Hass History ACT I In the fall of 1940, thirty children both eager and scared, entered the Bethel Elementary School and began their first act in the drama of education. Miss Matt Exum, now Mrs. Larry James, was the director we found to help us become acquainted with the fundamentals of school life. With the helping hand of Miss Humphrey, we completed the second scene of the first act without much trouble. In completing the first act of the drama of education, we had slowly, but surely, come to realize what to expect in the future years. Miss Blanchard was our director during the third scene. ACT II We were directed by many during Act II, including Miss Mayo, Miss Ellen- berg, Mrs. Hammonds, Miss Staton, Mrs. Whitehurst, and Mrs. Jones. Some im¬ portant things happened during this act, two of which are very outstanding in our minds—the trip to Raleigh in the seventh grade and the joining of thirteen Mayo students to the class in the eighth grade. At the conclusion of Act II, we were eager to dramatize the most important phase of our education, high school. ACT III Last but certainly not least, we began the best years of our lives. With Mrs. Lamb as director, the curtain slowly rises showing the first scene of the third act. It was during this scene that we really began to act as young ladies and gentlemen were expected to act. We were, at the end of this scene, becoming accustomed to high school life. Miss Hinnant was with us in the second scene. Things were really clicking at this time. We were now bold Sophomores instead of the scared first graders. A very happy, exciting, and wonderful time awaited us in the third scene of act three. Our director in this scene, Mrs. Latham, has proved to be one of the greatest aids with our high school activities. With her helping hand we hit suc¬ cess in both the Banquet and Junior-Senior Play. As the final scene draws near, we are now a little anxious and somewhat sad. The annual will be the highlight of the scene. It will require work to get it out but it will be worth the effort. We hardly know what we would have done without the help of Mrs. Weeks, Miss Mills to us. She provided the guidance that we needed so during the last act. She is certainly a teacher that we will never for¬ get. Our deepest appreciation is issued to Mrs. Weeks, our last director.
