The twelve years you spend in the public schools of this community represent one of the happiest periods of your life. May this pictorial history serve as a memento of those happy and joyous days. My congratulations to the Journalism class for a job well done. MRS. MILDRED VANDOVER Elementary Principal We should make the most of everyday that we live. Our time should be used well. Time is the measure of our life, it is the reason for our existence and the essence of which our life is made. Time is not something that ends when the day is over and the deed is done, but when used correctly will qualify you for leading the best, the fullest and most useful lives possible. These contributes I wish for each of you. MR. FRED PATTY High School Principal I sincerely hope that, we the teachers of Neelyville High School, have succeeded in developing those characteristics in our students which will help them to meet the challenge of being good American Citizens, living in a free democra- cy. In return for the teaching ser- vices which we give to the students of this district, we expect the Neely- ville High School graduates to carry on in the true Tiger spirit, inspired by the high ideals and standards of this school, I am sure that we will not be disappointed in this expecta- tion.
