Senior Class History By Rheta Corwin N 1927 a memorable event took place in the small but mighty city of Mt. Gilead. The class of 1939 began its battle for education under the watchful eye of Miss Beckley, who was at that time the instructor of the first grade. After a year of turmoil and hardships, a large per cent of our original group advanced a step and entered the second grade. There We were introduced to the eccentricities of spelling and arithmetic, which of course, we came to hold with deep regard. The next four years of our schooling, namely, the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth grades, were spent drilling on the fundamentals of elementary subjects. We all now know that a good foundation in fundamentals is essential to success in high school. In due time, the seventh milestone was passed with a blaze of glory and we found ourselves in the eighth grade, which was just like the seventh grade except that it was harder. There we met what proved to be the greatest source of trouble to both parents and students-those profit and loss and compound inter- est problems. After struggling successfully through these hardships, we became Freshmen. It was in this grade that we suffered the stings and insults of the upper classmen plus a good sound paddling which was our initiation. This was perhaps the making of us, for up to that time there had been no doubt in our minds that we were not the cream of the crop. After numerous secondary troubles, such as Latin and Algebra I, we left the green part of our life and became honest-to-goodness upper classmen. Our Junior year was a huge success Cin our opinionl, and we hope it will never be for- gotten by other classes. The Junior-Senior Banquet went over with a bang. Our Junior Class Play, The Night Owl was a success, and provided laughs for everybody. The Senior Class Play Lookin 'Lovely was also successful. Our high school days are coming to a close and we are sure that each student will always have fond memories of Mt. Gilead High School.
