It will be the call of a youth that has passed, never to return. May the turning of these pages serve to remind you that just as our class ring is a living symbol of never-ending friendship, ever-binding unity, and the lofty ideals which our school upholds, so our reflections of the images in the lives and ideas of her students in various phases of human endeavor and remind us of the happy hours spent at E.

His warm, cheerful smile, hearty devotion, and sincere encouragement have been invaluable to our advancement and well-being. We shall never be able to repay him for his undertsanding attitude, his competent direction, and his willingness to assist us in our times of discouragement and greatest Through thoughtlessness, we have seldom expressed our gratitude for his untiring ef- forts, which, we feel quite certain, he has often thought were hardly appreciated. But we do heartily appreciate everything he has done for us; his time, patience, ef- fort, and genuine interest in the advancement of the young people he loves. And Gray- son, we love you, too! In sincerest gratitude for all he has done and is doing, we proudly dedicate the 1957 Pioneer to Mr. Grayson Yates. 6 Mr. Joseph C. Gilbert s0!4 ) fe To the class of ' 57 I extend my very best wishes. I shall always remember you as people who are deeply interested in making the greatest efforts to improve your school and your community. I am certain that you realize that the most important thing in your lives is your contribution to society. The important thi ngs have never been what you get out of life, but what you put into it. I am also certain that your segment of the Long Gray Line will be a very special one. To you goes our deepest appreciation for the production of this year ' s PIONEER, and most of all, for be- ing our students. With very best wishes for your future, c. Joseph C.
