Elementary School Principal Dear Annual Staff: You have been building for your future all through these years that you have been in school. The bricks of knowledge have been laid one by one in your building of life since the day you entered the first grade. Your building can be only as strong as the weakest brick indt. You may expect to reach the age of seventy years according to statistical reports . Eighteen of these years will be used in gaining a high school education and possibly four more will be used in college. These twenty-two years will decide whether you will construct a building which will stand up through the remaining forty-eight or will crumble to the ground with the first test of its strength. Yours truly, v £ £ Bill Gillham

High School Principal Congratulations to our annual staff and the sponsor, Mrs. Jessie Pass, on being able to illustrate to us so ably some of the events of the past school year. They have been a very fine group to work with in our school. The recent White House Conference on Education has helped focus the eyes of the nation on our schools. The more interest that is created in the works and products of our schools, the more likely are we to see improvements initiated. Our future greatness or failure will be attributed to our youth of today. We as parents, citizens, and teachers should do some serious thinking on how we may help our youth and their schools do a better job. Without more help our schools cannot keep pace with the constant demand for better living in today's modern world. You can help by being interested and well informed on the problems facing our own schools and children in the Wilson Community. Sincerely,
