Lu t Will OwWoEfit We, the Senior class of the Swan Quarter High School, being in the full possession of all our mental faculties and having no fear of any¬ one before our eyes, not even the Superintendent, the professor and the other teachers, do hereby devise, will, bequeath and convey our various earthly possessions, and all the appurtenances and hereditaments there¬ unto belonging, to the persons hereinafter mentioned, to be by them held in undisturbed possession during the length of their mortal spans. To the school and the community we bequeath, which we have had in great abundance, and which the world sorely needs, our entire stock of common sense. To the principal and teachers of the Swan Quarter High School we convey our ability to know a good thing when we see it. As this ability has been largely created by their instructions, we are merely returning to them their wn invaluable gift. To the freshmen, we convey our power of saying the wrong thing in the right place, or the right thing in the wrong place. Just how this is accomplished we are not able to say. To the sophomores, we bequeath our good will and ability to per¬ severe through all unfavorable circumstances and our wonderful intel¬ lectual powers, which have brought us to our present enviable position. To the juniors, we bestow all the mistakes, blunders, inaccuracies and lapses committed by us during the last exciting year of our most exciting life. Also we leave our laughs and giggles, all the unchewed gum, half-filled notebooks and all other unclaimed properties of no value whatever. We make the following bequests to individuals: Georgia Ann Cahoon leaves her ability to Catch A Husband to Peggy Gibbs. Joan Emory wills her talented gift of gab to Lenora Raburn. Sherma Lee Smith leaves her dignity and sophistication to Doris Tunnell. Hilda Smithwick bequeaths her love affairs to Anne Shelton. Mary Lou Raburn wills all her stupid thoughts to Rosetta Spencer. Alethia Blake leaves her dancing ability to Kay O ' Neal. Bobbie Jean Credle wills her studious ways to Barbara Steele. Norma Earle Swindell wills her wonderful sense of humor to Monna Lou Carawan. Dallas Berry leaves his ability to sleep in class with his eyes open to Pratt Williamson Jr. Edward Cahoon wills his extreme height to Roger Swindell. I Norma Earle Swindell, leave this document in the hands of on¬ coming classes, sealed and delivered this twenty-ninth day of May in the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and fifty-two. Norma Earle Swindell, Testatrix
