DEDICATION To one of the grandest teachers and friends the High School has ever known, we bid farewell. She was always kind and understanding. We shall always remember that friendly smile that greeted each and all of us when we needed aid. A more understanding person was never known among the class of '47. No matter what our troubles might have been she was always right there with a helping hand. As our dramatic coach, she was unequalled. Sometimes we wondered just how she put up with us. As our teacheriand friend, there was no comparison. As our school days finally come to an end, we can show no greater ap- preciation, as humble as it may seem, than to dedicate our year book to this grand person, and say, Thanks for all you have done for usf' . , THE CLASS OF 47.

H C3111 5U1Hc11turia11r IN MEMORIAM God hath many ways to take us from this earth. Raymond G. Theriault, member of the graduating class of 1947, was born September 4, 1928, and died, following an automobile ac- cident, March 30, 1947. The son of Mrs. Stella Parise Theriault and Leo Therriault, Raymond was the oldest of a family of live boys. As a student, in both studies and athletics, Raymond was very active. His name was continually on the term honor roll, and he was among the few selected to be in the National Honor Society. A high school letter man, Ray- mond played on the varsity teams both in baseball and in baketball. His friendly and considerate ways, his warm personality, quiet sense of humor, and quick boy- ish grin, have imprinted in every one of his classmates, teachers, and friends, a memory that will always have a place in their hearts. E. Knight. He calls some old, some young, and sometimes some at birth. He beckons us when we sleep or sometimes when we are awake, It makes but little difference, It is that, when He sees fit to take one, He always takes the best that He can find. For then He's sure that they are decent, wholehearted, good and kind. Yes, God takes those Hrst, and He knows what is bestg It may be that they've been so fine that they should have a longer rest. These leave behind them, us, and we all pray, dear God, That we may see them for a little while when you call us. M. Soule.
