“My best wishes to you.” These are the words I have written over and over again, when pupils have asked me to autograph their annuals. Time and again I have wished that I could say something more appropriate, but these old familiar words seem to express best what I want to say to you. Here at Waynesboro High School we are building for the future, and it is for the future, when you will need courage, persistence, tolerance, and under¬ standing, that I extend you my best wishes and the expressed hope that what has been done here will help you. The true purpose of education, someone has said, is to cherish and unfold the seed of immortality already sown within us; to develop, to their fullest extent, the capac¬ ities of every kind with which God who made us has endowed us. We have tried to develop a few of those capacities; you must strive to develop others. We hope we have given you the tools with which to develop them, and we extend you a sincere wish for success in your venture. J. L. Johnson, Principal t Left to Right: Mr. J.
