GLAD TO MEET —SAI) TO PART Hour years ago. we the graduating class of '4 4. met with shy glanees i.nd uncc:taln words of friendship. Today we have cast aside these glances and have came to look each other jquirely In the eye. We havear.ep'.eJ the challeng.-that the world offers us. ami we are ready to t lep out Into the world with a feeling of deep regret that we must hid our teach-era. eliminates and our school farewell. To our classmates, we have learm-d the value of cooperation ami true friendship. We have worked side by side down the years, we have played and lived together, we have known the Joy of fair-play, we have known the satisfaction of give and lake. To our teachers, we wish to take tills time to thank you for your agement you have given us from wonderful guidance and oticour-tho day w-e met on these grounds, to the day that we are leaving. You have taught us that the most precious thing any man. or anybody. can have Is the good will of others. You have taught us patience. honesty and tolerance, ami you have given us the reassurance that we Can do It. Where our faith was torn down you built it up a:aln. where our burdens sc -me I too heavy, you helped us to shoulder them and many other ic'ponslbllltlcs. Words are not si fftcicnt to express our gratitude to you. You have worked so diligently with us. and we truly realize and appreciate al Ithat you have done for us. and please believe that even the extra-hard assignments that we mumbled and grumbled about, have been for our good and we thank you again and again. To all the underclassmates, the Senior Class wishes to leave this little hint with you. think fairly well of youiself hut don't get puffed up with your own importance, because the bl.-goi Cu- balloon the flatter It look when the air Is h-t out: so ih all you can now. because we are depending on you to keep the standards or Morris and to set even better ones. We are hoping that you will profit as much by our mistakes find failures as by our success. Wc close with this little poem: The man who never had to toll. Who never had to win Ills share Of sun and sky and light and air. Never became a manly man, Hut lived and died as he began. Good timber does not grow in The stronger wind, the tougher enso: trees; The fartlieh sky. the greater length; The more the storm, the more the strength; By sun and cold, by r.iln and snows.

When present conditions can’t bo helped. Well, here are a few things we must consider: I am often wondering about you. You. who had lo give up (your Pleasures for the good of a country wherein the laws do not show Justice In every state. I know the task seems hard when you rcau the newspapers and read how we. as a race, are being treated, especially In the southern states. We wonder If our service-men arc getting similar treatment in the various camps. Fight men! We. as a race have something to fight for. We must have equal rights a ml Just Ice.

He created all men equal, therefore we must pray for III help. •n most southern states the white man still looks upon us as slave , slave for them. But my dear service men please don t feci Interior to them. We are Just a good as any race, but we haven't had the chance to prove It. There you have it. We must fight for a fair chance to prove that we are as good as any. The majority of the whites are afraid that we are going to get a chance. -They know we have abilities and we must fight in order to exercise our abilities. We. as Ainerlcanx have got to prove to the whites that we haw got something to fight for. !. •! us. In the meantime, keep this In mind, we don’t want to start a civil war Jo achieve what we want, but we want to go about achieving our alms In the quietest possible way. You are not alone In this fight. We here on the home-front are one hundred per cent with you. Don’t become too discouraged but renew your courage and fight the harder. God Is a Just God. and we must pray for him to deliver us. When your days seem dark and dreary, remember the poet said: The day Is cold and dark and dreary. It rains and the wind Is never weary. The vines still cling to the mouldering wall. And at every gust the dead leaves falls. And the day is dark and dreary. —Rebecca King—'’46. Compliments of NU-IDEA SCHOOL SUPPLY CO. Sumter. S. C.
