947 Le Overflow CLASS OF 47 We have known each other for years — Since we started in the very first grade — lust tiny little tots we were then With twelve full grades to be made. We ' ve loved each other with warm hearts Since that glorious first day at school. We learned our reading, ' riting, and ' rithmetic, And, of course, the golden rule. The golden rule we have followed From beginning to the end. Cooperation came from every one With each new task we took in. Our days of parting will soon be here, And we will be saying goodbye To the classmates whom we have loved In the days already gone by. As we go out into the world alone Each traveling his own way May God watch over us seniors And keep us from going astray. GAYNELLE STANLEY, Class Poet CLASS WILL STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA, COUNTY OF DUPLIN. We, the 1947 Seniors of B. F. Grady School, being sound in mind (or as sound as we will ever be) and body, do decree our last will and testament. It is our sin- cere desire that there shall be no fight among our heirs. ARTICLE I Section 1. To B. F. Grady School — the best high school in the State — we leave our thanks for the training that we have received here and for a hoard of highly- cherished memories. Section 2. To our principal and to all teachers we will our gratitude for their patience with us and for so earnestly attempting to make us, at least, look intelligent. ARTICLE II Section 1. To the Senior Class of 1948 we leave that extra year in school. We also leave to them our high school class room and sponsor. There is no class dearer to us than the Juniors and we will to them the best of luck! Section 2. To the Sophomore Class we will a stern command that they give a banquet next year at the Goldsboro Hotel as elaborate as the one the Juniors gave us this year. Section 3. To the Freshman Class we leave a warning: Work! It takes 16 units for graduation. Section 4. To Mrs. Jesse Outlaw and her lunchroom helpers we will our gratitude for a good dinner each day. ARTICLE III Section 1. Mary Edna Waters wills her honor of being conceited to Thelma Jones. Section 2. Alice Rogers wills her good sportsmanship to Ruby Harrison. Section 3. Irene Jones wills her beautiful handwriting to Bryant Smith. Section 4. Louise Carter wills her popularity to Mary Rose Sutton and her school bus to the first one who asks for it. Section 5. Mittie Ruth Wallace and Gaynelle Stanley will their ability to debate to Carmen Turner and Bernard Kornegay. Page Twenty-three
