Teachers 40. TO WHOM IT MA Y CONCERN: This is to testify that, in the presence of sundry due and regular witnesses, we, the undersigned, do solemnly swear t'hat, in return for their forgiveness of our faults, we do forgive our session room teachers for their mistakes which are admitted to be only natural, since we realize that this senior class has been a difficult group, or so we have been told. We agree that if they will overlook our ooceasional defiance, impudence, display of temperament, and what-not, which at- tend any clash of the several wills, and acknowledge our usual glad cooperation, cheerful spirits, and obedient hearts, we in turn will guarantee to forget t'heir drastic measures, anger, outbursts of in- vective and other trivia, and to remember only their sympathy and usual sports- manship. NVe acknowledge the fact that outside of school a meeting of pupil and teacher is all sunshine and bird-song. With this we do withdraw from the domain of our session room advisors and do truly wish them all the luck in the world-they'll need itl -.S'v.r.ti0n, Rooms 116. 209, 211, 212, 216. 217, 119, 120.
