THE SENIOR YEAR BOOK 21 val' - - flew My boyhood friend, Arthur Gervasini, now comes into view as the newly-elected honorary president of the Lady Hairdressers' Union . We always did know that Arthur was duly appreciated by the gentler sex and this is added proof. No place of business visited in this mental peregrination has disclosed the whereabouts of four of my classmates: Eliza- beth and Catherine Roan, Helen Cherry, and Helen Wills but the mystery is clearing up as I gaze upon four happy homes, each with its gay garden and cheerful hearth fire. May the fortune of every member of our dear class of 1928 be as pros- perous and contented as the scenes before me! But they fade. The spirit of prophecy departs! The heavy veil of mystery is again drawn! I can reveal no more. Ladies and Gentlemen of the radio audience you have just been listening to a prophecy given by Mr. Mahahm Kah- rinseer, of India. Station W. H. S. Sinigar, India, now signs off at 9 :35 P. M. Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. Charles K. Campbell. Women drivers insist magnanimously that they only expect half of the road 1 It's comforting to know that, but still, it would be nice in emergencies if they could decide which half it is that they want. Officer on the bank- Hey, you! No swimming in the reservoir. I'm gonna arrest you as soon as you get out. Man in the Reservoir- Ha-ha! That's one on you. I'm not coming out. Officer- Why not? Man-'Tm committing suicide. Percy- Well, we've stopped the crime wave in Scotland. Fred- Fine How did you do it '? Percy- By charging for room and board in the jails.

'-f'.w . ,- us' We, the Class of 1928, realize with the deepest regret that our happy and somewhat boisterous days in this worthy institution of learning are soon to end. Since we have always carried on all our work and play in the right and proper man- ner, we now find it only Htting to bring our affairs as a class to a legal close. We, the Class of 1928, being fully possessed of Sound mind, memory, and understanding do make, publish and de- clare this our last will and testament, revoking and pronounc- ing void all wills formerly made by us. Our effects, both those which the fates have bestowed upon us and those which our natural talents have acquired, we dispose of as follows: Item One-We give and bequeath to the Freshmen the following advice: In case of fire never run, Green things don't burn g be in bed every night at eight o'c1ock sharpg and last, but not least, always copy in everything the high and noble examples of the Seniors. Item Two-To the Sophomores we leave directions on how to remove the chairs from the Hall, hoping they, may profit by this advice and thus be able to hold a successful Junior Prom next year. Item Three-To the Juniors we ,leave the possession which it is hardest for us to part with- Our Senior Dignity, because we realize that they are sadly in need of it. We also leave to them ROOM 7, the HCLEANESTH room in the School, hoping th-ey will keep it spotless as we have always done. Item Four-To our teachers we give and bequeath days of calm and tranquility and nights of blissful rest. No longer will they be tortured by our silly questions and foolish an- swers, no longer will they lie awake worrying how To get us
