Here we were taught reading writing and 'rithmetic under Miss Wall and Miss McWirt. We then advanced on to Miss Spencer and Mrs. Faris for our second year of adventure at school. We still thought it was wonderful, and took in everything told us. Our third year was spent under Mrs. Bass and Miss Dixon. All of our free hours were spent in the joy of playing jail and jumping rope. Miss Britton and Mrs. Essie Robertson took hold of us for our fourth year. That year a few of us had the privilege of taking a tour of Williamsburg. The following September we entered the Hfth grade under Miss Mitchell and Miss Dickerson. We could hardly wait for the next year when we should be able to go upstairs with the big boys and girls. Mrs. Willie Short, Mrs. Annie Cobb, Mrs. Ocie Hubbard, and Mrs. Rosa Robertson taught us in the sixth and seventh grades. In the seventh grade many of us were in the operetta given by the music teacher. This was something different in school, but since then, one has been given annually. In the spring, came commencement! Our faces beamed with joy at the very thought of being in high school. Though the fresh- men were supposed to be very meek, we weren't and poor Miss Winn and Miss Kibler tried to tame us down. Our second year in high school was spent under Mrs. DuPriest and Mrs. Hagberg. We were now sophisticated Sophomores and looking forward to our junior year. This being our Junior year, we sold magazines to raise money for the Iunior-Senior Banquet. We presented the Junior Play, He Couldn't Marry Five, during the Hrst part of April. Next year we hope at last, to march down the aisle to the tune of Alma Mater. --H-if I5 its--
