SM TSS) ID'S IO) VY ‘50, have come to our the class of We, journey’s end; | shouldn’t say the end; | should say the beginning. It is the end of twelve wonder- ful carefree years together—years that in later life we will all love to look back over, and we will enjoy their beautiful memories. We, the Senior Class, first began to travel the path of knowledge in 1938. The years that fol- lowed were years of growth and adjustment. We carved our personalities, deepened our char- acters, enriched our lives and the lives of others. During all the years that we have gone to school, we seem to have enjoyed the last four years of school the best. It was thrilling when we entered the ninth grade to know that we were in our first year of By this high school. We felt very important. —s wweeo time we were really growing up, so we were al- lowed more freedom. There were the picnics that we went on and the short trips that we took. The basketball and baseball games were always exciting. As we advanced farther into high school there were many different clubs and activi- ties in which we could participate. One of the high points in our school activi- ties was the Junior-Senior banquet. As Juniors it was our privilege to entertain the Seniors. We all had a wonderful time planning for it and giving it. As we turn the last page in the year book of our schools days and listen to the last echo of cur footsteps in the dear old halls of Flat Rock, we sincerely hope that we are taking wiih us a knowledge of having accomplished something and are leaving behind a feeling that we have enriched ihe life of the school. We thank the teachers who have given us their guidance and understanding all through the years; but for them, where would we be today? We would surely not be about to slip over the threshold to a new and exciting life. Wilma Gordon, Class Historian
