hereby grant to Ruby Ames.

halls of learning to Esther Caldwell.

Hazel Brant and Oliver Blazer we do
hereby bequeath to Luella Cleveland
and George Fordyce.

ellis to George Donnelly.

Our vamp, Lloyd Rathman, steps
out and gives Harold Engel half

concentrating power may be lavished
elsewhere than on school books.
We will let Christine Swanson full

beauty, Alma Frozen.

disposition, in addition to his Ford, to
Esther Caldwell.
Roy Ronneberg's solemnity and
worldly wisdom to Erling Anderson.
Our human dictionary, Ruth Hut

thoritative, and fortuitous, remon-
strating predications, which sometimes
may be similar to galimatias, to EN-
ma Walter. Ut cannot was.)
Manda Norman imparts her melan-
choly giggle upon Luella Cleveland.
We also give unto the Junior class

has been so frequently commented up
on by Miss Thomas. We do ordain
that they profit by our past influence
and good example, and that they
graduate next year, as grand and no.
