Principal To the Seniors: This is my last written word to you as the class of l956. We have enjoyed your companionship for a number of years, you have contributed your share to the spirit of Wilson High School, we are hoping that you will retain the bonds of affection for Wilson through the years. As you leave the bright and joyous scenes of high school days, you will take with you golden memories ot friendships, of work and play, of laughter, of song and music, of the joy that comes from working and playing together. You are approaching your Commencement. It is truly a Commencement, for you are about to enter into a broader, more challenging period of living, and you will continue to learn more about the ways of God, the ways of men, and the ways of nature. The way will not always be pleasant, there will be sunlight and shadow in the path ahead. If you descend into the valley of despair and heartache, we hope that Wilson has given you strength. When you toil upward toward the purple heights, and golden peaks of happy, joyous, successful living, we hope that Wilson has given you the vision that will enable you to hope and to aspire. Our sincere prayer for you is that you may enjoy the fruits of your labors to the fullest, and may your lives be blest with the material and spiritual blessings that make for success. As ever, your principal GEORGE W. GLASGOW Mr. G. W. Glasgow
