LAST WILL OF CLASS Of 1871
By Nellie Anibal.

Be it known to all that on this
twenty-fifth day of May, 1911, the
class soon to leave Pendleton high
school does hereby make known its
last will and testament which is to
be duly executed upon the departure
OF this class from high school.
The heirs, the class of 1912, are not
to break this will, and since to each
individual a valuable heritage is left,
we can decry no just reason for the
breaking of this document. To the
heirs we have tried to be most liberal
and hope that the gifts will be ac-
cepted in the proper, grateful spirit
Since We have made careful study
of the vital, motive and mental tenn
peraments of the members of the class
of 1912 we are able to quite accur-
ately determine those characteristics,
which, altho' they are necessarily
lacking during only the third year in
high school, will make their last
year more fautless, pleasant and
profitable.
Accordingly it is thought that
small portion of that remarkable ca
pacity for following out train Of
thought and for concentrating all
faculties upon one subject, which we
all know belongs to Louis Anderson
should be beneficently left to a Juni-
or who is somewhat rambling in
thought and who is rewarded for his
love OF variety, including everything
from snake-hunting to prize-fighting.
So We think an act of charity Is per-
formed by leaving to Ross Carroll this
splendid inheritance.
Then imagine the gratitude OF
Claud Hampton when he hears that
TO him descends a part of the judici-
Gus cautiousness of Ricahrd Devine,
whom we all know is over-solicitous
that more physical culture be intro
duced into the public schools. in or
der that posterity may enjoy the phy-
sical advantages from which he has
been barred.
To the practical. studious Carl Ea-
ron, we leave a part of the romantic
character of our restless perpetual
motioned class historian-Arthur
Jordan.
Perhaps a part of the faculty OF
imitation by the use of which Mollie
McDill could assume any mood she
chose and enact its proper NANTES
tations. could be wisely divided be
tween Hazel Young and Myrell Par
lette who will find that this gift will
enable them to be the center OF at
traction in most social gatherings an'
the spirit Of youthful enterprise as /
she from whom they inherit thi
blessing.
