HISTORY OF SCHOOLS IN THE VILLAGE OF EDWARDS The first school in the village of Edwards was opened in a log house at Shead's Settlement, about 1814. What was known as Shead's Settlement” was located across the road from the Brayton road near the island. After a few years, the log house could no longer accomodate the increased mumber of students and a stone school was built. This, at the time, was regarded as exceptionally fine and commodious. It was located at the southeast side of Main Street where the Electric Light and Powere Co. office now stands. From the first, the inhabitants of Edwards evinced a rather unusual spirit of liberality in the provisions made for the support of schools. At the first annual meeting it was resolved, ” that the town raise all the money for the support of common schools that they can law fully.” James C. Haile, Cesa Phelps and Wilkes Richardson were elected the first commissioners. John C. Haile, George All'en, and William Teal}, were named inspectors of common schools. For the school term ending in September 1877, 418 pupils were enrolled the the town and the average daily attendence was 188.77. Teachers of both sexes were employed but feminine teachers predominated The highest salary was $60. but the wages for female teachers ranged between $3.50 and $7.00 per week. The next school building was erected at the cost of $2,500. It w s a frame building, which stood where Royce Bullock's store now is. It was a one room structure. In 1884 there was one teacher and ninety pupils. In this building, the older students were seated near the windows at each side of the room—boys on one and the girls facing them from the other. The younger children sat sideways to the windows and in front of the others. In 1887 an addition was built to the school making it a two room building. Later, this addition was purchased by the Methodist Church d now forms the back part of the church; while the other part was bought by Freeman Andrews who made a garage where Lennox's now live from the lumber. In I898, a new one story school of three rooms and basement was built. Later a second floor was added for the high school, and used until 1936. Most people now realize that the next step in the development of Edwards school is centralization. FACULTY Kenneth Cv Smith Principal Clarkson College B.S., Albany State, Syracuse University, ST.

Before Easter a minstrel show Georgia Jubilee was presented. We were successful in our attempt to raise money, for we not only had our trip tc New York but we have enough for a trip by boat through the Thousand Islands. Graduation announcements and caps and gowns were ordered. Margaret Noble Is the valedictorian and Margaret Davis is the salutatorian of the class. While we write this history a graduation will complete twelve wonderful years of school for the entire class. CLASS PROPHESY The entire class is seated. The class prophet suddenly exclaims: Quiet, quiet everyone. I have a strange sensation going through my head. Why some one is trying to tell me something. The voice is telling me to relax and concentrate. Does anyone else hear anything? Beth Tinney- Do you feel all right? I don't hear anything. Do you hear anything Jimmy? James Me Ferran- No I don't hear a thing. Prophet- I must be losing my mind. Oh, the years are speeding by. 1947, 19 8, 1949, 1952, 1955, 1955, 1955. Something must be wrong. No more years are speeding by. I can see a big calendar of 1955 before me. January. I wonder what will happen during this month. Slowly, slowly, I can see a figure approaching. Who can it be? Why, it llli looks like George Grant. It can't be Shortly after high school George went to China to work for the X Standard °il Company. Things are getting clearer. In a minute I shall be able to tell you all about George. Ah Ha! It is very clear now. George has quit his Job as vice president of the Standard Oil Co. He and his Chinese bride have Just landed in New York. Now George is going to sell flashing men's clothing for the Toonerville Valley Corporation. George is fading from my sight. Maybe 1946 will come back. ★ I wonder what this means. No, my magic power is coming back. The calendar has turned another page. Who do I see but Beth Tinney. She is wearing the most wonderful fur coat and hat. I think I can tell you how much it cost. Why, $1478. Beth was working in her flower garden in 1948 and struck gold. Beth has banks and banks of money now. Now I see Bertel Paro coming up a sunlit valley wearing the cutest pinafore you ever saw. The next day after graduation Bertel and her dream prince left for Souther California. Bertel is a genuine senorita. They say that her Spanish husband is very handsome. By the way Bertel has two children. Another leaf of the calendar has turned over. It is March, the month of Margaret Davis birthday. She has just given a birthday ball for everyone in Cornell who has a birthday in the month of March. Did you know that Margaret is happily married to the president of Cornell University? I can see another figure approaching now. It looks like someone I should Know. I believe it is Dean Lytle. It is Dean. He has the funniest costume on. He doesn't look like an American. He looks like a Scotchman in that short skirt and Scotch hat. He organized a band shortly after he left Clarkson. That failed so now he plays bagpipes. Honestly they sound very nice. Wait just a minute, a page is turning. A blonde lady is just leaving the children's studios at Hollywood. She has never her three children with her. June, Joan, and John are appearing in a movie called, My Mamas' Cares. The picture will be released next week. Stella Walters' husband is very proud of his family. Whiz, hear that roar. Why, it is an airplane landing over on the school yard. A figure is getting out of the machine. He is removing his goggles and waving. It is Ronnie Holly. Ronnie has just broken the speed record for flying a passenger plane across the United States in 20 minutes 38 seconds. Ronnie intends to stay In Edwards for the next month. During that time he will giyeflyxng lessons free of charge. Just consult him.” � «Ah, it is now summer. I can see a magnificent swimming pond. Who could be coming out of the water? Jimmie Williams! Jim is a swimming instructor for over 300 pin-up girls in Hollywood. Jim is so good he can do the swan dive and the Jack knife at the same time. Yes, those girls are pretty, especially the brunitte in the red suit.” Now I see Rachael Me Ferran. Only she doesn't like to be called that. Her nick name is Blondie.” Everyone keeps asking her if she is the Blondie that used to play with Arthus Lake. Rachael now earns her living taking tickets for the Barnum and Bailey Ringling Brothers Circus. She says it is mot exciting. She meets all types of people.” The year is more than half over. We have visited most of the class of '46. My power will soon be gone. Quickly I must tell you the rest. ”1 can see a sign on Fifth Avenue, New York City, that reads Dorothy's Pet Shop. The shop belongs to Dorothey Cole. She has a most porsperous business selling and housing all kinds of pets. She is now tending a pet kangaroo for the former Margaret Truman.” ”1 can see over seven million people reading magazine articles put out by Mildred Hitcnman. She can write all types of stores;” Every paper in the country has urged her to write editorials for its particular paper. Mildred can make her typewriter go faster than any other person in the whole world. She developed that talent Just two years ago.” The sun is so bright I can hardly see. Look out! or you will get run Into. Phyllis Averiall is skiing down Mt. Marcy. She is going faster than the wind. Phyllis is considered one4he ef best skiers in the sport factory. Bhe has practised since her high school days.” Throw it to tfcird. That is Carl Butler yelling to the first baseman. Two years after getting out of the army Carl was hurriedly snapped up by the Boston Red Socks. He has over 75 million fans. Yes, and on the sidelines Carl makes model airplanes. Listen to that singing. I believe it is the best I have ever heard. It is coming from Jimmie Me Ferran. He is singing I Love You! Remember how we used to swoon over Frankie? Well that is just what the people are now doing over Jimmie. And most of the training came from Mrs. Smith. My power is slowly dying. Maybe I shall never be able to see the future again. Yes, there is one more figure approaching. It is Steinmitz. That is what we used to call him. Really it is Frank Silsby Give him a feig hand for hfc has just completed the work of television. There is not one single thing about the subject that Frank has not developed. He has the credit for bringing it into American homesl we never thought it when we were in school, but Frank married Jane Withers. They have two adorable children. They spend their summers at Lake Placid. The calendar has flapped shut. I can tell you no more. From this calendar we can tell that the class of '46 has really set their mark in the world. MENORIES Mr. Smith1s Christmas tires. The boys sweeping the library. The Mock Wedding. Durwood cleaning the office. George playing cards in his ghost regalia Mr. Smith tipping over in the office.

CI S Po � n A milestone we have reached today In this winding road of life. Tomorrow we'll be on our way To take up with the strife. As we think of the tomorrow With its problems to face, Our thoughts are filled with sorrow As we start on life's race. At this school we've spent four long years At studying and learning, Now our eyes are dimmed by tears Our saddened hearts, by yearning. Oh, surely we have the courage To meet life with a grin, And as each day we end one page Then await, the new one to begin. So now we bid farewell at last To carefree high school days, As we join the ranks of classes past And each go our separate ways. HIGHLIGHTS OF THE YEAR 1. Junior Prom 2. Minstrel Show 3.
