agp THE BLUE AND WHITE E39 Last Will and Testament Two years and twelve months ago our contractors brought forth UPON thls land 3 new Schocg' conceived in perplexities, and dedicated to the proposition that the other school was too crowde , and that therefore more room was needed. Now we are engaged in preparing for Graduatlon' testing whether this school 'or any other school, so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. VVe have meetings in this school, we come to decide which portion of the front or back field shall be a final resting place for the scholars who here gave their lives that these teachers might' live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this, but in a larger sense we cannot dedicate, we cannot consecrate, we cannot Graduate until we have made our Last NV1ll and Testament. I Wle shall not attempt to bequeath to you too much-as one famous man bequeathed to his children the pleasure of sunlit days and starry nights, long summer holidays and the pure delights of winter, Howers and birds, sea and sky-for they are not ours to give, but yours already. But what we do will, will be a ha' pence for each out of our small sack: First-to all whom it may concern, we hereby do hand down the pleasant duty of coming at precisely 8:30 in the morning, and leaving at 4:00 in the afternoon, orbol reporting after thinking hours for friendly conferences with authorities, or like interesting situations. Second-to all teachers, we leave one drill and funnel apiece for lightening their labors in extreme cases, and also a large tool box with other necessary implements for adjusting the scholar. To them, too, we leave all the solid delights of esfpounds. ing knowledge, and collecting papers. Third-to our esteemed principal, we bequeath the enlightening task of conducting chapel exercises, administering justice to the wicked, filling excuse blanks, and making the school a success in general. Fourth-and now, to those who from their restless position as juniors, are to rise, with all mystical hocus-pocus, into Seniority, we hand down the grandeur of snob- bing the Freshmen, teasing the Sophomores, and being in generalwimportant! Theirs is the pleasure of making speeches in auditorium, holding dances, winning . honors, and doing things according to their mellow ideas. . Fifth-to those entering the realm of juniordom we bequeath that which is neither large nor small, but which is aboslutely necessary for any junior-the art of im- itfating a Seniorg along with that a jovial spirit with which to arm themselves every Monday morning. Six-to those who are to become Sophomores, yet behind the curtain, there is willed plenty of practical training in foot exercise, running for excuse blanks: and the whole of the noon hour for accomplishing odd jobs. such as wrangling, preparing the afternoon work, or butting into forbidden class rooms. Seventh-to those who shall be Freshmen, we willingly bequeath all the jovful moments spent in doing the chores, obeying the Seniors, staying from 4:00 to 4:30 now and then, and playing hookey with zeal. VVe also allow them one nail apiece, upon which to hang their surplus excuses and arguments. Eighth-to our faithful janitor, we will one half of the work he has to do now, so as to exclude the collecting of vanity cases from the Auditorium: also the privilege of 21tllTlOlllSl'lll'lg small boys and girls who persist in scattering paperg likewise of burning any stray gym shoes he may find. .Ninth-necessarily a small bequest to Mr. Kinsey,-one unloseable baton for directing chapel singing. ' Tenth-so, in the course of events, we must bequeath to the scholars who take their lunch at noon, the art of keeping quiet and eating at the same time. Thus it has been written! Sic Sit! E. E.
