Y ln-Q A Salutatary I, as salutatorian, speak on behalf of the members of the Senior Class of 1959 in welcoming you tonight to our graduation exercise. It is indeed a warm welcome that we extend to the faculty, school board, friends, schoolmates, relatives, and most of all - to our beloved parents who have made it possible for us to have an honored place on this stage tonight. As we walk up, 'one by one, to re- ceive our long-awaited diplomas, we shall bring to an end our high school days. Then we shall turn our faces toward the future. But what lies a- head for each of us is unknown for we shall meet our destiny little by little. We feel that we have learned so much during our twelve long years of school. We feel that now we are pre- pared to meet what-ever obstacles we might be confronted with. But are we? Are we fullyprepared to shoul- der the heavy responsibilities of adult life? Are we emotionally strong enough to go about solving our most difficult problems in a calm, yet thorough and intelligent manner ? We do sincerely believe that our high school training will surely prove valuable as we attempt to perform our duties to ourselves, our loved ones, our country, and to all man- kind. But yet, we realize that we have so much more to learn. Much of this we shall learn by our mistakes 5 but actually, what better way is there to learn lessons which we can never forget? We knowthat our climb toward suc- cess in whatever we choose to do will be a long, weary one. But we have warm courage and high hopes for the future. And if we retain the confi- dence and understanding of each of you here tonight, we shall most cer- tainly put forth our best efforts and the results will surely prove favor- able. So, in welcoming you here tonight, we are hoping that during this grad- uation exercise you, too, will be sharing our sweet memories of the past and the inward excitement and happiness of this great day. May you look forward with us as we dwell on thoughts of what tomorrow may bring. May you share with us our happiness, our sadness, and our hopes of lives filled with only the very best of every- thing good. Again, we bid each of you a most cordial welcome. Salutatorian Edna Grace Price

Our Junior marshals were: Bertha Jack- son, Edna Grace Price, Bill Lynch, Judy Price, Lerlene Kilpatrick, and Georgia Benton. When school began in the fall of 1958, our group which had been re- duced to 23 in number, began our Senior year. Our sponsor was Mrs. Imogene Price. Our class officers were: President-Bill Lynch, Vice- P r e s . -Frazier Hardy, Secretary- Ste v e P r i c e , Treasurer-Georgia Benton, Reporter-McKinley Price. When we received our class rings in October, we were a happy group of Seniors I In January we gave our play, It's A Great Life. The days began moving swiftly, and before we knew what was happening the Juniors gave us our banquet on May 1. At last we drew near our aim - graduation. It came so quickly that we could not quite realize that at last all our worries and heartaches had been of some avail. Only a few days after we began practicing for our graduation exercises, we walked dovsm the aisle to get our diplomas. Graduation was over and we were now ready to go our separate ways and accomplish our goals in life. Linda Cobb Historian , 4' las! Will ,Ami Zcstamcut We, the Seniors of 1959, being of sound minds do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament. To our faculty members we leave our sincere appreciation for the time they have spent trying to teach us the things we were unwilling to learn. To our beloved and wonderful teacher, Mrs. Imogene Price, we leave our apologies for all the worries and troubles we have caused her this year. We also leave her our love and apprecia- tion for being so kind, patient, and tmderstanding with us. The following valuable personal bequests, free- ly and full given, should be treasured as a remind- er of the generosity of the class and the indivi- duals thereof. We trust these responsibilities will be assumed promptly and bring important results. I, Frazier Hardy, do will my ability to be in the wrong place at the right time without getting cau- ght to C. C. Price. I, Lynda Cobb, will my ability to forget what should be forgotten to Kaye Dawson. I, Jimmy Brown, will my ability to skip school to Jimmy Grady. I, Bertha Ellen Jackson, will my Geometry book and my intense interest in Geometry to Judy Rai- ford in hopes that Mr. Creel will teach Geometry instead of Algebra II next year. I, McKinley Price, will my excess weight to Marilyn Rouse. I, Judy Price, will my ability to always be re- gular with the school bus to Linda Price.
