They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts. From: As You Like It, Shakespeare Editor cee Jean Osteen Assistant Editor - Business Manager Literary Editor Dottie Cleveland Jere Hyder __ Norma Huggins Art Editor Martha Mintz Picture Editor _ Carolyn Shytle DEDICATION She is a good teacher. She inspires in her pupils the desire to improve. We do the tasks she assigns, not merely to please her, but because she has somehow made us believe that we will become more useful and desirable citizens for having done our best in her class. She is efficient and thorough in her own work, and she inspires efficiency and thoroughness in us. She is a popular teacher, but no one says she is “easy.” Only when we have done our best does she praise us. Therefore, her praise is cherished by those of us who have re- ceived it. She is our friend. When we were in her civics classes, as freshmen, her sympathetic advice always proved most helpful. As seniors, we have learned to depend on her sincere and wise counsel. So, with admiration, gratitude, and love, we dedicate the 1958 PARADE to our teacher and our friend, MRS. KATHERINE GOSS. Page Four PRINCIPAL MR. E. L. JUSTUS A.B., University of North Carolina M.A., Columbia University Principal Ask any student of Flat Rock High School, new or old, what he thinks of Mr. Justus, and that stu- dent will immediately begin to tell you what Mr. Justus has done for him. If every student was given the opportunity to write her or his feelings for our principal, we would perhaps, in our combined efforts, have a worthy speech of praise and gratitude for our devoted counselor and friend, Mr. Justus. FACULTY We appreciate and respect our teachers and the high calling to which they have responded. “A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops.” Henry Adams MRS. E. O.

In this drama, as in all others, there are poor performances, mediocre performances, and excellent performances. The players who give the excellent perform- Leones met: uy Raestieao eae S. mm ral ances are the stars. Some people might say that the actor who possesses the most inborn talent will be the star, yet we all know that even 7 the greatest cannot do his best without training. Training is 4 what the 1958 Seniors have been getting for the past four a years. It has gradually changed them from amateurs to pro- y fessionals. They are now approaching the end of their ap- prenticeship and each may choose the part he or she wishes E: Bt sen prishs aii tates Ree csr a Th len « RTA ope to play. Senior, what kind of performance are you going to give? Judging by their accomplishments here in high school, we believe we can safely say that they will give the best performances they are capable of giving. The class of 58 may For instance: Lo Etat mu aR ee ame Set am Seg Died ts ears oo ue 2, ts 3 ere: RR SS even produce some “greats. There are many who have been capable leaders during these four years. From this, we deduct that we have potential _ leaders of our country in the class. Who knows, Jere Hyder, sg : this year’s Student Body President, or Jerry Guice, Senior 7 Class President, may someday be President of the United vr States. Fs We have several who have done outstanding scholastic 2 bs work. There is no reason to believe that they will stop using i their intelligence to the best advantage.

Best Personality, Brenda Fowler and Jimmy McAbee. JUNIORS The Juniors are V.I.P.’s—very important people. They manage the Snack Bar and publish the school newspaper (quite naturally receiving the profits from both). The juniors are well represented in all activities and organizations here at school. In the spring, part of the money which has been earned by the sweat of their brow is spent to give a beautiful Junior-Senior. We are proud of this group which has contributed so much to every phase of school life at Flat Rock. The class officers pictured above are, left to right: Jimmy Buckner, president; Alice Barnwell, secretary-treasurer; and Nelson Engle, vice-president.

The majority of these students have already chosen whether they will take a college preparatory course or a business course. They are well on their way toward their goal and though they are working hard, they still have fun. Several of the tenth grade girls are on the cheerleading squad and the sophomores have also furnished us with several notable basketball players. Besides the above mentioned, there are many other talents represented in this class. From all appearances the sophomores are going places.

A good synonym of the word is beginners. The people who come under this classification may not agree that it is an appropriate word, though (“After all, you can hardly call someone who has been in school for nine years a beginner!”.) Still, the freshmen are beginners. They are beginning life in a new realm — the realm of high school, and they are beginning to change. These changes may take many forms, but the most important one they are beginning to make is the one from a child to an adult. This change is made evident by the fact that they begin to take courses which will prepare them for the life they hope to have as an adult. The girls may take home eco- nomics and the boy who plans to be an engineer may begin his mathematical career in the first year algebra class.

These students undoubtedly feel one of two ways: that they are standing at the brink of a fathomless pit into which they will inevitably fall next year, or that they are at the foot of a steep slope which they will begin to climb at the end of this nine months. We hope that the latter feeling belongs to the majority of them because those of us who have come further realize that the goal is certainly not impossible and that the struggle to reach the top is actually just as important as the conquest of the peak. If we are allowed to offer one word of advice to you, eighth graders, well say this: Re- member, high school is a precipice to be scaled and the secret to the success of mastering this mountain is diligence. The Class Officers are; (seated) Ronald Brooks, president; and Patricia Sitton, secretary- treasurer, and (standing) Edward Griffin, vice-president.

The first of the duties of the editorial staff is that of choosing the theme. Then they must Elizabeth Warlick, assistant art editor; Norma Huggins, literary editor. think of ways to carry it out. The individual ed- itors see to the arrangement of the book, the writing of the copy, and the making of pictures.

Business Staff We sell our yearbook below the cost of publi- cation and in order to prevent a loss on the part of the school, it is the job of the business staff to provide this extra money through the selling of advertisements to business establishments in our area. The business manager sells the students their subscriptions to the PARADE. Almost every one of the books is sold before the date of arrival. The business staff is also in charge of the distri- Malvern West and Jere Hyder selling an ad to Mr. John Sinclair. bution of the annual. There is a great deal of responsibility placed upon each member of the PARADE staff. If it were otherwise, in all probability there would be no Flat Rock annual. Because everyone has ful- filled his responsibilities with just a little push from Mr. Kilpatrick, the sponsor, we feel that we have an excellent book this year.

Meetings are held on the second Wednesday of every month. The purpose of the organization is to promote ideals of honesty, service, and leadership among the students, to reward meritorious achievement, and to encourage and assist students to continue their education after high school.

It’s not just a private opinion that the school couldn’t get along without our voluntary receptionists. The girls who belong to this club de- vote several of their free periods each week to answering the office telephone, taking messages, typing absence lists, putting up teachers’ mail, and trying in many small ways to make Mr. Justus’ day smoother.

These are assisted by a large group of girls and boys who have assigned duties. With the help of Mrs. Semaschko and Mrs. Brown they have succeeded in producing an out- standing monthly publication.
