FREEDOM'S CRY A free moon is shining once again Hearts are free from ache and sorrow. The world has started again to say- There's hope in the future: tomorrow. Men coming home from yesterday's war, Ready to start anew, Ready to open opportunities door- Their life s work to do. There are tears shed for those who d1dn't return, Who offered and gave their lives. We are sorry for those hearts who yearn, For the ones who paid the price. We are now out of the dread and hate which we so long endured, Of the bitter strife, which we survived-- Our bitter wounds are cured. The freedom cry is out again, It echoes far and wide, May we not forget in our thoughts of peace-- Of those who fought and died. Our war is won, our cry is peace, We look toward the setting sun, Ready to work and greet the new dye-- Our war has been fought and won! Irene Crawford ll 46N

-- --nineleenpaf4fad- - CLASS HISTORY It was in September of the year N1neteen-Hundred-and- Thirty-Four that 54 l1ttle,w1stful,sh1n1ng, faces appeared in the First Grade Room at good old Jefferson Township School. As you have probably guessed by now, these little 'Angels seeking Wisdom' were starting to school on that famous date long, long ago. Of those who started out in this class there are some of us who are still going. They include: Opal Knn Steele, Phyllis June Stegall, Madeline Thompson, Marte Jo McCarty, Bob Black, Charlene Burden, Jim Burtch, Donald Coblentz, Irene Crawford, Bill Hal1er,Arthur W1sehart,Rcse Ann Reid, Paul Brawley, Junior Duffield, Jesse White, Marilyn Laird, and Marilyn Day. Barbara Jean Reid and Pauline Zurwell also started with us but Barbara entered Miami this year and Pauline was married during the Christmas vacation. Doris Jean Miller and Mary Jane Shock Joined us in the second grade, and we added Addie Bell Borden to our list in the third grade. Let us skip a few years in our downstairs Journey and go up to the seventh grade where we were viewing, for the first t1me,the upstairs and where we received our ambition to become Seniors someday. In the eighth grade we acquired some more new pupils. They were and are: Patty Culbertson, Phyllis Turner, and Jim Middaugh. Here we met Mr. Edwin H. Young,a very grand person to know. We all soon learned to love him and great- ly respect his teaching. He was famous for his: 'I'll thump your wooden head for being dumbl' We are very sorry to say that our beloved teacher passed away last year, but never will we forget him, and his presence in this school is everlasting. Here we are!! Freshmen at last! We're in high school now! Bud Holthouse came to Join us this year. Aren't we important, though, now? As we go through the Sophomore Class, we are begin- ning more and more to anticipate what we will do next year and for years to come.
