The many good friends we will surely miss. To the school staff, we give our sincere appreciation. For all of the efforts rendered for our education. Looking back now to our own first grade. We survey the progress which we have made. Remembering all of the happy school days. The blue one's now just seem a haze. Each senior is leaving on an unfamiliar route. Wondering what life in the future is all about. May we never regret the new life we now begin. For we can never return to begin It again. If we never meet again, may the Class of 77 Have a happy reunion someday In Heaven. —Beverly Tinsley POLK COUNTY FARMER'S ASSOC. WAL-MART PIGGLY WIGGLY WASHBURN S HOME FURNISHINGS Mena.
