miss Annie Benton Fuller)

miss Annie Benton Fuller
IOcaIa, Fla, Marion County,
We, the Senior class of 1918, of
the Ocala High School, of said State
and County, being of sound mind and
!disposing memory, and realizing the
uncertainty of this transitory life,
do hereby make this our last will
and testament of said class, hereby
revoking and annulling all other wills,
| by US heretofore made We desire
that our funeral expenses and all
other liabilities be paid and fully dis
charged, as soon as may be after our
decease. The balance of our estate,
real and personal, and mixed, where
soever situated of whatever kind and
character, we bequeath as follows:
Article l. To our beloved faculty,
who have always held US to strict
obedience and regarded US with
amazement, we give our themes and
all other documents they have re-
| ceived during the past year. We
urge and earnestly request that they
utilize the said valuable manuscripts
in furthering the literary pursuits of
the under classes. We also leave to
grateful thoughts and kind feelings,
in return for their patience during
the past years of our high school
course.
Article To Mr. Cassel,s we leave
an adding machine to be used for the
purpose of getting the monthly re-
ports out a little sooner. We also
bequeath our unbounded admiration
for his ability to say the same thing
in so many different ways.
Article 3. Unto Miss Conibear, we
leave our entreaties and prayers that
the basketball team of 1919 receive
sufficient coaching to avert the feel
ing of humiliation and disgrace which
o. II. S. has suffered this year. We
would respectfully suggest that they
strive to win at least one victory dur
ling the season.
Article A. To Miss Doke, the class
as a whole wills the latest book on
EMITTED Articles for the Soldier
Boy" We have grave fears that the
war will be over before she finishes
her khaki sweater according to the
directions she now uses. They are
evidently copied from those in vogue
during the civil war.
Article 5. To Miss Williams, we
bequeath our sincerest appreciation
of the noble stand she has taken in
regard to denying herself that beau
tiful ring and considering a govern
ment instead. Miss Williams does
this because she believes in Country
First"
Article 6. To Miss Marie Pitch
ford, we give the seventh period in
which to think pleasantly of US. Also
we bequeath her Victrola and rec
ords with her favorite expressions,
which are, eve will not discuss that.
Take your desks Immediately and
don't get out of them. Consider the
source" We trust that this will re-
lieve the strain on her voice.
Article 7. Unto Miss Isabel Mays,
Wage Garner and Taxpayer, we un-
conditional1y bestow the privilege of
addressing the next Florida Legisla-
ture on the question of "Woman's
Suffrage" This state is in need of
such competent leadership that we
are sure Miss Mays will be most in
fiuential in securing the passage of
| the suffrage amendment to the con-
stitution.
Article 8. To Miss Porter, we
leave baton, also our appreciation
of her successful training of Pearl
Fausett's voice. We feel that the bird
like qualities of the said voice reflect
glory upon the class as whole.
| Article 9. Unto the Freshmen, we
beaueath our lofty ambition that they
may profit by the unexcelled exam
pie set before them this year; and we
are inspired to bequeath them the
intelligence of Agnes B., hoping that
it will prove instrumental in their
attainment of the highest attitudes of
renowned success.
Article 10 To the Sophomores, we
leave all our old stumps and bits of
discarded paper. 1t is our wish that
the above mentioned articles be sold
at public auction and the money re-
ceived will be more than sufficient to
defray the expenses for their class
rings if they purchase them at the
same house from which the Juniors
did.
Article II. To the Juniors, or the
future Senior class, we donate our
esteemed position in the school, Sen
Tor privileges and class day stage
fright All this to be carried out pro-
vided that the above mentioned class
conduct themselves with fitting dig
nifty during the coming year thereby
rejecting due credit on the class of
1913. As a special privilege, we be-
quest our high checker collars, to be
worn with their caps and gowns next
year.
Article II. 1t is our wish that
