Principal’s Message Dear Graduates, The season of commencement has come again and for many of you it is a time of conflicting emotions, a time of satisfaction upon reaching a goal long desired and long worked for, a time of sadness at the neces- sity of leaving familiar scenes and an ac- customed routines. For this experience to he worth something to you, it must aid you in some way to live better or more happily. The subjects you have studied here in school have been selected because of their value in helping you succeed in further schooling and on the job. Their ultimate usefulness lie in preparing you for citizen- ship, social living and critical thinking. The secret to both success and happiness can be realized by having done one ' s best in tackling the work which one finds to be done. This is good counsel whether applied to the vast world stage or to a corner in your community which is called home. May God bless you and firing you best of luck. D. O. Leatherberry Principal 9

Assistant Principal ' s Message Greetings to the members of the 1967-68 graduating class I First of all, ! am delighted to have joined the team that directed a great deal of your learning experiences during the twelfth year of formal education in our public school system of Granville county. I hope that by now you have made sense out of the com- plexity and diversity of our American society. It will be your responsibility to examine critically- -knowledge, skill and attitudes, and pass on to successive generation those be- liefs and values that are crucial to the maintenance of a pluralistic society. As you take leave from your position as a citizen and stu- dent in the G. C. Hawley School community, I would only remind you that in a free society, it is ’YOU” who decide’ your fate ! 1 hope the dialogues you have had with teachers and fellow students here at Hawley will help you to decide wisely even in the face of appealing alternatives in a broad range of possibilities. The Future is yours: command it? Mr. David S. {darkness Assistant Principal 10
