Page Two High Life i .S! iJ 'Each And All'.... Awards Day, the Senior Tea, Class Day, the Prom, May Day, the last concert, the last club meeting, the last noisy lunch period, the last athletic contest are now forever memories. The Class of ’58 awaits only the graduation ceremony. Yet all these rituals—even graduation itself—mean nothing; what is important is past-more than a few days past, too. Funny how the ordinary things—the things we slighted—are those that really count most: the weekly grind, the daily homework assignment, the thoughtful student-teacher discussion, the extra fifteen minutes of studying that made it a job well done. The Class of ’58 has not always done everything it could; and it has not always worked together as it should. Some have added color and taste to the solution lab elled “Class of ’58”, but some have pre cipitated out. Commencement, however, does not mean the ending, but rather the beginning. “Ring uot the old ring in the new ...” These “bright young citizens of tomor row” may not be so bright or such good citizens, but they are going . . . they do not walk cautiously or even amble casually; they run to meet the future. It would be faithless to do otherwise! For it is He who is constant, and we who are not. Should we not trust that our tomorrows will be at least as good as our todays have been day after day, day after day, day after day after day? Senior High is even now coming into per spective as to what it essentially is—just a stepping stone^—to other stepping stones. Yet with every step one sees a step farther still. Yet the Class of ’58 does not doubt that many of its members will ride triumphantly through the Broad-Way-Gate, and but few slowly tread the straight and narrow; that many will be famous or infamous, and still others die unknown and unrewarded. The future which is already casting its long, misty shadow over this Senior Class does not add up all positive or all negative, but rather a grand total of the two. One experience alone or one action alone will not permanently tip the scales either way. One must weigh all—“each and all.” FOR THEIR COOPERATION during the last year, HIGH LIFE wishes to thaitk WHIR LIGIG, the Student Council, the Boys’ and Girls’ Athletic Departments, A. P. Routh, and the many other faculty members and students who were so willing to help with “the little things.” Council Corner By Sandra Holderness The Spring Prom is being held tonight in the boys’ gym. The Southerners are furnishing our music, and we want all of you to come. We are having delicious re freshments served free by the PTSA. The constitution committee has done an excellent job this year under the chairmanship of Meyressa Hughes. The council appreciates the co-opera tion of all the home rooms during the discussion of your school constitution. It was passed by a majority in more than two-thirds of the home rooms. I wish to repeat a few things I said in my farewell speech. It has been a privilege, a very great privilege, to serve as your president, and I want to thank each of you for your understanding, co operation, and your faith in me. I wish the very best of luck to your new offita and council members, and I know Ik under their leadership you will have very successful year. May God be nU you all the days of your life.
