability of the human race to resist the introduction of knowledge. ITEM: To Captain Ransom I leave all direct firing and all overhead firing, and sand bags and gun barrels, and I charge him to be most careful of the latter when his seniors are marching bravely but tremulously below. ITEM: To Captain Leiber I will and bequeath all Tommy Bars to- gether with his histrionic ability to describe their origin. ITEM: To Major Wheeler I leave all cavalry gates, and the art of mounting a horse with his right foot, and foxes to be hunted. And I charge that he chase the latter by sight, rather than with noseless caninesg keeping ever to the open road. ITEM: To Sumner Waite I will and bequeath all artillery, both attached and supporting. And I charge him to ponder deeply over the distinction, and to pass on to his future classes the results of his musings. ITEM: To Colonel Bjornstad I leave all Infantry Training, especially recommending to him that of the Third Infantry. And I leave to him all skis and Snowshoes, and such other equipment, if it be equipment, of which he may have knowledge. And I charge that he, in instructing future genera- tions, tell them what it is all about. ef- 1 1' YI 71 4 x Ivy
