THE CLASS WILL
SUSIE Erwin


We, the members of the senior
class of the ocala High School, of the
county of Marion, and the state of
Florida, being of sound and
disposing mind and memory, but con-
scious of our inability to remain
longer in this present school life, do
make, publish and declare the follow
ing 10 be our last will and testament;
hereby revoking any and all former
wills made by US at any time.
We, the members of the aforesaid
class, do hereby will and bequeath to
the Marion county school board the
balance in our treasury, ninety-seven
cents, to be used as the nucleus of a
fund to build platform in the study
hall. 1t is our express wish that this
platform shall be at least three feet
in height, so that the students in the
rear of the room will not be compelled
to strain and stretch their necks out
of joint to see our popular principal
while he is giving his little lectures in
chapel. To the forthcoming seniors
we do will those promised and long
hoped-for privileges which were never
obtained by US.
We, John Bats, Alfred MacKay,
Sam Burford and Welsh Dewey, the
"Big Four" do hereby will to the
junior boys our unquestioned right to
visit cooking class when the girls
make cream puffs.
I, Emily Dorothy Schneider, do be-
queath to Ruth Hardee part of my
surplus height. To Patsy Gillen,
do will my place in domestic science
class, together with my apron, cap,
and all the equipment. Since Patsy
was so disappointed that he could not
enter the class last year, especially
since he had an apron and cap already
made, do most willingly make him
this bequest, and with it goes my
cooking partner, Ruby Fausett.
! I, Ruby Orris Cappleman, do be-
queath to Ella Mae Rivers my direc-
tions for making a magnet which is
positively guaranteed to attract all
high school boys Melt together equal
parts of a CHEEKY disposition, inter
esting conversation, merry laughter
sauciness and three parts of curiosity
When these are thoroughly melted
pour the mixture into mold; when it
is hard rub for several minutes with
dimples, and the magnet is produced
ready for use. To Kathleen Spencer
l hand down the sole right to exceed
the speed limit in reading Latin. In
this way alone have / been able to gel
ahead of the boys.
/, Sam Kemp Burford, do will tt
Louise Sanders my famous motto
''May I skin through this day." Tt
accomplish all the motto infers, / sug
gest that she never do today wha
may be done tomorrow; never do her
self what she can persuade others t.
do for her; delay the progress of thu
: class as long as possible by cleve
questions and remarks. To Avale'
/. Edwards / bequeath an instrumen
3 which will, without error, keep tn
:, place in Latin for her while she ma.
: be enjoying other things. Since thi
: device is one of my latest inventions
have not had the opportunity to US
it much myself. To Dick Dewey,
4 bequeath the right to modest the girl
. by breaking their pencil points at an
! and all times, and hope that he wi
get as much pleasure out of this priv
= ilege as / have.
I, Mary Vivienne Eycleshimer,
: bequeath to Mabel Aiken the priv
N ilege, which have had exclusively;
: giggle at anything, any time, and an
place. In defense of my sense c
a humor always followed the old pro
: verb,
/ Laugh and the world laughs wit
v. you,
Y. Weep and you weep alone"
'g Since laughing is an exceller
1T weight producer sincerely hope tn;
Iy Mabel will make use of this privilee
st at every possible time. To Katie Ma
r Eagleton do will my reputation {
ut the greatest piece of precocity"
is the class.
ry I, Alfred James MacKay, do herel
On will to Arthur Crago my cute al
e. cunning ways, which have been &
al object Of envy to the other boys
