The Faculty of the Grade School joins me in conf gratulating the Bervalon Staff on this twentieth an' niversary of the publication of the Bervalon. It has been a privilege for me to be associated with the Senior Class of 1958, since you began your travel on the road of education twelve years ago. May you, as graduates of 1958, cherish the memory of your school days in the Grade School as well as in the High School. It is my sincere hope that each student has ad- vanced in knowledge in proportion to the progress of the world. The Satellite Age offers you a chalf lenge to do great things in this world of ours. May you accept this challenge and go forward, keeping step with the signs of the times. Remember the words of Longfellow in A Psalm of Life , as he said: Let us. then, be up and doing, With a heart for any fateg Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait. GEORGE S. DIVELY Grade School Principal Once upon a time there was a hardy pioneer named Mountaineer who built a sturdy home high on one of the rich rooffgardens of the world. He then took unto himself a most beautiful and cultured bride whose name was Education . As time went on, their family came to include healthy children who worked zealously to become versatile students of the arts and sciences, and robust champions of the arena. Qver the years, the IvIountaineer family grew until they were many hundreds in number. just twenty years ago, the Mountaineers began recording their family records in wellfprepared vol' umcs, across the covers of which are emblazoned the letters BfEfR-VfA'LfO'N. Our heartiest congratulations to the Mountain' eers on the twentieth birthday of their family album. ELLWGOD P. VARNER High School Principal E111

awe sczmz aww, We, the class of 1958, wish to express our gratitude to the grade school teachers who started us on our way to knowledge. In the grade school they taught us the fundamentals of reading and writing. Throughout the years we participated in many activities. Une of these was the annual operetta. ln the spring we were very husy practicing for the May Day prof gram. The fourth and fifth grades assembled together the last period of each day for chorus rehearsal. Then, in the spring, the chorus attended the annual county music festival. Each year we were invited to attend the junior and senior play matinees. As we pause now to look hack over the former years, we realize how much we owe these teachers, and we know we shall never forget them. Li-vrzx l,llU'l'U Mahel Shultz.
