CLASSES Stairway to Ach.ievem.ent Throughout our years at Montgomery Bell Academy, we have been constantly changing, reshaping, maturing. This continuous developing of our character has occurred in a different fashion for each of us; how- ever, our classes and companions have played a major role in every case. Especially du ring our last two years, we have been acutely aware of our outstanding preparation for college and also for our life’s work. But our learning need not halt with such material aspects, important as they may be. Like a carpenter, we use our tools to build slowly a stairway to reach our goal. Every step we construct consitutes an inte- gral part of our preparation. At the head of the stairs lies our life’s goal . . . we prepare for it now, be it service or self-aggrandizement. How is it, then, that our classes mold our destiny? All our associa- tions with our classmates— the warm friendships and the infrequent discord, our proud achievements and our inevitable failures, the gay parties and the glorious feeling of being a part of a fine school com- posed of a great number of fraternal young men— will remain with us always as memories of one of the most wonderful periods of our lives. It was at Montgomery Bell Academy that we learned the self-discipline to study and not to give up in the face of test after test of the hardest calibre. By seizing opportunities as they come our way, we discovered a new and richer way to live: make the most of every second, for an- other may not be on its way. Each of our daily experiences has helped to erect the staircase to our ultimate goal. This structure, our preparation, has not been easy to build. But few worthwhile objects or ideals are! It is only by arduous labor and by wanting a goal enough to sweat and faint from exhaustion that we can mold our lives to make a difference. In varying degrees according to our efforts, our preparation at Montgomery Bell Academy will en- able us to climb to the goal of our choosing. —Bobby Wood
