As we floundered on waves of ignorance and uncertainty, our sponsors. Miss Elizabeth Cody and Mr. Gaylord Davis, steered us into their docks where we set our first an¬ chor. It was in this beginning that we found our light was very dim and uncertain. Then in the fall of the following year we entered school life as silly sophomores. We were then more interested in school because of the many clubs and athletic games. We joined in everything to make us a well rounded class. About twelve sophomores were invited to join the Honorary Beta Club. Then in 19 50, we entered school as jolly juniors. We could now see what progress we had made and that our light was really shin¬ ing. Under the direction of Miss Mattie Sue French we gave our Junior Play, The All Amer¬ ican Family, which was a great success, even though we had to give it in the gymnasium because there wasn ' t an auditorium at Edney¬ ville. In spite of the crowded situation we found a deeper sense of responsibility and began to realize the meaning of real team¬ work in all your activities. •Senior C ic After many days of planning and preparing we gave the Junior-Senior banquet on April 27th with a Dixie-Negro theme. Miss Elizabeth Cody and Mr. Odell Griffin, our sponsors, help¬ ed us in making this an event we all shall remember. Then we entered our last year of our long journey, as dignified seniors, in the newest, most modern building in Henderson County. As we gathered in our classroom, we found that we had lost quite a few members. Then we began to realize how near we were to the end of our school journey. Mrs. Elaine M. Burroughs was our sponsor. With our deepest appreciation we thank you, Mr. Nesbitt and the faculty, for your patience, kindness, and helpfulness all during our school life. As we complete our tasks, we leave Edneyville High School to find our posi¬ tion in life. Maybe some will continue their education while others will make other plans. But as we leave with pride we shall remember. " Not for just an hour, not for just a day, not for just a year, but always, " our days at Edneyville. Class Historian CLORENA NIX Page Sixteen HL Jud Witt and Testament We the members of the Senior Class of Edney- ville High School having completed our journey through the land of knowledge and having reach¬ ed the goal in full possession of sound minds, find that during our high school career we have ac¬ cumulated a considerable estate, common sense, experience, and a vast store of earthly treasures.

Someone has well said, " We ask for strength and God gives us difficulties which make us strong. We pray for wisdom and God sends us problems the solution of which develops wisdom.
