Mountain Boys, being of sound minds and excellent physical con- dition, do hereby renounce any former wills made by us, and declare this to be according to our fondest wishes. We will to Mr. Cook a gift coupon at Sears Roebuck; now you may have your own private supply of towels for ball games. We will to Mr. McPhetres anything he desires. After putting up with us for four years you deserve it. We will to Mrs. Wilson a slightly used hair-brush so that you may keep the Junior High in line. We will to Mrs. Spear three brilliant brains to replace those you lose in sociology clars. We will to Mrs. Gibson our sense of humor. How are you ever going to get along without it in your College English class? We will to Mr. Morey a student to replace Geraldean. Without her your classes will be so dull. We will to Mrs. Rowe, as classes in the past have done, our un- limited musical talent. What are you going to do for basses, Mrs. Rowe ? We will to Sam Stanley an automatic bell-ringer. Let the bell rope stay stuck, Sam. You won’t need the ladder any more either. We will to the juniors, of course, the famous tower room and the right to keep the other classes out, by means of force if necessary. We will to the sophomores some males; now maybe the trend toward other places will stop. We will to the freshmen our athletic ability to make up for the lack of size.
