We, the class of 1!)47, express to our parents, teachers, school board, underclassmen, friends, and all who have con- tributed to the school, our sincere appreciation. We leave with a broad outlook on life. Let's make this a better world in which to live! Shirley Hill '47 TO THE CLASS OF 1 )47 At this time, as your class advisor, I would like to take the time and space in your yearbook to make a statement. You are now leaving high school and will follow various paths of activities. I beg of you to be contented with few material things. Possess a few friends rather than desiring the cheers of the crowd; love truth rather than glory; always be helpful to all who seek your aid; measure your service in terms of the power to serve. Remember the training of your parents, friends and teachers. Keep your bodies fit to become God’s holy temple, remembering that no act in your life should injure your health or character. Stand for something worth while in your community. Live in such a way, my young friends, that all who come into your presence may be glad that their lives have touched yours, even for a brief period. Seward F. French, Principal

EDITORIAL I wish to express my thoughts of the grand year we have had in Wells River High School during 1946 and 1947. No year has been any more successful than this, and it will long be remembered. There have been many improvements in the building, and many new facilities have been added which make it more convenient. We owe much credit to the wonderful staff of teachers we have, who have devoted their time and effort to the students. Any one of the teachers could be consulted by the students without embarrassment, and they were given sound advice based on good judgment. We were fortunate this year having as our principal, Mr. Seward French. Mr. French is most considerate of all students, and we were glad to have him with us. He not only taught us but helped and guided us throughout the year. To have a school so well supervised makes it much pleasanter to attend. We had a very successful year in athletics, thanks to Mr. French, Coach Warren Goodie, and Coach Mrs. Gibson. New equipment was purchased, and the boys’ basketball team was able to buy new uniforms. We hope to see the girls’ team sparkling in new uniforms next year as a sum of money has been set aside for this purpose. This spring we were very fortunate to have Mr. Stone for the boys’ baseball and the girls’ softball. A large majority of the students turned out for athletics and physical ed. this year. We had a grand time in everything we did. A new telephone was installed in the office, which was a great improvement. A hot lunch program was arranged for the students, supervised under the Home Economics Instruc- tor, Mrs. Gibson, and Mrs. Seward French. Also many very interesting films have been shown at school. From our experiences throughout the year we cannot help but have a better understanding of life with its requirements for the future. 4
