Mr. Haag's World History class appears busy, but we wonder what Mike Shoemaker and a couple of the other boys are thinking about. MR. GLENN ROBERSON MR. 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. (Social Studies Miss Anderson's class seems very interested in the chart on political parties which she is explaining to them.
