THE CLASS WILL My friends, I have called you to assemble here as a solemn duty, that you, the heirs and assigns of my respected client, the class of 1947, may hear her last will and testament, which, as her legal advisor, I drew, as directed by her, immediately prior to her passing from our presence. We, the class of 1947, in the county of Whitley, and the state of Indiana, being in as good mental condition as usual, and in much better temper than usual, do hereby make this, our last will and testament, rendering void and of no avail any former will or wills that may have been previously made by us du- ring a period of temporary optimism. Although, being as psychologically complex as befits a Senior class, we consist of sixteen separate and distinct entities, or what have you, we are in such complete accord, thinking alike, and seldom, that the editorial--now, alas, funereal-- we will be used to denote our collective entity throughout this document. ' We feel that our brilliant record and our unusual achievements will live after us, but, not wishing to take any chances, we suggest that a tablet, on which shall be inscribed our several names and a few of our most astounding deeds, be purchased and placed in the halls of the school in a position where it will strike the eye of all who enter. And in this manner do we dispose of our possessions: Item one.--We give and bequeath, freely and without reservations or sti- pulations, to the Junior class, our rightful heirs, and to their heirs and assigns forever, our most important and valuable properties, viz., our self- satisfaetion, our importance, and our wisdom, all of which we possess in enor- mous quantities, and we hope said gifts will be of use in overcoming their present inertia. Item two.--We also leave the Junior class our good luck. It made us that we are today, and it should satisfy them. In addition to this, all our priv- ileges and rights as Seniors, as well as.any notebooks, pencils, fountain pens,4 unfinished lollypops, or unfinished business. Item three.--To our good friends, the Sophomore class, we leave our vell- known nerve and patience. It will be found useful as the only means by which they can endure the Juniors. Item four.--To the young and unsophistieated Freshmen to be, we leave a map of the school building, so that they will not get lost and roam about in V H ,Alf , M V ...,- ,-af,-. 5, .uzavxqg .4 ..,,.- s . .'v -'K' . ,..
