Administration Few tasks are completed without first having been planned. The job of exe¬ cuting these plans requires one who has a knowledge of the task to be done and skill in planning and directing operations. It goes without saying that the better qualified persons in a job will produce the best work. The new addition stands strong and erect because men of skill and knowledge administered the plans for the construction work. The Administration of Waynesboro High School has done its job well. Evi¬ dence of this is shown in the excellence of the scholastic standing of the school. The Administration has planned and directed the activities of the school to the best advantage of the students. Our proud, but not haughty, spirit is a shining example of the good work of well-qualified persons who, as a group, have built the student body into the outstanding group that it is.

Dedication When we were tots, we played with blocks and made simple little structures. Although we have grown older, blocks are still an important part of our life. These are the blocks upon which we build to become adults and take our place in the world. Almost always there is one block that is larger than the rest—one block that gives us more of an upward boost than the rest. Nearly always there is someone who gives us more help and moral support than anyone else. One such person might inspire in our minds a feeling which was genuinely expressed by Henry Wadsworth Longfellow in a verse from his immortal, A PSALM OF LIFE. “Let us, then, be up and doing, With a heart for every fate; Still achieving, still pursuing, Learn to labor and to wait.” The Senior Class of 1956 has unanimously chosen the one person who it feels has given us, the Seniors, such a feeling. In recognition and in deep appreciation of his unfaltering loyalty and guidance, we dedicate the 1956 Skyline with affection and gratitude to . . . Mr. N. H. Forbes 4 4

Lefever A Message From the Principal Mr. Johnson This edition of the Skyline com¬ memorates two great events in the history of Waynesboro High School: the completion of the first addition to our building with its enlarged and improved facilities, and the begin¬ ning of a period of great increase in our enrollment. Overnight, as it were, we almost doubled the num¬ ber of pupils. May these events be a symbol of the years which lie ahead of you. May you continue to grow mentally, morally, and spiritually. May you always strive for the completion of bigger and better things. May there be for you ever broadening horizons; ever increasing opportu¬ nities. May you have the understanding and the courage to seize your op¬ portunities and to make the most of them. { 6 i . J° J. L. Johnson, Principal
