A possessor of these rare gifts lives among us as an im¬ portant part of our school life: Mrs. Greer, may I turn in this money? Mrs. Greer, may I buy a pencil? Here ' s the absence list, Mrs. Greer! Mrs. Greer, when can you send off this transcript for me? With remarkable patience and understanding, Mrs. Marie Greer, the principal ' s secretary, meets this continual barrage as she presides over the office, and it is her lively interest in the world around, and her good-natured approach to life which has inspired our theme. ; r : ;.i‘. am .m ter at , . th f st a ff ,-,, . y ...-■ “ ■ : ■ : ' . : c . •• : ' -i affectionately de d i c a te s to Mrs. Marie Greer this 1954 edition of the Washington High School PACKROMAK.

CLASS OF 54 I bear the torch that enlightens the world, fires the imagina¬ tion of man and feeds the flames of genius. I give wings to dreams and might to brawn and brain. From out the silent shadows of the past I come, wearing the scars of ' struggle and the stripes of toil, but bearing in triumph the wisdom of all ages. Man, because of me, holds dominion over earth, air and sea; it is for him I ease the lighming, plumb the deep and shackle the waves of ether. I am the parent of progress, the creator of culture and the mold er of destiny. Philosophy, science and art are my handiworks. I banish ignorance, dis¬ courage vice, disarm anarchy. Thus I have become freedom ' s arm of democracy, the hope of youth, the pride of adoles¬ cence, the joy of age. Fortunate the nations and happy the homes that welcome me. The school is my workshop; here I stir ambitions, stimulate ideals, forge the keys that open the door to opportunity, the master of human destiny. I am the source of inspiration, the aid of aspiration. I am Irresis¬ tible Power. I am Education. Barbara Swindell Class Poet CLASS HISTORY We have reached the destination for which we have been striving for twelve years. As we approach the end of our journey toward higher education, we look back upon the memories of our past years. Though we often felt like the goal for which we were striv¬ ing was beyond our reach we have finally reached that goal and today we stand on the threshold of our commencement. How well we remember the year 1942 when we first began our education. We be¬ gan this journey with vigor and zeal and as we finished each year’s work we looked for¬ ward to the next until we finally reached Junior High which was the first event of major importance in our school life. Naturally we looked forward with optimisim and enthusiasm to becoming Freshmen. This day soon arrived, in fact, much sooner than we had anticipated. Before we knew it we were Sophomores and our only thoughts were of the two re¬ maining years which we had been looking forward to for so long. Our Junior year was one of excitement. The class secured money for the Junior- Senior by selling magazines and this project was enjoyed very much. Undoubredly the most outstanding event was the day we received our class rings and we realized that we had only one more year to go. Then came the Junior-Senior, which we slaved over for such a long time. Finally the big night arrived and it was quite a gala affair. After we had been capped we felt ourselves truly Dignified Seniors and we entered our Senior year with quite a feeling of importance. As during the preceding year, the Junior-Senior was a very thrilling event. We enjoyed very much being the guest of the Junior Class on this occasion. Finally came the climax of these twelve years--Class Night and Graduation. All too soon we had reached the end of the journey. We realized that soon each of us would go his separate way, some to work, others to college, but wherever we go we will carry with us the memories we have shared together in Washington High School. HISTORIAN-- Jack Cherry Joe Lilley Donna McKinley LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT We, the Senior Class of 1954 of the city of Washington, county of Beaufort, and state of North Carolina, being of sound and sturdy minds and memories (as sound as possible), do hereby make, publish, and declare this to be our last will and recalling any will or wills made previously. In witness whereof, I, Agnes Rossie, the testator, have set my hand and seal this third day of June, in the year of our Lord, one thousand nine hundred and fifty four.
