to teach young people in Alleghany County Study hall is one of the many time consuming elements in Miss Gleason ' s school day. With a pensive expression she signs library permits for Jack Kelly and James McGaha. Miss Gleason appears very much at home standing be- hind her desk. Although Miss Gleason has a busy schedule, she always finds time to give extra help.

Miss Gleason gives time, service, and self Mjss Lucy Gleason First in Miss Gleason ' s daily routine is checking her mailbox. Class, do I detect something other than Latin going on? These are familiar words that are often heard in Miss Lucy Gleason ' s Latin class. With the years of experience she has had in teaching young people, she has become very aware of what goes on among them. Miss Glea- son is one who searches for and finds only the best in people. No student of Miss Gleason ' s has ever successfully completed a course taught by her without being both enlightened and in- spired by the interest and concern she con- stantly shows to each of her students. Miss Gleason will always be remembered as one of the few teachers whose problems, wor- ries, and tensions are never carried into the classroom, in teaching, she seems to possess an unlimited supply of patience. When the final bell rings, her day does not end, because her life as a teacher has always been a full time job. Her dedication to youth and education wih serve as a guideline for others who wish to in- struct, guide, and encourage young people. Miss Gleason ' s deep understanding and con- sideration have won her the love and respect of the students of ACHS. Next year, her students will miss seeing her enter class with the familiar briefcase and hearing, Oh, my mercy dear, as she ex- presses her exhaustion from climbing the stairs. Althgugh she will be gone, those of us for- tunate enough to have been taught by her shall never forget her. Miss Gleason has truly done more than her share to help high school stu- dents throughout Alleghany County. Her tire- less effort and sincere interest in her students will keep her memory alive in our hearts. It is to one of those rare individuals whose actions, words, thoughts, and deeds have brought joy and happiness to countless num- bers of people that the ALCOVA staff and the students of ACHS dedicate the 1966 ALCOVA.
