The first lap of our journey was to reach Fresh- manvilie. Our conductor on this first part of cur trip was Mrs. Tressie 3. Trussel. There were lots of flag stations along the way and be- fore we reached our first goal several had drop- ped out. After nine months of hard studying and with the conductor's help, we reached Fresh- manville. After resting three months we began the next part of our journey. On this trip there were 59 on board and our conductors were Coach and Mrs. Bill Isbell. This time we were headed for the town of Sophp- more. The second part of our journey passed quick ly enough and we had soon reached our next goal. Again we rested for three months before be- ginning the rest of our journey. Bach goal was beginning to be a little harder to reach. It seemed as if each part of the trip brought more mountains to climb and mere bridges to cross. After our second rest, we picked up new conductors, Mr. C. F. Light and Mrs. Lou Ellen Hawkins, and with 63 on board we started for Juniorville. We met more and more obstacles and some of the passengers became discouraged and got off at the various stations along the way. When we reached the end of the third part of our journey there were 52 still on board. We were all very eager for the three month rest to come to an end, because we could see from a distance the lights of the great city, the Ci- ty of Graduation. We boarded the train with 55 on board for the last part of our journey with Mrs. Loui ’.Vest as conductor. Joyously we began to push aside the obstacles confront- ing us. It seemed that the last part of our trip was harder than any of the rest. It was so hard several dropped off and after the first semester we changed conductors. With Mrs. Floe II. Henderson as our new conductor, we plunged m 0 4$? deeper into the task before us. We climbed more and higher mountains and crossed larger bridges than ever before. Even with the last goal in sight and making the last part of the journey some dropped off. Cur conductor was very helpful and seemed to know the roughest places. We reached our final goal without too many hard- ships and with 48 passengers left. There was much rejoicing when we reached the great city, but under this there was some sadness because we knew we would miss our journey each year. Cur journey to the city of Graduation has only given us skill in climb- ing difficult peaks. Now as we go out to face life and to build a career for ourselves, lets us use our knowledge and skill to combat other obstacles we will meet. Maxine Glowdis ! ' CLASS PROPHECY OF l?46-47 Crcssville, Alabama May 21, 1954 Dear Mrs. 'Vest: Here it is several years since I’ve seen ycu last.
