LIBRARIES ARE NOT MADE; THEY GROW. Students are not born with knowledge; they grow with understanding as they learn the proper use of the library facilities and as they read and learn to interpret the printed thoughts and deeds of men far greater than we.

In addition to these events, they gave a program at Washington School which included readings and two one-act plays— A School Bus Romance and The Case of the Crushed Petunias. At this program they introduced the MCHS Speech Chorus which is the only one in this region and one of the very few in the state on either the high school or college level. Miss Mastin's speech class has enjoyed their many activities this year. C ancjuaye ancf cSpeec 2 MRS. JEWEL WOODROOF MISS CAROLYN MASTIN

JOHN SNIDER History is the image of the past through which we can learn why and how past events have affected our lives. It is a mirror of the future which will lead and guide us in unknown ventures. Other social studies help us to live and work more effectively within our own communities and to better understand the cultures of other countries and the problems existing in today's world. MRS. LOUELLA ANDERSON MR. GLEN WHITT MR. ROY FOSTER The students listen attentively while Mr. Snider discusses American History with them. Mr. Roberson teaches geography as Mr. Whitt watches anxiously.
