Class of 1957: So do not doubt the phrases, no matter how often heardg accept them for what they arc, the truth, and resolve that you will do your best to accept your responsibilities. I close in the hope that we have in some way helped to prepare you for these responsibilities.

DEDICATION Four years ago we, the class of 1957, entering the halls of Erskine Academy for the first time met an understanding and sympathetic person who was pre- destined to have a great influence on our future. Each year, as we advanced from class to class, we became more closely associated with her working as a team both in our business subjects and in senior activities. As an educator, she untiringly encouraged us to strive for successg as a fellow worker, she has helped us to reach our goals, and as a friend, she has entered our hearts. Our appreciation for her endless contributions cannot be expressed by words alone, we are, therefore, dedicating our yearbook to you, Mrs. Ward Miller, as a token of our love and respect. THE CLASS OF 1957
