CLASS POEM Dear J.G.H.S., the day has come, The day for us to go, And oh! How we’ll miss you, More than you’ll ever know! Only twelve years ago, on that first day. The time did not seem nigh. When we would have to say, “Fare well, Dear John Graham High.” But no—you ' ve made the time seem short, The days have glided swiftly by. Each week has seemed only a moment. Farewell, Dear John Graham High We’ll never forget your guiding hand, And from you we’ll never stray, But we, the class of ’forty eight Have come to the parting of the way. You’ve brought us through the thick ' n thin. You’ve guided us with hand so strong. And now we want to thank you For showing us right from wrong. Words cannot express the way we feel, And there are tears that would easily flow, But we’ll look to the future you’ve prepared us for, As onward we strive to go! Farewell, Dear John Graham High. Elsie Reams. 11 CLASS HISTORY In September, 1944, we began our high school career as very “green” freshmen. Since we had been in the basement with the high school in the eighth grade, we did not feel as lost as we could have. Mr. Dean and Miss Lassiter were our homeroom teachers and in the early spring our grade mothers honored us at a picnic in the Bower’s pasture. After a delicious lunch we all enjoyed a game of softball. After a much too short summer vacation we found ourselves at school once more, this time as sophomore under the direction of Mrs. Stewart and Mrs. Coleman. At times we thought we would never leave the ninth grade, but most of us made it. This year we discovered that we had an actor in our class, for one of our boys was chosen to play the leading role in the Junior Play. Again we were favored by our grade mothers, this time with a weiner roast at the Country Club. Slowly but surely we were climbing to the top, finding ourselves juniors in 46 with Miss Barkley and Miss Yeattes as our sponsors. We lost Miss Yeattes at Christmas, and Miss Woodall, a hometown girl, took her place. Fifteen members of the class were dubbed members of the Beta Club at a party and dance in the school and nine of these were marshals at commencement. By the time we were juniors, almost all the boys were taking part in some sport, and many of the girls were playing basketball. Our class was well represented in the Monogram Club. Two of us were chosen as members of the annual staff, many of us were on the Seer staff. The biggest event of the year was the Junior-Senior Banquet in April. The Home Economics girls prepared and served a delicious dinner at the Country Club. A delightful program was given and this was followed by a dance. We found that all the study and work was not in vain for our long- hoped-for Senior year came at last and we were ready for it 33 strong. Everyone was kept quite busy with the annual, Seer , sports, and, last but not least, school work. We ordered our class rings in the early fall and made plans for a Senior Play and a trip to Washington.

AMERICAN LEGION READ AJ URINC the next six years, half a million teach¬ ing positions will be available in the United States. Thousands of men and women are needed to replace inadequately prepared teach¬ ers now in the schools, to fill the vacancies caused by normal turnover, and to meet the needs of the five million additional children born during wartime. There is a need for ele¬ mentary and high school teachers, college in¬ structors, principals, superintendents, and edu¬ cational specialists of every kind. Now you know the law of supply and de¬ mand. When your kind of training and ability are needed, offers for it are made more and more attractive. That is what s happening in the teaching pro¬ fession. Many communities are taking steps to improve their local school conditions—some are granting salary increases—some states are establishing definite minimum salaries for teachers. The ability to teach is a special gift, a valued talent, and no profession provides greater per¬ sonal satisfaction than teaching, ff you are a “born teacher ’—make your decision now to join this honored profession. For “Our Teach¬ ers Mold Our Nation’s Future,” and America ' s future has need of you. before you decide on your profession Printed as a public service by EDWARDS BROUGHTON COMPANY Printers : Stationers : Lithographers : Engravers Raleigh, North Carolina AUTOGRAPHS WARREN COUNTY MEMORIAL LIBRARY 105589 This book may be kept FOURTEEN DAYS A fine of TWO CENTS will be charged for each day the book is kept over time. +) 1 371.6 12879 Turner . ea.
