28 SCARLET AND GRAY CLASS WILL We, the members of the Senior class of the West LaFayette High School, knowing ' the uncertainty of life, and while still sound in mind and memory, do give, devise and bequeath what gifts and talents we deem un¬ necessary to carry forth into the world to our friends, as follows: 1. To the Junior class we leave our much carved seats in Room 13, also our highly treasured and slightly damaged chewing gum, which may be found on the under part of our desks. 2. To the faculty we leave our good intentions and our schemes for community welfare. 3. To the Sophomores we leave the right to pick ancient costume plays and make successes of them. 4. To the Freshmen we leave what little nerve is left us. 5. Personally: I, Louise Wolff, leave my calm and steady temper to Edna Andrews, hoping that it will work with a better effect than heretofore. I, Kenneth Myers, leave the school (whether I graduate or not) to Milo Young, with the hope that he will take good care of it. I, Edwin Bennett, leave my ability to talk all the time and say nothing to Burton Hollingsworth. I, Dolly Misner, leave my peroxide bottle to Elizabeth Burkle, with the wish that she will not use it too rashly. I, John Andrews, leave my growing tonic to Miss Jessup with the warn¬ ing that it is not to be taken in large doses. I, William Perkins, leave three unsuccessful love affairs as an example to all who may be thusly inclined. I, Marietta Stallard, leave my kid curlers to Alice Kent. I, Dwight Gordon, leave my ability to sleep in the assembly to Frederick Topping. I, Reggie Still, leave my fur-topped galoshes and my barbed wire hair net to John Jamison. I, Mable Peterson, leave the moth-eaten stuffing in my cootie-cages to Miss Thomas. I, Lucie Ramsay, leave the right to call the fire department when badly in need of a drink to Edith Ratts. I, Ray Coffing, leave to Mr. Gardner a pair of rubber-soled sneakers for use when greatly in need of information. We hereby appoint Miss McMahon as executor of this, our last will and testament. (Signed) CLASS OF TWENTY-THREE. The foregoing instruments written, signed and sealed before us, in the presence of each other, this first day of June in the year of our Lord nineteen hundred and twenty-three. REGGIE STILL. WILLIAM PERKINS.
