LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT In the Name of God, Amen:—We,the Senior Class of Cedarville College in the year 1922-1923, being of sound and disposing mind and memory, do make and publish this our Last Will and Testament, in order to as justly as we may distribute our interests in Cedarville College, the village of Cedarville, and in college life, among succeeding young men and women who shall be students as we have been. WITNESS: First, That part of our interests which is known in the law and recognized in the sheep-bound volumes as property, being almost inconsiderable, we hesitate to make any account of it. Yet on the other hand, realizing that our dear Prof. Jurkat, long.Treasurer of the College has no safe in which to keep all the valuable papers entrusted to his care, we are glad to bequeath to him the safe we so highly prized because of its ability to "STOP THIEF." Second: Our right to be Seniors being granted to us only once and for the period of one year, it is not ours to bequeath that privilege. However, we do bequeath to the Junior Class, and to other classes in their annual turn the attitude of making the last year in Cedarville College one of pleasure and profit to all. Third: We give to succeeding classes the right to vie with each other for the honor of having the most"pep" and originality, yet charging them always to remember that the qualities of ladies and gentlemen are expected from students of Cedarville College. Fourth: We bequeath to the members of other classes the right to be leaders in the various sports and activities of student life, such as spreads, skating parties, class plays and mid-night parades, reminding such members that youth and the spirit of jollification do not remove the boundaries of the rights of good, upright citizens who are more loyal in answering the summons to Morpheus'realm. Fifth: We leave to our successors the privilege of sitting about in the camp-fire circle on old Indian Mound and fashioning castles in the curling wreaths of smoke which rise from the dying embers, or of gathering in any other place where they may muse on what the future holds in store. Sixth: We leave to our successors the right to go out into the broader walks of life seeking to make the world better, and purer, and a finer place in which to live, even as we are trying to do. And, lastly, we leave to our Professors and Instructors in old Cedarville College our very best wishes and a double portion of our good will, asking them only to continue being kind and helpful to students who come under their care and instruction.
