Because she has learned the secret of treating each student as an individual and making him feel that he is someone special, Mrs. Smith has won the con-- fidence and the love of her W. M. H. S. hchildrenf' Whether a student ap- proaches her for help, information, or personal advice, he knows he will be greeted with courtesy and kindness. Sacrificial efforts in helping to establish the Student Council and the Honor Society have made 1954-55 a busy year for Mrs. Smith. In two more years W. M. H. S. will losc a conscientious educator when she retires. For her Qentleness and service, the W. M. H. seniors dedicate the '55 Kf?b6lairC t0 Mrs. Margaret Smith.

To refreshed students the new year brought the organization of the Tusquahoma Chapter of the National Honor Society, and-as always-mid-term examinations. Another first was chalked up for Rebeland as the basketball team brought home West Monroe High's first trophy. Suddenly the inhabitants of Rebeland began to succumb to the spell of little hints of green that had struggled through the clay of the campus, the yearly siege of spring fever had begun! In order to prevent an epidemic, all W. M. H. S. forces combined to re- wt vive students with the senior play, conventions, the science fair 5 spring training for the band, the Rebelettes, and the football team, and the onset of the baseball, golf, and track season. Seniors realized how near graduation was, when the annual senior assembly popped up. Then in rapid succession final exams, the vesper service, and the senior trip to New Orleans paved the way to May 24, a crowded auditorium, and graduation. As Rebeland's citizens received their report cards 'cfor keeps, seniors wondered how '54-'55 could be gone already. But even as seniors sighed fa littlej and may- be even cried fa very littlej their thoughts were on the future-jobs, college, adult life. For Rebeland is a land of the future-planning, dreaming, working to- ward producing better citizens of Rebeland and, ulti- mately, of the United States. , l -F-aaa , 1,. . nu we Env ne' '5'f:!3q 'B' '- ' ' MV . 0,0603 I w Q 0 f u I I Vic X Ht' ' W 1 N99 0 lil 356' i L X NN.-rg 4 at
