ROSES AND FE RNS We are seekmg a newer world but fond memories of the past are very dear to us Our school days at dear Old Charlotte Hlgh are at a close but the door of knowledge will never be closed There rs a touch of sadness when we think of leaving our schoolmates and frlends but the thrill comes in seekmg newer things When we entered high school rn 1947 we might have been green but Just as happy as could be In the four years we have spent hene we have enjoyed many good activities To bring some of them back to our memories we list FHA and FFA initiation the trip to the Spout Springs even though we had to walk the trip to a Nashville Park remember two girls who were lost the Junior and Senior Banquets the many class meetings going to Nashville to have our pictures made the trrp to Austin Peay and a wonderful Senior Trip to East Tennessee and enJoy our trip to and from school No wonder the food in our lunchroom was delicious we had such wonderful cooks to prepare it First there was Mrs Welker then Mrs Harris and now Mrs Huff Who could help but enjoy our high school days with all the fine teachers around ready to en coinage There was Miss Miller our sponsor ready to help us do anything that would cause us to have a good ume and Mr Bennett was always willing Miss Southerland didn t mind too much when we talked rn bookkeeping class And we shall remember the kindness of all the others Wasn t rt fun to gather around the piano and sing? All of us must admit that Tucker makes a good looking grrl We had lots of fun in our Junior Senior and Beta Plays These are a few of the many things that have cause these four years to be ever unforgettable I would like to wish the Senior Class happiness and success as we seek our newer worlds Katherine Spann OKC Colors Blue and White Flower White Rose Motto To Seek A Newer World Sponsor Miss Eleanora Miller .
