Show fate at the hands of our elder classmen and that it is the common lot of all. Therefore in this, our last will and testament, we, the class of '16, do bequeath to the class of '17 in all good feeling, the right to make it lively for their under classmen and also the one great privilege we have heretofore enjoyed-that of sitting on the front seats in devotional. When we were Juniors a class came into school which made an impression not only in numbers but in their capacity for work. Our respect for this class has ripened into admiration for our achievements and we wish that they may have power of discrimination in their undertakings and also the power to work under wise direction. In this, our last will and testament, we leave to them the task of en- livening school activities. Let your endeavors be within the school, for on you depends the success of the activities. Then to those little ones whom we have guarded as an older brother, we leave the right to assume the attitude of dignified Sophomores ignoring the fact that you ''know not" and assuming" that you know. Then, in parting from our dear old Weber, we feel that our hearts must not be our guide. The call of higher education takes us from the school we love and makes us realize that it is not that which we desire as much as it is that which is best for us that we seek for. We reverence the educational as well as the moral standard of the school and with hearts full of love and respect, to you we make our final adieu. Junior Notes As usual the Juniors are leading the school in everything. By leading we mean not only guiding, but also attracting. On Saturday, March 25, the class play went to Hooper. The show was progressing nicely to the pleasure of all present, when the results of the Junior attracting power walked in. These results were our friends, "The Seniors." They were feeling rather happy, and to make a long story short, we will refer you to these Seniors and they will tell you how it feels to have a "real live constable" after them, and also how they like "Hooper mud." "The Bo'sms Bride." our class play, has certainly made our class and school famous. We have been to Roy, Taylor, Hooper Weber and Huntsville, and each place it was a great success. We recently received a letter from the State Penitentiary, thanking us for our thoughtfulness to Hoken Olsen while playing at Huntsville. The letter also stated that he had enjoyed himself and that since the show he has not been one half the trouble to his keepers that he was before. We feel now that a great responsibility is falling upon our shoulders, namely, that of taking the important place of our graduating friends. The Junior class wishes to congratulate class '16 and extend to them the earnest hope that they will be successful in every undertaking in their future life. |
