6 few As I was walking down the street today, I dmanced to meet an old man who at once attracted my attention by the brilliant purple and gold which were fly- ing from his buttonhole. Looking into his face, I perceived that he had such a benevolent, intelligent countenance that I stepped up to him and introduced myself. He received me pleasantly, and after conversing a few minutes, I re- marked upon the ribbons he was wearing. WWe1l,W said he, 'I'l1 tell you about them, I'm celebrating the anniver- sary of my graduation day. You see my class graduated from the Palestine High School on May 19, 1948, just fifty-six years ago, and that is why I am wearing our class co1ors.' 'Indeed,' commented I. 'And I suppose your class was quite up to the av- erage.' 'Up to the average,' he almost shouted. 'We1l, I should say we were. Why, it was the most remarkable class that ever graduated from the finest High School in the land. Now just listen while I tell you a thing or two about that class. 'I remembered 12 members were enrolled in the first grade of Palestine school in the year of 1936. Our teacher was Miss Myers. Among the students which remained in the opening class through twelve years are Jay Mikesell, Anna Dill and Patty Wilt. Joe and Carl Graham Joined our class during the lat- ter part of our first year. I imagine something Joe will remember for a long time about his school days, was the first day he attended our school. We went on a hike and when we arrived back at school, Joe was missing. So after going back to the place of our hike, we found Joe sitting on a tree stump crying because he was lost. Our second grade was so large that it had to be divided into two classes with one group under Miss Adavier and the other one under Miss Bayman. Mr. Noll was our third grade teacher. Although some of our classmates left during that year, Juanita Lindamood came to fill their place in our grade. Mrs. Dille was our fourth grade teacher. When we started our fifth year in school, we had a new teacher, Mr Stephens and some new pupils also. They were Gloria Stevens, Betty Laux and Joan Sharp. Mr. Stephens left about the middle of the year and Mrs. Elliott, who has been teaching hezesince then came. She was also our sixth grade teacher. CCont1nued on the next pagel
