'Q 'E gaculty And Administration Looking into the past we find that Thomas Ief- ferson once said, We owe it to do, not what would perish with ourselves, but what would remain to be respected, and preserved through other ages. Thom- as Jefferson, writer of the Declaration of Independ- ence and architect of the University of Virginia, left something of importance to the generations of to- day. In the present year, 1962, with rockets and atomic bombs prevalent in our lives, it is necessary that each member of the faculty of Albemarle High School work to their utmost to create an educated and cultured generation of young people that shall be preserved and respected for many years. Each year hundreds of students come under the instruction of the faculty who have the power to mold their character. And someday this same fac- ulty will look with pride upon these outstanding citizens.

Q fin Memoriam Albemarle High School was saddened in October, 1961, by the death of Mr. James Welford Estes. Mr. Estes, a teacher of In- dustrial Cooperative Training, had been an instructor at Albe- marle High School since the school was opened in 1953. He had begun his 36th year of teaching. Although a native of Greene County, Mr. Estes taught for 29 years in the schools of Albemarle County. He had served as coach, class sponsor, and guidance counselor, in addition to his classroom duties. Someone has described Mr. Estes as a gentle man and rightly so, for he always had a kind word and a helping hand for every- one. For his sterling character, his keen insight and practical advice, and his noble life, james W. Estes shall always live in our memories.
